Maritime Travel has been recognized as a Mercer Best Employer Canada for 2024.
Mercer, the largest HR consulting firm in the world, identified Maritime Travel as excelling across critical people factors: employee engagement, the organization’s agility, engaging leadership, and talent focus.
The award recognizes organizations that have transformed their people practices to drive better business results. Part of Mercer’s measurements involved an independent survey of all Maritime Travel employees.
“We know that our travel agents are exceptional team members,” said Gary Gaudry, President of Maritime Travel Inc. “And we’re especially delighted to know they are also among the most engaged workforces in the country. This is particularly rewarding when you consider the global workforce challenges of the travel industry the past few years.”
Some of the award’s benchmarks include employee’s perceptions of senior leadership, people-manager effectiveness, enabling employee productivity, and valuing and appreciating employees.
