Desmasdon’s Boat Works and Beacon Marine achieve Award status in Boating Industry

BICEOC 2022

Mar 7, 2022

CCEOC Inc., and Boating Industry Canada News Week Digest are pleased to announce that the team at Desmasdon’s Boat Works and Beacon Marine on Georgian Bay have achieved Award status for their 6th consecutive year.

Desmasdon’s Boat Works and Beacon Marine are Award winners in the ‘Dealers & Marinas’ category, of this year’s Boating Industry Canada Employer of Choice (BICEOC) Awards.

This is a national award program that recognizes and promotes the best employers in the Canadian recreational boating industry. More winners will be announced in the next week.

Companies that take part in the program must submit a Company Profile and complete the Employee Commitment survey. A combined score determines if an organization has achieved the award. There are two categories:

· Dealers & Marinas

· Marine Business: Manufacturers, Suppliers, Service Providers, Retailers and Distributors

Desmasdon’s Boat Works and Beacon Marine have achieved Award levels since first joining the program and we send our warmest congratulations to the whole team in Pointe au Baril, Ontario. General Manager Matt French accepted the award.

“I’m very excited for the companies that have achieved award levels in the Boating Industry Canada Employer of Choice program this year,” said Jeff Doran, president of CCEOC Inc. “With the added pressure of managing through the pandemic, these companies have continued to show resiliency and demonstrate how important their people are to the success of the business. They have worked hard to create world class cultures and preferred employer brands. This is the sixth year that Desmasdon’s Boat Works and Beacon Marine have won the award and we look forward to having their team participate again this year. ”

“We congratulate Desmasdon’s Boat Works and Beacon Marine on their success and their commitment to the Boating Industry Canada Employer of Choice program. Boating Industry Canada enthusiastically supports the Employer of Choice program as a means for employers to both attract and retain the quality of people our industry needs to meet and exceed our customer’s expectations,” stated Andy Adams, Managing Editor of Boating Industry Canada News Week Digest.

All participants in the Boating Industry Canada Employer of Choice program have the opportunity to develop continuous improvement plans through the purchase of their employee survey data. These reports provide targeted insights that help address key organizational challenges to improve employee engagement and build a better corporate culture.

The winners have shown high scores in the areas of leadership, engagement and personal enjoyment. They can now take advantage of unique branding opportunities to help attract and retain the best talent in the market. They can also use the assessment data to improve employee engagement and help make their companies even better places to work at, and do business with.
