Teldon Named One of the Best Companies to Work for in Canada

TORONTO, ON--(Marketwired - April 22, 2016) - Teldon Media Group, is honoured to announce the company has been recognized as number 15 out of 100 best places to work for in Canada. The fully integrated, full-service premium calendar producer earned a top spot in the annual 100 Best Workplaces in Canada by the Great Place to Work Institute, a global research, consulting and training firm that annually recognizes companies in more than 50 countries who have created exceptional culture within the workplace. 

"We strive to have one of the best workplace cultures in the country," said Ryan Benn, President of Teldon Media Group. "Whether it's in business, school, sport or life, we firmly believe the experience should be one based on fun. We are happy to say we have the kind of workplace where people brag to their friends about how amazing it is to work here."

Each year, the Great Place to Work Institute awards a select group of companies in Canada the Best Workplaces in Canada award. The 2016 award winners were announced at the Institute's national conference in Toronto on April 21; the companies awarded this year have managed to create a culture where employees trust the people they work for, have pride in what they do, and enjoy the people they work with.

"At the heart of Teldon's success is its people, who are passionate about what they do, and who are supported in everything they do," said Benn. "I'd much rather have a culture that resembles a locker room than a board room. I'm incredibly proud of our team, and we're all proud to call Teldon home."

With a legacy of over 47 years, Teldon has built a dedicated approach to corporate culture through the celebration of each of the 75-team members, representing a wide array of cultural and age demographics. Perks include onsite fitness facilities & personal training, daily walking clubs, cultural celebrations, fresh smoothies, plus ongoing weekly social events. Charitable community initiatives also play a prominent role, with Teldon and its people supporting several non-profit organizations including The Richmond Sharing Farm, Mission Possible Vancouver, A Better Life Foundation, Global Women, and more.

As a result of Teldon's focus on workplace culture, employee turnover for 2014 and 2015 was less than five per cent, and the company has seen EBITDA growth of 40% year over year. In 2015, Teldon produced over 11 million personalized calendars for international clientele including Porsche, Toyota, New York Life, Re/Max and Royal LePage.
