TORONTO, Sept. 12, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Points (TSX:PTS) (Nasdaq:PCOM), the global leader in powering loyalty commerce, announces it has
made its first appearance on the 2018 list of Canada’s Best Workplaces™ in Technology by Great Place to Work®. This follows Points’
recent recognitions as one of Canada’s 50 Top Workplaces for Women and a Top Small & Medium Employer in Canada.
Points received this honour after a thorough and independent analysis conducted by Great Place to Work®. The list of Best
Workplaces™ in Technology is based on direct feedback from employees of the hundreds of organizations that were surveyed by Great
Place to Work®. The data has a 90% confidence and a plus or minus 5% margin of error. Analysis of the data to compile this list
focused on the following considerations; organizations must be Great Place to Work Certified™ in the past year, have a minimum of
15 employees and work primarily in the Technology sector.
“We are delighted to have made the list of Best Workplaces™ in Technology this year, a list which honors organizations that
foster exceptional work environments and cultures,” said Rob MacLean, CEO at Points. “Since Points opened its doors over 17 years
ago, we have made it our mission to build a culture that attracts and retains great people to deliver great results for our
partners and shareholders. We look forward to continuing this mission, while championing workplaces across Canada that are
inclusive, diverse and collaborative.”
In addition to fostering a vibrant and people-centric workplace, Points offers competitive benefits like flexible work-hours,
maternity and parental support, fitness and commuter reimbursement programs and career development opportunities. Points encourages
strong relationships across departments through company-sponsored social events and lunches, and actively creates opportunities for
employees to ask questions, provide feedback and communicate across all levels of the company.
