When you make the decision to join IAP, you not only choose a position and an employer, you also join a team and select a work environment. You become a member of a family that’s been in business for more than 100 years and employs over 3300 employees across Canada. IAP’s Head Office in Vancouver has more than 300 employees, yet we manage to create a family-like atmosphere where teamwork and respect for individuals come first. In our service-oriented and high-performance environment, employees are asked to take initiative and to contribute as much as they can to the Company’s success.
We believe in open and frank communication with our employees. This is why we do our best to keep everyone informed about our action plans, results, activities, changes, benefits and working conditions. We do this through a variety of communication channels, such as monthly newsletters, regular management meetings and staff meetings with the President, department meetings and orientation sessions for new employees.
Our Vancouver Head Office is located in trendy Kitsilano, just a few blocks from the beach, and is easily accessible by car, bus or bike. There are numerous places to shop and eat within a short walking distance. We have an employee lunchroom as well as an exercise room and a racquetball court, change and shower rooms, bicycle racks, underground parking and an Internet library.
Workstations have been designed to accommodate individual work as well as teamwork while giving as much access as possible to windows so that everybody can enjoy the sun and mountains.
We also hold events such as a Festive Season lunch, an annual summer event, a golf tournament, fundraising activities, Casual Wear Friday, and a Christmas party for the children of our employees. |
