A new list of the best employers in Canada for 2025 has revealed some of the top places to work across the country.
That includes universities, telecom companies, government agencies, and more.
Recently, Canada's Top 100 Employers released a list highlighting companies that are leaders in "supporting employees as they balance work and family commitments."
These top employers in Canada are evaluated based on programs and incentives for families.
The family benefits include maternity and parental leave, daycare assistance, paid personal days, flexible work arrangements, compassionate leave, elder care assistance, adoption support, and reproductive assistance (like fertility drugs and IVF).
Companies are also assessed on any other programs that address the work-life balance challenges unique to their own industry.
These are Canada's Top Family-Friendly Employers for 2025:
- Bank of Canada
- Bell Canada
- Boston Consulting Group Canada
- British Columbia Investment Management Corporation
- Canada Energy Regulator
- Carleton University
- Danone Canada
- Dentons Canada
- Employment and Social Development Canada
- Export Development Canada
- Fidelity Canada
- HarperCollins Canada and Harlequin Enterprises
- Hospital for Sick Children
- Nasdaq Verafin
- Novo Nordisk Canada
- SAP Canada
- Simon Fraser University
- Stryker Canada
- Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada
- Vancouver City Savings Credit Union
Canada's Top 100 also recently ranked the best employers for young workers and the top employers for diversity and inclusiveness in 2025.
Bell Canada, Boston Consulting Group Canada, Dentons Canada, and SAP Canada are on both lists of top employers!
Quite a few more companies that were named the top family-friendly employers in 2025 also made one of those other rankings this year.
