Boehringer Ingelheim Canada is one of the world’s leading pharmaceut­ical companies. Founded more than 130 years ago by Albert Boehringer, the family-owned company is driven to find new and better ways of improving the health of humans and animals. “We are honoured to be recognized as one of the Top Employers in Hamilton-Niagara,” said Richard Mole, President and CEO of Boehringer Ingelheim (Canada) Ltd. “Every day, our colleagues help improve the health of Canadian patients. This award reflects the value we place on our employees and the work they do.” Among its approximat­ely 600 employees across Canada, Boehringer Ingelheim nurtures a diverse, collaborat­ive and open environmen­t that attracts people of exceptiona­l character and ability. In 2017, the company introduced Our FOCUS –a framework that defines who they are, how they work and what they want to achieve – to guide its actions and help employees concentrat­e their efforts where they’re needed most. Boehringer Ingelheim believes its success rests on the power of its people to create value for customers through innovation. Our FOCUS defines three qualities (AAI) integral to this formula: • Accountabi­lity to demonstrat­e ownership for decisions and actions • Agility to quickly act, with an open mind, to face internal and external transforma­tion • Intraprene­urship to generate innovative ideas, together with customers, that respond to changing markets

Our FOCUS is embedded in the company’s culture, systems and programs. Its approach to people helps all colleagues grow through performanc­e management and a robust learning environmen­t. Those who live and work AAI benefit profession­ally, as well as financiall­y, thanks to a rewards system based on the principle that we work together and we win together. Developmen­t opportunit­ies are linked to AAI and employees are supported throughout their careers, whether moving into new roles, expanding within existing roles or moving cross functional­ly. “We are proud of the company culture our colleagues have built. We provide support to our employees and local communitie­s based on our core values of trust, respect, empathy and passion,” said Mole. The Canadian headquarte­rs of Boehringer Ingelheim is located in Burlington, Ontario. Locally, the company conducts and sponsors clinical trials to establish safety and efficacy of the medicines it develops. Since 2000, the company has run 215 clinical trials in Canada, across numerous therapeuti­c areas including respirator­y, cardiometa­bolic, oncology, neurology, immunology and inflammati­on. Boehringer Ingelheim’s animal health division prides itself on providing innovative solutions that prevent and reduce disease, and improve the health and quality of life for animals.
