DLA Piper Canada recognized as a Top Employer for Young People‎

DLA Piper (Canada) LLP is thrilled to be recognized as a national leader for its dedication to young employees by Canada’s Top Employers for Young People (2024).

The designation recognizes employers that offer the nation's best workplaces and programs for young people as they enter the work force as young professionals. The organizations recognized in the 2024 edition were applauded for attracting and retaining younger employees to their organizations.

The 2024 selection criteria included: programs and initiatives offered to attract and retain young professionals such as benefits, mentorships and training programs; career management; initiatives that help younger workers advance faster; and co-op experience that benefits local communities.

DLA Piper Canada’s 2024 recognition was attributed to a variety of initiatives including: investment into the development of students through seminars designed to assist in the transition from study of law to the practice of law, secondment opportunities, and mentorship programs for young lawyers covering topics such as how to navigate the firm, building a practice, maintaining work-life balance, and any other topics of interest to the junior associates.

“It is an honour to be recognized once again as a Top Canadian Employer for Young People,” said Robert Seidel, K.C., Canada Managing Partner. “We are proud of the contributions our young people make to the Firm and recognize the importance of supporting them as they navigate their way through the beginning of their professional careers”.
