Rewards and recognition
Dofasco, a leading steel producer with over 5,500 employees, has always believed that people are its greatest strength. But after major business shifts, employee feedback showed a clear gap—people didn’t feel recognized. To rebuild connection and boost morale, Dofasco set out to create a recognition program that reached every employee, from offices to the production floor.
Saying ‘thanks’ with recognition
Dofasco knew that recognition needed to be simple, visible, and meaningful for every employee — no matter their role or location. Partnering with Achievers, they launched their platform, Thanks a Ton, which quickly became a favorite across the company. What followed was a major shift in engagement, connection, and pride — all fueled by the power of recognition.
Read the Dofasco customer story to learn how investing in recognition impacted not only employees but also played a role in their own recognition as a Top 100 Employer in Canada.
