Mosaic Forest Management Again Named One of BC’s Top Employers
Nanaimo, BC – Mosaic Forest Management is pleased to be recognized as one of British Columbia’s Top Employers for 2023 for the second consecutive year. The award recipients were announced in a special magazine published today and featured in the Vancouver Sun and on BC’s Top Employer’s website.
"Being honoured as one of British Columbia's Top Employers for the second year in a row is welcome recognition of the incredible team of dedicated professionals who help Mosaic grow every day," said Mosaic's President and CEO, Rob Gough. "We work hard building and fostering a workplace culture of safety and sustainability at the core of everything we do, where everyone feels they belong and can contribute their authentic selves in our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.”
Mosaic was selected for its commitment to First Nations partnerships, sustainable forest stewardship, collaborative, non-hierarchical culture, and its support of community organizations across Coastal BC. Mosaic was the first forestry company in British Columbia to secure Progressive Aboriginal Relations Certification from the Canadian Council for Aboriginal Business and the first forestry company globally to achieve certification of our carbon footprint from the UK’s Carbon Trust.
Supported by Mosaic’s progressive corporate culture, employees continue to chart new ways of delivering value from the landbase. This includes the company’s BigCoast Forest Climate Initiative, which has deferred harvest on 40,000 hectares of old forests to bring high-quality, nature-based carbon credits to market. Mosaic also remains focused on achieving its science-based, net-zero carbon target by 2035 across all its operations.
Added Gough, “Our Top Employer recognition reconfirms that what we’re doing resonates with our employees, First Nations partners and contractor workforce. It will continue to inspire our actions and leadership in our commitment to sustainable forest management.”
BC’s Top Employers is in its 18th year as an annual competition that recognizes British Columbia employers that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work. The judges evaluate the most progressive and forward-thinking BC employers using eight criteria, which have remained consistent since the project’s inception: Workplace; Work Atmosphere and Social; Health, Financial and Family Benefits; Vacation and Time Off; Employee Communications; Performance Management; Training and Skills Development; and Community Involvement.
The full report on all this year’s winners is online at BC’s Top Employer website.
