National Bank Once Again Ranked Among 50 Best Employers in Canada

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwire - Oct. 18, 2012) - National Bank (TSX:NA) is proud to announce it has been named to the list of the "50 Best Employers in Canada" for an eighth year. This prestigious list, which is compiled every year by Aon Hewitt, measures employee engagement across the country.

"I'd like to thank our employees for being so committed to the Bank. This recognition provides us with even greater motivation to help them reach their full potential," declared Louis Vachon, President and Chief Executive Officer at National Bank. "There's no question that through their active participation in the One client, one bank business development strategy we have been pursuing since 2008, employees are helping to roll out the red carpet for all our clients."

National Bank has been taking part in Aon Hewitt's survey since it was first launched. It is based on an opinion survey conducted with the employees, leaders and human resources professionals of participating businesses. The Bank uses the insight gained from its results to improve its human resources practices, so as to remain one of Canada's top employers.

This latest achievement, which reflects the engagement and commitment of its 20,000 employees, comes on the heels of several other distinctions the Bank has received in 2012, including:

  • Montreal's Top Employers (Mediacorp Canada)
  • Lipper Awards for its mutual funds
  • Best Employers in Quebec (Aon Hewitt)
  • Canada's Best Diversity Employers (Mediacorp Canada)
  • World's Strongest Banks (Bloomberg Markets)
