National Leasing Named Among the Top 50 Best Small and Medium Employers in Canada

WINNIPEG, Feb. 8, 2012 /CNW/ - National Leasing, a recognized leader in equipment financing, is pleased to be named among the Top 50 Best Small and Medium Employers in Canada for 2012. Recipients of this achievement are being featured in the March issue of PROFIT magazine, available at newsstands today.

"Our people and a collective commitment to continuous improvement are the cornerstones of National Leasing's success," says Joel Neufeld, Corporate Business Analyst at National Leasing. "Our placement among the Top 50 Best Small & Medium Employers in Canada for a fourth consecutive year demonstrates the benefit of using employee feedback to enhance our workplace. We used feedback from last year's study to enhance our employee wellness initiatives and offer more education programs and corporate-wide team building events. We believe National Leasing delivers a work environment that's second to none."

The Best Small and Medium Employers in Canada study, now in its seventh year, is designed for Canadian companies with 50 to 399 employees and more than three years of business history. The results of employee opinion surveys are used to determine the placement of participating organizations. The surveys are largely designed to measure employee engagement. Organizations with high employee engagement enjoy tangible benefits, including a greater ability to attract and retain key talent.

The study is conducted by the Queen's University School of Business with the assistance of AON Hewitt. More information about the Best Small and Medium Employers in Canada is available online at:
