August 2022 – Classic Fire + Life Safety is pleased to announce the onboarding of 120 new team members since January 2022.  The company attributes its successful growth to strong values, culture, training, and commitment to career development.

 In April, the company announced it was ahead of its summer growth targets – at the time announcing the hiring of over 60 persons. Classic FLS remains pleased with the pace of recruitment.

 “The strength and vitality of Canada’s fire and life safety industry continues, and it’s clear that interest in the field is growing in tandem,” says Melissa Diaz, Vice President, Human Resources at Classic Fire + Life Safety. “We expected to fill positions but doing so at this pace is a surprise - creating opportunities and being able to onboard highly skilled, passionate team members is what sets us apart.”

 The company's recruitment campaign began early 2022. With a strong commitment to building highly skilled, dedicated teams, the campaign has seen growth in several areas of the business, successfully onboarding fire alarm technicians, sprinkler fitters, customer care representatives, sales staff, and other office staff in various departments.  Positions were filled across the company’s offices in Ajax, Burlington, Cambridge, London, Ottawa, Toronto and Windsor, Ontario, and Winnipeg, Manitoba.

 Classic Fire + Life Safety expects its growth to continue, looking to fill over 50 positions by the end of the year. Today the company currently has 23 open positions. Diaz believes employment opportunities will increase and attract many skilled applicants.

 “I have little doubt that we will increase our employment opportunities and I equally believe that we will fill these positions with talented, motivated and engaged team members,” says Diaz. “It's rewarding to be part of this growth.”

 In addition to competitive salaries and rates, Classic Fire + Life Safety offers numerous benefits including extended health and dental care, RRSP matching, insurance discounted rates, assistance programs, paid time off and innovative opportunities for career growth and development.
