Law Society named one of BC’s Top Employers for fifth consecutive year

For the fifth consecutive year, the Law Society of BC is proud to be recognized as one of BC’s Top Employers. This accomplishment reinforces our commitment to an inclusive culture, employee development and upholding the organization’s mandate of regulating the legal profession in the public interest.

The Law Society prioritizes employee development and wellness, and is proud to offer comprehensive benefits and supports to our team members.

Highlights of working at the Law Society include:

• A hybrid work environment that offers most roles the flexibility of working from home and a vibrant office culture of collaboration and in-person connection. This includes a work-from-home subsidy for eligible roles.
• Four weeks of vacation at the start of employment (prorated to start date) and additional leaves for religious, spiritual or cultural purposes.
• A Retirement Savings Program that begins at the start of employment for permanent staff, with the Law Society contributing 7 per cent.
• A thoughtful approach to help employees manage unexpected challenges, including compassionate care leave top-ups for those called upon to care for a loved one (to 70 per cent of salary for up to 10 weeks).
• A maternity and parental leave top-up program that staff may participate in after one year of service.
• Mental health benefits, such as the Employee Assistance Program (EAP), the Telus Health CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, formerly AbilitiCBT) and significant paramedical coverage for the Mental Health service providers category.
