HOUSTON,
Texas, June 17, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Great Place
to Work® Canada has named Venterra
on their 2024 Best Workplaces™ for Mental Wellness list for the
second year in a row based on survey feedback provided by
individuals employed at hundreds of companies across the
country.
An organization needs to have met the Great Place to Work
Certified™ standard and have exceptionally high scores on the Trust
Index survey to be eligible for a "Best Workplace™" list, and,
in the case of the 2024 Best Workplaces™ for Mental Wellness
recognition, at least 80% of survey participants needed to agree
with the statement "This is a psychologically and emotionally
healthy place to work."
In Venterra's most recent survey of its Canadian team members,
the organization significantly surpassed that metric and had 96% of
survey participants agree with the statement "Taking everything
into account, I would say this is a great place to work."
"I am very pleased that Venterra has been recognized once again
for our commitment to mental wellness, a pledge we reinforced last
year by instituting an annual mental wellness day," Venterra CEO,
John Foresi. "This initiative,
providing paid time off, is indicative of our ongoing dedication to
the mental health and job satisfaction of our colleagues. "
"The well-being of our Venterra family is paramount, and
fostering mental wellness is key to our collective health and
prosperity," said Venterra Chairman, Andrew
Stewart. "We've witnessed firsthand the transformative
impact this focus has on our organization, and it remains a top
priority for us as we continue to build a supportive and thriving
work culture."
Venterra's Canada office has
been recognized multiple times by the Great Place to Work®
Institute. In addition to the 2024 Best Workplaces™ for Mental
Wellness win, it has also been named one of the Best
Workplaces™ for Professional Development, one of the Best
Workplaces™ for Today's Youth, one of the Best Workplaces™ in
Real Estate & Property Development, and was listed as one of
the overall Best Workplaces™ in Canada. Explore all of Venterra's recognitions
