Air Canada proudly announces its Gold Level certification in the Mental Health at Work category from Excellence Canada. This recognition not only underscores the airline’s commitment to creating a supportive environment for employees but also highlights its dedication to enhancing employee well-being through various initiatives and programs.

To promote mental health, the airline launched the Unlock the Best in You (UBY) program. This comprehensive initiative includes resources, training, and support systems. Recently, Air Canada introduced the Mental Health First Aid program, which enables over 900 team members to gain certifications. As a result, these trained employees now provide crucial support to colleagues facing challenges.

Moreover, Air Canada ensures that all employees and their families have access to unlimited, confidential counseling services and telemedicine. Consequently, this effort guarantees that healthcare support remains accessible. In addition, the airline implemented the Mental Health 360 workshop and the Mental Health Champions program, which enhance education and peer support across the workforce.

Furthermore, to strengthen mental health initiatives, the UBY team established resource centers in Montreal and Toronto. These centers offer employees a welcoming space to seek guidance on mental health services and wellness programs. Additionally, wellness centers in Montreal, Toronto, and Winnipeg provide staff with facilities to maintain their fitness routines.

Since 1984, Excellence Canada has celebrated outstanding organizational accomplishments through the Canada Awards for Excellence. This prestigious recognition requires organizations to demonstrate continuous improvement, stakeholder engagement, and the adoption of best practices. Ultimately, Air Canada’s Gold Level certification illustrates its dedication to fostering a mentally healthy workplace, positioning the airline as a leader in employee well-being.
