By Richard Yerema and Kristina Leung, Mediacorp Canada Inc. staff editors (Jan 27, 2025)
Here are some of the reasons why Pembina Pipeline Corporation was selected as one of Alberta's Top Employers (2025):
- Pembina celebrates exceptional performance through the Rise Awards program, enabling employees to nominate peers for award categories such as customer service, teamwork, and environmental stewardship -- finalists are selected by an evaluation committee and award winners receive a long-term incentive program payment of $15,000 (vesting over three years) as well as $5,000 to donate to the charity of their choice
- Pembina supports a number of charitable initiatives each year and encourages employee involvement with flexible paid time off to volunteer (no set limit) -- additionally, the company generously matches employee donations to a maximum of $10,000 per employee per year, as well as providing matching payments for volunteer hours ($15 for each volunteer hour, up to $750 per year)
- Pembina takes a thoughtful approach when employees are called upon to care for loved ones, offering compassionate leave top-up to 100 per cent of salary for up to six weeks
