As UV Insurance celebrates its 135th anniversary, this award reaffirms the strength and longevity of its mutualist model, founded on commitment, kindness, cooperation and excellence. “Since 1889, we’ve remained steadfast in our commitment to putting people at the heart of our decisions,” says Maryse Galarneau, Vice President of Human Resources. “This recognition shows that our corporate culture, centred on well-being, innovation and people, is more relevant than ever.”
At its Drummondville head office, UV Insurance provides a modern, thoughtfully designed work environment that supports both physical and mental well-being. Employees have access to a fully equipped gym, fitness classes, free healthy snacks, zen spaces, a library, and an annual allowance for sports and wellness activities. A variety of health-related workshops and conferences—organized by in-house committees—are offered throughout the year and are highly valued by employees, whether they work on-site or remotely. Staff members and their families also benefit from a comprehensive virtual healthcare program, which includes unlimited access to telehealth services and extended support from qualified mental health professionals.
