ACE presents award to Simon Fraser University
One of Canada’s Best Workplaces for Employees Living with Arthritis
Hello ACE members, subscribers and followers,
As a person with arthritis I know all too well how difficult in can be to deal with the daily realities of living with the disease and try to do a great job at work, even on days or times when I’m not feeling that well. Because what we do for work is a large part of our lives and we derive not only an income but a sense of personal satisfaction from our jobs, ACE wants to recognize employers in Canada who are dedicated to helping employees with arthritis remain gainfully employed.
It was with great pleasure that on January 28, 2016, ACE presented Simon Fraser University with it’s Best Workplace for Employees Living with Arthritis award. One of Simon Fraser University's (SFU) important goals is to maintain a healthy workplace for all employees, including those living with chronic diseases like arthritis. I am so encouraged by SFU’s approach to employee well-being and, in particular, the understanding, empathy and services they provide their employees living with arthritis. ACE is thrilled to be a resource to SFU and other employers in Canada to elevate disease awareness and education and explore ways to collaborate to help employees with arthritis live better lives at work.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Koehn
