What is your recruiting philosophy?
TPH prides itself on having a diverse and inclusive workforce. Many of its candidates are selected through partnerships with professional organizations, universities, and community groups. Structured interviews and diverse hiring panels are in place to minimize bias.
“We offer mentorship programs and professional development opportunities, to support individuals. This holistic approach ensures we not only attract but also retain a diverse and talented workforce, fostering innovation and growth,” says Taillefer.
On the first day of work, employees are told to come in at 10 a.m. to help ease any stress and anxiety. They will meet with human resources for the first half of the day in order to reinforce that they will be supported in the workplace, as well as to go over rules and procedures.
“I was not as nervous as a result the night before. You don’t have to worry about getting a good night’s sleep or getting up on time. You can slow down, have a shower, eat breakfast, and take your dog for a walk. Morning traffic is usually gone by then,” said Alana Parr, an executive assistant at TPH Plumbing & Heating for the last six months.
