Toronto, ON – Crawford Technologies today announced it will be offering employees full pay for doing one full day of volunteer work annually at a charity of their choice. This is one of many initiatives CrawfordTech has implemented as the company strives to become one of the best employers in North America.

"This is a win-win situation for Crawford Technologies because volunteering strengthens morale, builds on skills and contributes to professional development," said Ernie Crawford, President of Crawford Technologies. "We look forward to supporting our employees with their individual efforts to make this world a better place."

Under the program, CrawfordTech employees can select a charity (accredited and registered in their country of residence) that is meaningful to them and spend one day volunteering for that organization with full pay.

Other positive initiatives CrawfordTech has implemented for employees include:

• An extremely generous annual profit-sharing program that encompasses all employees in all sectors
• A wellness program that covers the cost of a monthly fitness membership of the employee's choice
• A charity-matching program where CrawfordTech matches employees' personal donations to accredited charities during the holiday season 

"This is a wonderful new benefit for our employees and their communities," said Carol Steinbock, Vice President of Human Resources for Crawford Technologies. “Volunteer work is often the glue that holds communities together and through this new initiative, Crawford Technologies is exercising stewardship and paying it forward.”
