Rescan is pleased to announce our requalification for the third straight year as one of Canada’s 50 Best Managed Companies—putting us in the Gold Standard category. Established in 1993, Canada's 50 Best Managed Companies is the country’s leading business awards program, recognizing excellence in Canadian-owned and -managed companies with revenues over $10 million. Every year, hundreds of entrepreneurial companies compete for this designation in a rigorous and independent process that evaluates the calibre of their management abilities and practices.

The Gold Standard category, introduced this year, is awarded to a company after three consecutive years of maintaining their Best Managed status, these winners have demonstrated their commitment to the program and successfully reapplied for the designation.

We are honoured to be recognized as one of the 50 Best Managed Companies in Canada. This award has given Rescan tremendous pride; and at the same time, we are cognizant that we must live up to its standards.

Rescan has been selected as one of Canada's Top Employers for Young People. Now in its 10^th year, the Canada's Top Employers for Young People competition is an editorial project organized by the Canada's Top 100 Employers project in partnership with KPMG LLP. This special designation recognizes employers that have exemplary programs to attract and retain younger workers. The editors review hundreds of leading employers across Canada to identify initiatives such as: co-op or work-study programs; tuition assistance to help students develop their skills; mentoring programs to help them adjust successfully to working life; career planning to help them move up in the organization; and other unique initiatives that help them develop rewarding and stimulating careers at each employer.

Rescan is excited to announce that we have been selected as one of Canada's Greenest Employers for 2011.  Launched in 2007, the Canada's Greenest Employers competition is organized by the editors of the Canada's Top 100 Employers project. This special designation recognizes the employers that lead the nation in creating a culture of environmental awareness in their organizations. These employers have developed exceptional earth-friendly initiatives -- and are attracting people to their organizations because of their environmental leadership.

This is the third straight year that Rescan has been honoured with this award. The Best Employers for New Canadians award is a special designation that recognizes the nation's best employers for recent immigrants. These employers offer interesting programs to assist new Canadians in making the transition to a new workplace -- and a new life in Canada. This year's winners were announced in a special editorial feature published on March 28th in The Globe and Mail newspaper.

Rescan is honoured to be selected as the winner of the 2010 Achievement in Business Excellence (ABEX) Award in the category of Environment.

Rescan has been named one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers, an annual competition sponsored by Mediacorp Canada Inc. to recognize Canada's best places to work.
