| EDMONTON, Alberta – The PCL family of companies is pleased to announce that we have been recognized as one of the 50 Best Employers in Canada for 2006. We are ranked eighth, up two spots from last year. It is the seventh year in a row, since the inaugural year of 2000, that we’ve made the list. More than 300 companies started the process with Hewitt Associates with 137 of these companies and more than 100,000 employees participating in the final Best Employers in Canada study. Fifty Canadian organizations clearly demonstrated that they understand how to attract and retain the employees they need to meet their business objectives. Employees determined which employers made the list based on their responses to a confidential opinion survey. “It is gratifying to know that in some way, everyone in the PCL family – from Mr. Poole 100 years ago to all of our employees today - have helped build a workplace that is ranked as one of Canada’s best,” says Paul Douglas, President and COO of Canadian Buildings. The Best Employers in Canada list is published today in the Globe and Mail’s Report on Business magazine and in La Presse.
