MISSISSAUGA, Ontario – August 10, 2021 – Rexall is proud to be recognized with the prestigious Great Place to Work® Certification after a thorough, independent analysis conducted by Great Place to Work Institute® Canada. This certification is based on direct feedback from employees, provided as part of an extensive and anonymous survey about their workplace experience.    

“It brings me an immense sense of pride for Rexall to be recognized with the Great Place to Work® Certification,” said Nicolas Caprio, President, Rexall. “Every day, our dedicated, passionate and caring team members are encouraged to bring their authentic selves to work. Today’s designation proves to myself and our leadership team that we are successful in creating a culture where our employees feel valued, recognized and supported in attaining their true potential.”

This latest recognition is part of a series of designations that highlight Rexall as a world class employer that empowers and celebrates its employees, including the 2021 Innovative HR Award, the 2021 Forbes Canada’s Best Employer award and the 2020 Canadian HR Team of the Year Gold Winner award. And, for the fourth consecutive year, Rexall private label products have been recognized for the Retail Council of Canada Grand Prix New Product Awards. Rexall’s commitment to being the best place to work is driven by our ICARE values of Integrity, Customer-First, Accountability, Respect and Excellence.

Nancy Fonseca, Senior Vice President of Great Place to Work® Canada, says that a great workplace is about the level of trust that employees experience in their leaders, the level of pride they have in their jobs, and the extent to which they enjoy their colleagues. “Our data shows that great workplaces benefit from stronger financial performance, reduced turnover, and better customer satisfaction than their peers. What’s more, work environments with trust at the foundation are ripe for innovation, agility, resilience and efficiency,” Fonseca said.

At Rexall, our corporate and store teams unite, collaborate, and proudly execute on our shared mission every day. We’re not only a health and wellness destination for Canadians, we’re a talent destination for the best and brightest in the business.
