Employees

Because our employees are so important to us and because we are always on the lookout for new, best-in-class professional resources, we have implemented a series of initiatives to help foster quality of life, success and upward mobility opportunities for everyone, including:

  • Highly competitive compensation programs
  • Incentives and tools that make it possible for all of our employees to fully realize their potential and meet new challenges within our organization
  • A comprehensive benefits package
  • Work-life balance initiatives (flextime option with core hours, shorter work weeks, summer hours, personal leave for important matters, etc.)
  • Psychological assistance services, for employees and families
  • Measures and policies to promote a safe, healthy work environment
  • Special access to physical activities and fitness centres
  • Lunchtime health and wellness lectures
  • Celebrations and community activities, such as our children's Christmas party and our holiday reception.



Pay equity: An established practice
SITQ has always complied with all applicable legislation pertaining to pay equity. After the amended Pay Equity Act was passed in May 2009, we reviewed and revamped our job classes, before determining the gender predominance of each, in accordance with the criteria set out in the Act. Once this was completed, we were able to conclude that pay equity has been maintained throughout our organization, including in those jobs associated with hotel, apartment and retirement housing properties, which were integrated into our portfolio in September 2009.
