Halogen Software has been named one of Canada’s Top 100 Small & Medium Employers for 2016 for its company culture and innovate human resources and employee development programs.
Now entering its fourth year, Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers evaluates and ranks the nation’s best workplaces based on several criteria such as social and physical workplace dynamics, performance management programs, development opportunities, perks and benefits, and community involvement.
“We’re thrilled to be recognized for providing an exceptional workplace for our employees. At Halogen, our mission is to help organizations win with talent. And the same is true at our own organization because we believe our employees are our greatest competitive differentiator,” says Dominique Jones, Chief People Officer, Halogen Software. “Employee development and fostering a culture of continuous feedback and recognition is an integral part of our culture. Our employees enable us to achieve outstanding business outcomes and fantastic outcomes for our customers.”
Based in Ottawa, the award acknowledges Halogen’s rapid growth with the addition of 130 new full-time positions in the past two years. Halogen’s innovative corporate and HR programs also contributed to its recognition as a top place to work. Some of these programs include:
• The company has created a culture of recognition and feedback, honoring exceptional performance through various awards, including peer-to-peer recognition, long-service awards, and the Halogen PRO award, for employees who have outperformed their responsibility or demonstrated originality.
• Halogen’s Emerging Leaders Program, which identifies high potential employees and invests in specialized development opportunities to prepare them for future leadership positions.
