For the 15th consecutive year, Bennett Jones has been named one of Alberta's Top Employers. This recognition highlights employers who lead their industries in providing exceptional workplaces and benefits for their employees.
Here are some reasons Bennett Jones continues to be recognized as one of Alberta's Top Employers:
- Family Support: The firm supports employees looking to start a family with a fertility support benefit of up to $20,000 and maternity and parental leave top-ups for up to 26 weeks, varying by employee group.
- Flexible Working: Bennett Jones supports flexibility through a hybrid work program, allowing employees to work remotely one or two days a week, depending on office location.

- Continuous Learning: Bennett Jones fosters a culture of continuous growth through programs such as the Elevate Legal Assistant Learning Academy, providing legal assistants with the skills, knowledge and expertise to excel.
Alberta’s Top Employers are selected based on the same criteria as Canada’s Top 100 Employers national competition, which evaluates organizations in categories such as the physical workplace, work atmosphere and social environment, health, financial and family benefits, vacation and time off, employee communications, performance management, training and skills development, and community involvement. Employers are compared to others in their field to determine which offer the most progressive and forward-thinking programs.
