In the 24 years I’ve been with Waste Control I’ve always felt well taken care of. This is a big part of the reason I’ve stayed at WCS all these years, and the people I work with aren’t too shabby either.
I feel happy to work with WCS for many years. Reliable income and nice people to work with. Team lunches are good to show employees appreciation for the hard work.
In the years so far at WCS I’ve felt supported in my professional growth and passion for sustainability, and have seen folks valued for their individual strengths and skills. I’ve observed that new ideas are valued and welcomed, and have seen the team here shape a culture that is big on follow through and action. Not easy to do, and all the more commendable!
I’m proud to work for a company who always takes care of its people and values work-life balance. That’s why you’ll see lots of employees who have chosen to stick around for many years. It’s pretty special.
To ensure happy, healthy and motivated employees, we are proud to offer a competitive benefit package here at WCS. Our employees’ premiums for Health and Dental coverage are paid for by the company. The company also contributes to a Deferred Profit-Sharing Plan for our employees’ eventual retirement and offer the ability to participate in our Group RRSP so you can rest assured your future is taken care of.
Waste Control Services’ commitment to our team members goes well beyond compensation and benefits. Recent employee engagement surveys showed employees enjoy coming to work and most all would recommend WCS as a place to work. Peer-to-peer recognition, employee of the month, team socials and safe driver bonus programs are just some of the incentives that engage our team to keep striving to be better.
We believe in supporting our employees in their career choices and we do this by offering tuition reimbursement for costs associated with upgrading skills. Many drivers for example who join Waste Control Services come onto the team as entry level Class 5 Drivers. We have reimbursed for employees seeking to acquire their commercial licenses.
Other training associated with Health & Safety, Computers or specialized skill training are managed on an ad hoc basis – in support of our employees continued learning.
We are always seeking skilled individuals who share our team values. We offer an inclusive environment to all backgrounds of life experience and value creating and maintaining a work environment of professionalism, dignity and respect, where people can contribute and excel in what they do.
Our commitment to our employees is paralleled by our commitment to the community around us.
