CGI receives Top Employers in Europe 2014 certification

CGI (TSX:GIB.A) (NYSE:GIB) has been certified as a 2014 European Top Employer by
the Top Employers Institute. This certification is awarded only to organizations
that receive local certification in more than five countries in a specific
region. CGI's European certified operations are the UK, France, Germany, Belgium
and Finland.


A comprehensive, independent research study found that CGI provides exceptional
working conditions for its professionals, nurturing and developing talent at all
levels of the company. CGI also demonstrates outstanding HR leadership. The
certification recognizes CGI's strong commitment to its members and its company
dream, which embodies the core principles of work enjoyment and company
ownership.


"We are delighted to receive this award and to be recognized for the
collaborative and progressive working environment we strive to create for our
members," said Joao Baptista, CGI's president for Nordics, Southern Europe and
South Americas. "We refer to our professionals as 'members' because anyone who
joins our team is invited to become a company owner and shareholder through our
share purchase plan. Our members also benefit from CGI's Constitution, which
outlines our dream of creating an environment in which we enjoy working together
and, as owners, contribute to building a company we can be proud of."


CGI's certification resulted from a stringent assessment process that included
an international best practices survey and an internal audit of CGI's compliance
with required standards established across five European markets. CGI excelled
in the following compulsory employee-focused criteria: 




--  Primary benefits 
--  Secondary benefits and working conditions 
--  Career development 
--  Cultural management

About Top Employers 

The Top Employers Certification Programme is an objective, internationally

with each participating organisation completing the HR Benchmark survey. This is
followed by a rigorous audit, conducted by international audit firm Grant
Thornton, into the quality and depth of the research completed and certification
scoring application by the CRF Institute. The research programme ends with a
Certification in which the Top Employers in each country are recognised and
awarded; before comparative HR insight is provided back to all participants (not
only Top Employer certified organisations). The insight is designed to assist
the HR executive in improving the employee experience, engagement and attraction
goals. The programme scores each participating organisation against an objective
rating standard across the five HR dimensions: Primary Benefits, Secondary
Benefits and Working Conditions, Training and Development, Career Development
and Company Culture. The research methodology has been endorsed by the Dutch
