Life at the Caisse

A Career Focused on Finance

Located in the heart of Montréal’s International District close to downtown, the Caisse’s main business office, draws attention because of its futuristic look combining transparency, functionality and comfort. For more information, visit the International District's Web site.

The building offers bright offices and a functional layout that promote dialogue and team spirit. It is easy to get to using public transportation since it is linked to Montréal’s underground network, which allows for quick access to the city’s main stores and business centres.

With the wide array of employment opportunities available, compensation is not the only criteria for choosing the Caisse. This is why it offers its employees services that contribute to the quality of their life at work, most notably:

Montréal Herald Health Centre
Accessible from inside the main business office, its services range from access to locker rooms and showers to a personalized fitness program, as well as morning, noon and evening group classes and access to a fully-equipped exercise room.

Centre des petits Daycare 
Located in the Meco building, which is part of the main business office, it takes care of teaching pre-school age children and sees to their personal development. It serves varied meals approved by nutrition experts.

The Parquet
This large area represents a gathering place for employees. Exhibitions, conferences and concerts are held there. Located close to Victoria Square and place Jean-Paul-Riopelle, it opens onto a lively, animated neighbourhood.

COMMUNICATION IS A PRIORITY
At the Caisse, employees have quick, ongoing access to information thanks to various internal and external communication tools:

Intranet Portal
Unique provider of information and working tools, including daily news.

Webcasts

Wellness Activities
The Caisse and its subsidiaries organize various events for the benefit of employees, ranging from information stands on nutrition and physical exercise, campaigns focusing on health, such as the flu vaccination campaign held each autumn, conferences given by experts on physical health, teamwork, or etiquette in business relations, and programs to get back into shape and stop smoking.

A confidential external professional consultation service is also offered to employees in cases of marital or family difficulties, loss of a loved one or illness, anxiety, depression, exhaustion, harassment, violence or addiction, and legal or financial difficulties.

A QUESTION OF ETHICS
As a responsible employer, the Caisse takes into account today’s priority issues: equal employment opportunity, professional development, reconciling work and family. Ethics also play a critical role in fund and investment management, particularly with regard to:

• Different forms of harassment in the workplace;
• Equal employment opportunity
• Use of French as the language at work;
• Accessibility of our offices for people with reduced mobility;
• Fund management and the use of information for personal purposes.
