We are pleased to announce that Kinross Gold has been named one of Greater Toronto’s Top Employers for the eighth consecutive year!

The award, published annually by The Globe and Mail, celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, and recognizes companies with exceptional employee programs and forward-thinking workplace policies that support the diverse needs of their workforce.

This year, Kinross Gold was recognized for its wide range of programs and policies that foster connectivity, relationship-building, career development, and employee engagement, reinforcing our first priority of Putting People First, and cultivating a culture where employees feel welcome and valued.

“The average tenure at Kinross Gold is approximately five years and it’s because of the culture,” said Maria Rodmell, Vice-President, Human Resource Operations, Toronto. “It’s very warm, friendly and flexible, and gives employees a lot of opportunities for advancement.”

Some examples of the programs and policies that earned Kinross Gold a spot as one of Greater Toronto’s Top Employers include: 

• Leadership Development Programs that provide employees with the opportunity to grow across levels, tenure, experience and expertise; and
• Maternity and parental leave policies that include generous top-up payments and phased approaches for return to work including flexible hours and gradual increases to full workdays upon return from leave

“I’ve never worked anywhere like this before,” said Amy Moran, Human Resources Manager, Toronto. “We enjoy each other’s company, we work well together, and I feel really appreciated as an employee. One of our values is Putting People First. Other places may say that, but you really feel it here. You feel appreciated.”
