Purolator Inc.
Purolator values the health and safety of our employees and the communities we serve.
With the global pandemic shifting to virtual learning environments, and the increasing demand
for transportation and courier services, Purolator needed to successfully onboard a largely
skilled-based staff — quickly, safely and effectively to keep the Canadian economy and supply
chain moving.
In one of the largest onboarding efforts in Purolator's history, the team virtually trained 3,845
new employees in a single year through 67,101 hours of virtual instructor-led content. Purolator
saw a reduction in injuries, achieving our lowest number of injury incidents in history. It's a
testament to the focus we place on our health and safety culture, and the impact of safety
training.
"Purolator is driven by people — we're committed to supporting our team by investing in
training and development programs as well as mental and physical wellness," says Ken
Johnston, Senior Vice President, People and Culture. "In the midst of a global pandemic, our
teams were able to quickly move from our traditional learning methods to effectively meet the
new needs of our employees, including thousands of new team members, to help ensure we
could successfully deliver for Canadians."
Purolator proudly accepted the award from HRD Canada, and we're committed to support
training programs, developing new staff and utilizing new technology to keep our workplace and
our people safe.
