FCC again recognized among Canada’s best employers
Farm Credit Canada continues to be among the nation’s best employers, according to the annual Aon Hewitt Best Employers study.
“FCC is a great place to work. Our employees are passionate about agriculture and we care about our customers,” said Michael Hoffort, FCC president and CEO. “The Aon Hewitt survey represents positive feedback from our employees and is part of our ongoing journey toward keeping everyone focused and engaged in advancing the business of agriculture.”
“We are a business built on strong relationships with our customers, and employees across the organization are extremely proud to play a role in the success of Canada’s agriculture industry,” he said.
This is the second consecutive year Aon Hewitt has recognized FCC as a Platinum employer. To be selected for the Platinum level, organizations have to demonstrate strong performance in the areas of employee engagement, leadership, performance culture and employment brand.
“When our employees are fully engaged, we create a better work and business environment for everyone, and we are able to contribute in a meaningful way to Canadian agriculture,” Hoffort said.
Feedback from Aon Hewitt’s study has helped FCC focus more on making it easier for employees to do their jobs in order to better serve customers, said Greg Honey, FCC executive vice president and chief human resources officer.
“We are committed to listening to our employees and ensuring they continue to be partners in creating a work environment that supports a positive customer service experience and strong relationships,” said Honey, noting 85 per cent of FCC employees responded to Aon Hewitt’s survey.
FCC is a self-sustaining federal Crown corporation with more than 1,700 employees working from coast to coast, in over 100 offices.
