As summer comes to an end, and schools once again reopen, we would like to wish all of you a happy and healthy Labour Day weekend! We are grateful to partner with organizations committed to providing great work environments and ongoing support.

As many pandemic restrictions begin to lift, it is important to communicate with transparency and engage employees. Just as the onset of pandemic restrictions and lockdowns were difficult, it is safe to assume that reopening will bring forth struggles of its own. Now, more than ever, employers should provide consistent and honest communication, conduct regular check-ins, and find opportunities to motivate and engage their employees. https://anchor-hr.com/blog/how-to-engage-retain-employees

We wish everyone a safe and happy Canada Day! We are proud to live in a country with highly educated and talented people who value respect and equity.

Happy Birthday, Canada!

Everyone has a basic need to be treated with dignity and respect. In the workplace, it is important to build a mission-oriented culture where teams actively seek out each other's opinions and feel safe speaking up.
