We are proud to announce that Terracon has been selected as one of Alberta’s Top Employers for 2026, recognizing our steadfast commitment to our people and a workplace culture rooted in our core SITE Values (Safety, Integrity, Teamwork, and Entrepreneurship).
Just a few of the things that make us a Top Employer:
Culture of Growth and Engagement:
- Continuous learning opportunities including paid new-to-industry training, co‑op placements, formal mentoring, leadership development, paid in‑field and online technical and safety training, and tuition subsidies. Employees also receive bonuses of up to $1,000 for completing key professional accreditations.
- An employee‑referral program offering up to $1,000 per successful hire, along with numerous team‑building and social initiatives.
- Our annual Lee Nichols Award honours employees who exemplify our SITE values and set the standard for leadership across the organization.
Commitment to Well‑Being and Financial Security:
- We realize people have differing financial objectives and we look to support them through flexible work arrangements; matching RSP / TFSA / Student Loan Repayment / Mortgage Repayment Program program; employer‑paid health premiums up to 50%; 5 Wellness Days per year; up to $2,000 annually for mental wellness supports; an EFAP program; maternity top‑ups; and generous vacation entitlements.
Strong HSE Culture and Training:
- Safety is our foundation. We prioritize robust HSE programs, ongoing training, and continuous improvement processes to ensure each member of our team goes home safely every day.
Employee Owned:
- Terracon is proudly employee-owned and currently in its third generation of employee ownership.
With offices in Calgary, Fort McMurray, Leduc and Prince George and operating across major projects sites throughout Western Canada and the North, Terracon continues to grow sustainably while maintaining a close‑knit culture where people can truly build meaningful, long-term career-life partnerships.
“Being named one of Alberta’s Top Employers for 2026 is a testament to our people,” said Terracon's President, Jake Rubenstein. “Our employees are the heart of our company, and this recognition reflects their dedication to excellence, safety, and supporting one another. We are incredibly proud of all they do. We congratulate all the winners this year who share our vision of creating amazing workplaces."
