“Our organisation takes great pride in being among the ranks of Canada’s Top Employers for Young People,” says Tim Lambert, Chief Executive Officer at Egg Farmers of Canada. “We recognise the immense value of having young people join our workplace and we offer a tailored approach to support their professional growth.”

A custom approach to onboarding new staff, personalised training plans, a leadership development programme and volunteer opportunities are among the reasons why young people thrive in Egg Farmers of Canada’s work environment. Their employees can also access in-house training services, contribute to a range of cross-functional project teams and take part in networking and wellness activities, like their popular Coffee with the CEO programme and monthly yoga classes.

“Our approach to employee engagement and human resources complements our vision to be a leader in Canada’s food system and in our community. We believe that knowledgeable and engaged people positively affect the long-term sustainability of our industry, and we have shaped our employee-driven programmes to empower our team accordingly,” adds Tim Lambert.
