​Bruce County recognized as one of Southwestern Ontario’s Top Employers

Bruce County has been recognized as one of Southwestern Ontario’s Top Employers in the 2025 regional “Canada’s Top 100 Employers” competition.

The announcement made Feb. 5 highlights some of the reasons why the county was selected:
 

• Bruce County encourages professional growth by reimbursing employees for the cost of tuition fees and textbooks for courses related to their positions, as well as the costs associated with attending conferences and learning events - each department also co-ordinates development days on professional growth, skills enhancement and team building
• Bruce County helps employees save for the future with contributions to a defined benefit pension plan and provides retirement planning seminars to share information on transitioning from the workforce
• Bruce County surveys employees bi-annually to assess psychological health and safety in the workplace and offers coverage for mental health care as part of its benefits plan, to $1,000 per year

The “Canada’s Top 100 Employers” new Southwestern Ontario regional competition covers the large region between Lake Huron/Georgian Bay and Lake Erie, excluding the Greater Toronto Area and Niagara - the same area that roughly comprises the “519” area code.

The selection process for this competition assessed Bruce County based on eight key criteria: workplace environment, work atmosphere and social culture, health and financial benefits, vacation policies, employee communications, performance management, training and development, and community involvement.

“Bruce County is honoured to be recognized as one of Southwestern Ontario’s Top Employers,” said Jenn Robinson, director of human resources. “The award reflects on our ongoing commitment to creating a supportive and dynamic workplace. Our employees are our greatest asset, and we strive to provide an environment where everyone can feel value and succeed. Opportunities are limitless here and a career with the county is worth exploring.”
