Workplace:

Our head office being located in Boucherville, on the South Shore of Montreal, we know that some of our employees are concerned by the roadwork being carried out in the Louis-Hippolyte-La Fontaine tunnel.

That's why we stood up an in-house advisory committee and implemented new work policies that provide our teams with even more flexibility, no matter where they live.
