Homes by Avi - Top 50 Best Small and Medium Employer in Canada 1/19/2009

Award Winning Builder Ranks 47 on the List! 

Homes by Avi is pleased to be named among the Top 50 Best Small and Medium Employers in Canada.  

Avi Amir, president and founder of Homes by Avi, is extremely proud of this accomplishment and considers this a great way to start the New Year. He is humbled by this national recognition especially since it was a direct result of his employee’s feedback.

Becoming a Top Best Small and Medium Employer is a very detailed and competitive process.  This national awards program recognizes top employers with between 50 and 400 employees. This study mirrors the renowned Best Employer in Canada initiative run by partner, Hewitt Associates; however, caters to smaller businesses. 

The rankings are primarily determined using the results from Employee Opinion Surveys.  Here, 18 key engagement drivers are detailed and analyzed.  The evaluation process also includes the assessment of organization practices and perspectives from the leadership team.  This year, more than 250 companies across Canada registered to participate in the study. 

Study partners include Queen's School of Business, Queen’s Centre for Business Venturing and Hewitt Associates
