SIGA named a top employer for third year in a row

SIGA has once again earned a spot as a Top Saskatchewan Employer, awarded by Canada’s Top 100 Employers project. Now in its 15th year, Saskatchewan’s Top Employers is a special designation that recognizes employers who offer the most progressive and forwardthinking programs.

Zane Hansen, SIGA’s President and CEO, is thrilled about the recognition and what it means for the organization.

‘Our people are our foundation. At SIGA, we’re committed to investing in our employees and creating a culture where our employees are empowered to do great things to advance their careers and personal goals. We work to build capacity in our people and foster meaningful career paths, offering exceptional training and career development opportunities as well as competitive compensation and benefits.’

The list of Saskatchewan’s Top Employers is based on an evaluation of eight common pillars: (1) Physical Workplace; (2) Work Atmosphere & Communications; (3) Health, Financial & Family Benefits; (4) Vacation & Time Off; (5) Employee Engagement; (6) Performance Management; (7) Training & Skills Development; and (8) Community Involvement. Organizations are compared to similar companies in their same industries.

SIGA is a First Nation-owned and -operated organization and an equal opportunity employer that takes pride in our workforce, which is comprised of 64 per cent First Nation people. SIGA employs 1,900 people in full-time, part-time and casual positions.
