Here are some of the reasons why Royal Ottawa Health Care Group was selected as one of National Capital Region's Top Employers (2025):

  • The Royal cultivates a culture of recognition through a number of internal awards including long service awards, dedicated awards for quality, innovation and education, and the Good Catch Award to recognize employees who identify care issues and make changes in a timely manner
  • The Royal supports its new moms, dads and adoptive parents with maternity and parental leave top-up payments and offers the option to phase-in their return to work, gradually increasing their work hours
  • The Royal starts new employees with four weeks of paid vacation and enables longer serving employees to arrange for more time off through unpaid or self-funded paid leaves of absence -- employees also have access to paid personal days to help balance work and personal commitments
