So we're proud to report we've been named as an inaugural TELUS Business Community Champion, for our substantial community impact through creative, passionate giving and inspiring leadership. Some of the achievements noted by the award include donating over 6,000 child car seats to those who may otherwise have gone without, encouraging safer driving in residential areas by distributing over 5,000 'Slow Down, Kids Playing' signs, dedicating 900 hours of staff volunteer time and matching employees' donations to the United Way. One of the most exciting things about winning this award is that one of our charity partners will receive free TELUS services for a whole year. Thanks to our employees, BCAA has also been named an Aon Best Employer – Canada 2016, Gold Level. The national Aon Hewitt study recognizes organizations that create and maintain a highly engaged workforce, as measured by employees themselves in an extensive, independent survey. This is the second consecutive year and seventh time in 10 years that BCAA has made the list. BCAA's employees reported they were most satisfied with our corporate social responsibility activities, their co-workers, physical work environment and sense of accomplishment.
