Employees Focus on a Healthy Lifestyle

Bantrel is renowned for leading the EPC industry and setting benchmarks for safety and quality. Bantrel has been the recipient of a number of industry awards over the years.

In this day and age of increased workloads and limited resources in an extremely busy industry it is equally important to focus on the health and family/work life balance of employees.

Fifteen million Canadians spend one half of their waking hours at work, according to the Business Case for Active Living at Work, Health Canada. This indicates that health is not just an issue for the home. Physical activity, healthy eating, living smoke-free, participating in sports and getting enough sleep are all part of a healthy lifestyle.

Bantrel is taking a strategic leadership approach to creating a healthy, high performing organization with a company-wide health and wellness initiative - The Wellness Challenge.

The Wellness Challenge is a friendly competition started to encourage Bantrel employees to increase their daily activity levels, leading to improved health and wellness in the workplace and perhaps a change in lifestyle for years to come. Each month we have an activity planned to encourage participation in this initiative. In May over 500 employees across all three locations took part in a lunch hour walkathon.
