翰威特咨询公司(Hewitt Associates)近日公布2008年加拿大前50强雇主。不同于其它类似调查报告，翰威特“2008年加拿大前50强雇主”调查的领导者克劳福德(Neil Crawford)表示，许多报告都把重点放在雇主的业务和策略上，如你有桌上足球设施吗，一年几次野餐等等。他的调查则主要是“以人为本”，“我们想要知道的是员工对工作场所的看法”。

　　翰威特调查的主要评价标准就是员工敬业度(employee engagement)水平，即员工对所在团体从情感到才智上的贡献程度。所以翰威特的50强名单的特点就是员工敬业度的名单。

　　在就业市场繁荣，可能吸引员工寻找报酬更高的工作的情况下，50强公司的平均员工敬业度在77％，与上一年相比没有变化。我们可以做一下对比，本次参与调查的公司的平均员工敬业度为58％，而全加拿大的平均员工敬业度为50％。
