Canada’s Top Employers for Young People annual Mediacorp editorial competition has recognized Jazz Aviation as one of the country’s Top Employers for the tenth consecutive year.

The editorial competition, organized by Canada’s Top 100 Employers project, recognizes employers that offer the nation’s best workplaces, programs, and initiatives to attract and retain younger people entering the workforce.

Areas examined when evaluating each employer include mentorship, training and career management programs. For example, Jazz Aviation Pathways provides scholarships and direct employment opportunities to students enrolled in pilot and flight attendant programs at various post-secondary institutions.

Jazz was also recognized for offering scholarships to students enrolled in Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME) programs at local community colleges and for providing mentoring to apprentice AMEs.

The Canada’s Top Employers for Young People recognition came a few days after Jazz received a 2022 Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Award for being one of Canada’s top 10 best workplaces.
