Canfor has been named one of BC’s Top Employers for 2016 and has now received this recognition four years in a row.

As BC’s biggest forestry company and a leader in the forest products industry, Canfor’s ability to attract and retain talented people is one of the most important factors to ensure the company’s future success. To meet this goal, the company constantly reviews its practices and programs to confirm they meet the changing needs of its employees. Participating in this type of competition is one of many ways to make sure they are on the right path.

To make this honourable list, companies must demonstrate that they are leaders in their industries, offering exceptional places to work.

Some of the reasons why Canfor was selected includes the support provided for life after work and retirement planning, and for their commitment to lifelong learning through internships, in-house apprenticeships, mentoring, subsidies for professional accreditation and other educational opportunities.

One such program called Canfor College, a training and development framework that provides its employees with access to opportunities to further develop their skills. Through experience, exposure and education, Canfor College plays an important role in setting employees up for future success in their careers.
