Hyundai Canada named on 2019 list of Best Workplaces™ for Women

Hyundai Auto Canada Corp. has been named as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces™ for Women in 2019 by Great Place to Work®, the leading authority on high-trust, high-performance workplace cultures.

This recognition furthers Hyundai’s position as a leader in promoting career growth for women in the automotive sector and encouraging more female representation in the field.

Best Workplaces™ for Women certification is based on direct feedback from employees of the hundreds of organizations surveyed by Great Place to Work®. Select companies are acknowledged in this category based on in-depth analysis of the overall Trust Index score from female respondents, as well as the programs and practices in place that promote the fair treatment and advancement of women.

To be eligible for this list, organizations must be Great Place to Work Certified™ in the past year, have a minimum of 15 female employees and have at least 90% of all employees agree that their workplace is safe and people are treated fairly regardless of their gender.

“A strong corporate culture is only created when every team member is presented with equal and ample opportunities. Fostering an environment that supports the development and wellbeing of our employees is always a top priority,” says Don Romano, President and CEO of Hyundai Auto Canada Corp. “I am incredibly proud of Hyundai Canada’s accomplishments and continued progress to make this a great place to work for everyone.”

Hyundai Canada offers a wide variety of learning and career growth programs for all employees including subject matter expert sessions, job shadowing opportunities and tuition assistance. The organization has recently established a dedicated women’s employee resource group that will provide support, development and community involvement opportunities for members.
