True North Solutions is proud to announce that their organization has been named one of the 2022 Best Workplaces for Mental Wellness.

The Best Workplaces for Mental Wellness list is based on direct feedback from employees, who are surveyed by Great Place to Work. To be eligible for this list, organizations must be Great Place to Work – Certified in the past year and at least 75% of employees must agree their workplace is psychologically and emotionally healthy. True North received this honour based on a strong overall Mental Wellness Index Index score from their employees as well as the range and quality of programs they offer encouraging mental wellness.

“True North Solutions has worked hard to build a culture and team that has no equal. These efforts have been recognized multiple times through Best Workplaces in Canada (Great Place to Work awards); this year, we were honoured to see this extended to the Best Workplaces award for Mental Wellness,” said Darren Sharpe, Chief Operating Officer. “At True North, we know that self-care — taking the time to preserve one’s overall wellbeing — is critical. We recognize that anxiety, stress, depression, and other mental wellness-related issues can have extraordinary impacts to a person’s family relationships, their physical health, their ability to interact with friends and colleagues, and so forth. This award is humbling, as it recognizes the emphasis True North places on the overall wellness of our staff, and it validates that we still have a lot of work to do to ensure the ongoing supports are in place for all our team members. As we accept this award, it comes with the understanding that this is a mere step in a lifelong journey to ensuring our team members have the support they need and deserve.”

CorPower masters this difficulty with devices that are naturally transparent and protected in storms, and which produce about five times more energy per tonne of device than state-of-the-art solutions in the ocean.
