\u201cThese recognitions reinforce the work we\u2019ve done to create an inclusive, innovative and values-driven environment,\u201d said Dwivedi, who joined Interac in September<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s a true testament to how we foster a workplace where everyone can be their best, most authentic selves.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n It\u2019s a culture that enables Interac employees to serve as engaged citizens, too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Making Interac a sought-after workplace includes a commitment to offering comprehensive benefits<\/a>, like health and wellness benefits and RRSP contributions that are 100 per cent company-paid (as in, employees don\u2019t have to share in the cost). <\/p>\n\n\n\n For many employees, the company\u2019s supportive work environment is another highlight of a career at Interac. This means extra-long wellness weekends, shortened summer hours and personal days that give employees a chance to rest and recharge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI love, love, love Summer Fridays,\u201d said Arushi Babhuta, a Product Management Specialist, who appreciates getting an early 3 p.m. start on the weekend. \u201cWhen my parents visited from India, helping them explore Ontario was very dependent on my Summer Fridays.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Interac workplace culture isn\u2019t just about healthy, fulfilled, and productive employees. It\u2019s also about building a stronger Canada. Community engagement is a key part of the experience of working at Interac \u2014 which means opportunities to take a break from one\u2019s desk to go support those in need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Interac employees are especially engaged in impact-oriented programming that helps Canadians \u2014 notably equity-deserving groups \u2014 build their financial and digital confidence. For example, Interac worked with community partners to launch Mindfulness and Money<\/a>, a program that supports diverse entrepreneurs and other Canadians as they build financial confidence and digital literacy skills. To date, more than 380,000 Canadians have benefited from financial literacy programs that Interac supports. <\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Creating a positive work culture also means offering robust employee development opportunities, hand-in-hand with a dedication to advancing diversity and inclusion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2024, Interac launched their Count Me In campaign<\/a>, a data-centric initiative that helps them understand potential gaps in internal growth and development and the talent acquisition by demographic.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n Through a collaboration with ACCES Employment<\/a>, women at Interac can connect with and mentor women<\/a> who are newcomers with tech skills, with the aim of nurturing their careers in a new country. Interac also partners with community organizations like Conscious Economics<\/a> and other corporations to work toward addressing gender-based pay inequity. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe\u2019ve been recognized for our data-driven approach to diversity, equity and inclusion, which is at the heart of how we continue to shape a culture where everyone\u2019s voice is valued and heard, and employees can bring their true selves to work\u201d Dwivedi said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Sudha noted that working at Interac comes with the satisfaction of knowing that what we do here matters. The more productive we are, the more we\u2019re contributing to a new era of digital prosperity for all Canadians. When our employees are energized by the healthy corporate culture here at Interac, they\u2019re better able to help other Canadians get more out of life \u2014 \u201cultimately, that\u2019s our mission,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOur positive, inclusive, engaged work culture not only supports local communities, but it also enables employees to perform their best in their work. And that work is all about empowering Canadians to participate in the digital economy and a digital world. We\u2019re a team that works tirelessly to make life easier for all Canadians.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n Learn more about the benefits and work culture that make Interac an employer of choice.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nWorking at Interac <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
