Interior Health (IH) has been named one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers for 2025. This special designation recognizes employers across the country who provide exceptional workplaces.

“Our people are the heart of Interior Health and, undoubtedly, the reason why it is such a great place to work. This accolade reflects the hard work, passion, and dedication that each staff member brings to their role and workplace every day,” said IH president & CEO Susan Brown. “We strive to provide the safest environments, education, and resources for our staff to support diversity and inclusion, and cultural safety and humility initiatives across Interior Health.”

The Canada’s Top 100 Employers awards is an annual competition that considers a wealth of criteria, such as: diversity and inclusion; benefits; physical workplace; student/new graduate opportunities and training; recruitment and retention; employment standards; community involvement; and more. The top employer award shows IH scores high in all aspects. 

“This is a beautiful region with something to offer everyone, whether you are seeking a rural lifestyle or a more urban environment. We provide fantastic benefits and a wide range of opportunities. But the people and the teams that make up Interior Health are truly what makes this such an exceptional workplace,” said Taryn McGregor, IH corporate director, compensation & recruitment. “The degree of dedication, passion and commitment they have for the patients and clients we serve – as well as the way they support each other – is something everyone at IH should be proud of.”
