KITCHENER, ONTARIO – For the second consecutive year, Christie has been named one of Canada's Greenest Employers by the editors of Mediacorp Canada Inc. a Toronto publishing firm. The winners were announced April 22 in a special supplement in the Globe and Mail and on Eluta.ca, Mediacorp's job search engine.
"Christie is honored to receive this award and it is a reflection of our commitment to the preservation of the environment today and for future generations," said Gerry Remers, president and chief operating officer, Christie Digital Systems Canada Inc. "We have numerous initiatives in place that are reducing our environmental footprint and will continue to explore new options for recycling and the reduction of waste."
Each employer was evaluated by: (1) the unique environmental initiatives and programs they have developed; (2) the extent to which they have been successful in reducing the organization's own environmental footprint; (3) the degree to which their employees are involved in these programs and whether they contribute any unique skills; and (4) the extent to which these initiatives have become linked to the employer's public identity and whether they attract new people to the organization.
Canada's Greenest Employer Awards will be presented at the MaRS Collaboration Center in Toronto, Monday May 30, 2011 beginning at 5:00 p.m.
