About Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers:
Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers is a competition that recognizes the small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that offer the country’s best workplaces and forward-thinking human resources policies. Canada’s SME sector is tremendously important as it is responsible for over half of the country’s private-sector employment. The SME definition used by Statistics Canada was used to determine eligibility, limiting the competition to private-sector commercial organizations with under 500 employees.
