Bennett Jones has been ranked a 2016 Platinum Level Best Employer in Canada, the highest level of recognition. This is the 14th consecutive year Bennett Jones has been selected as a Best Employer. Platinum Level organizations fully meet the requirements of the global Aon program and are eligible to be considered for regional and global Best Employer status.

"It's an honour to be a Best Employer for 14 years running, once again at the highest level," said Hugh MacKinnon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Bennett Jones. "The Platinum Award is a testament to the dedication of our lawyers and staff to the firm and our clients. We're very proud of our people."

Aon Best Employers in Canada is the country's most comprehensive study of employee engagement and the work environment. It provides an in-depth view into employee and leader opinion—and it is employees who determine the best places to work. Best Employers are selected based on the results of a comprehensive employee survey from companies across Canada with the highest levels of employee engagement and workplace satisfaction.

The annual list of Aon Best Employers is published in Canadian Business magazine. The list is also available on Aon's website at http://www.aon.com/canada/products-services/human-capital-consulting/consulting/best_employers/ and at http://www.canadianbusiness.com/lists-and-rankings/best-jobs/best-employers-ranking-2016/.
