Toronto, ON - April 7, 2026 -- Assurant Canada has been named one of the 2026 Best Workplaces™ in Canada and one of the 2026 Best Workplaces™ for Women, earning two prestigious distinctions from Great Place to Work® (GPTW), the global authority on workplace culture.

These recognitions are especially meaningful because they are grounded in direct employee feedback. To qualify, organizations must first earn Great Place to Work Certification™, based on GPTW’s Trust Index© survey. Seventy-five percent of each organization's final score comes from confidential employee responses. The remaining 25 percent reflects the quality and effectiveness of the company's programs and policies. To be named a Best Workplace™ for Women, companies must additionally demonstrate that employees feel they are treated fairly and equitably, regardless of gender.

“We’re honoured to be recognized as a Best Workplace in Canada and a Best Workplace for Women,” said Paul Cosgrove, President, Assurant Canada. “These awards reflect the culture our people build every day — one grounded in inclusion, trust, and shared success. We remain deeply committed to creating an environment where every employee feels supported, respected, and empowered to grow.”

These achievements reinforce Assurant Canada’s continued focus on cultivating an inclusive, high-performance workplace. They also add to a growing list of accolades for Assurant Canada, underscoring its commitment to employee wellbeing, equity, and opportunity.
