Creating an Award-Winning Company Culture

When planning a career move, company culture is often one of the top criteria that people look for during a job hunt. At Wesgroup Equipment, we are proud of our company culture. Our culture is friendly, supportive and celebrates the successes of both our employees and company.

We have 5 core values that guide our actions and help us build our company culture. These values inspire the work that we do and help us provide an exceptional experience within our teams, to our customers and fellow businesses.

  • Build Trust
  • Be a Team Player
  • Be Customer-Focused
  • Support Community
  • Deliver Results

And employees who live our values don't go unnoticed. Through awards programs and weekly company "shout outs", we make sure to recognize employees who regularly demonstrate our values in the workplace.

Our Social Committee and Health & Wellness Committee host company events throughout the year. From barbecues, luncheons, and fitness challenges, we want to give our employees the opportunity to step away from their desks, interact with their team members and celebrate being a great place to work.

Our commitment to our people and culture has helped us become an award-winning company. It is also a reason we were selected as one of Canada's Best Managed Companies in 2019, and are proud be among the many winners who have retained the status for 2020!

A full list of Canada's Best Managed Companies for 2020 is available on bestmanagedcompanies.ca.
