Markham, ON -- (SBWIRE) -- 03/24/2015 -- nvision solutions, a full-service digital marketing agency in Markham, Ontario, is pleased to announce that company President, George Arabian, is the 2014 recipient of the Business Employer of Excellence Award.

Given to a business that exemplifies a dedication to the personal and professional growth of its employees, the award is presented annually by the Markham Board of Trade.

"Employee retention is one of the most important things in our industry. It's already very saturated with people claiming to have the right skills, but that's not necessarily true," says Arabian. "Once we find a well-rounded person we want to make sure they stay with us. And this award recognizes our efforts to do that."

Among the employee initiatives that caught the attention of the awards committee is a nvision program called "creative money". Every employee receives an annual budget that they can use towards creative activities, which can be anything from concerts to art supplies.

For nvision, the benefits of being a good employer aren't just about retaining talent, it's been good for business too. In fact, the company is launching its own new website design that features a page focusing on each staff member, including background information.

"I want businesses looking for our services to see nvision as having the best employees within our industry," says Arabian. "When they see our team is talented and happy they want to work with us and it does help us attract clients."

The nvision way of creating the best work environment extends beyond its leadership. Arabian cites an example of a company-paid visit to a conference in Miami. One employee originally wasn't supposed to attend but deserved to go. His team was willing stay at a less expensive hotel and take a different flight so the budget could accommodate the extra person.

The company is looking to continue its success in keeping employees happy with the launch of its new health and wellness program later this year. The new program uses a points and rewards system to encourage the team to adopt healthy habits.
