A big part of the Armour Insurance culture is our commitment to employee health. We believe that the health and well-being of our team members is crucial to our success. That's why we're committed to promoting a healthy lifestyle, both physically and mentally. We're proud to offer a range of programs and initiatives to support our staff in achieving their health and wellness goals.

This morning in Leduc County, where I am currently living, it was -43˚C when accounting for the wind chill. Given that it is December 20^th in central Alberta, this kind of weather isn't really out of the ordinary. Living on an acreage, we park our vehicles outside on the driveway overnight. With multiple people living in the house, we have 4 vehicles on the property.

I know it almost goes without saying that everyone hates waiting on hold. The dreaded ding ding dong of the scratchy hold music makes most people incredibly annoyed. I'm sure we've all been there, waiting on hold with a shipping company, airline, passport office, or somewhere else with terribly long hold times.

The core values of an organization are meant to be the foundation for all decisions made by that business. They are the lens that we use to define culture, influence our behaviour, and how plan to achieve our goals. Many companies have a vague or arbitrary set of core values that the folks at corporate came up. Most of the operations people don’t have the faintest idea of what core values of their company are.

We're very excited to announce that Armour Insurance has been featured as one of the Insurance Business Canada's Top Insurance Employers this year with an overall average score of 4.58/5! Armour has been celebrated in December's edition of Insurance Business Canada, and announced on their website.

At Armour Insurance, our culture is something we take pride in. Our Core Values are embodied by each member of the Armour Team, and we look for these values in each person that we hire:

At Armour Insurance, we strive to make the workplace a great setting for our team members to thrive, and enjoy ourselves! We asked some of our team members what their very favourite thing is about working at Armour. Here's what they had to say:

At Armour Insurance, our culture is crucial to our success. Culture happens whether we plan it or not, so why not create a culture we love? Our goal is to make a company that everyone is proud to be a part of. To do so, we've implemented an Armour Culture Code and Core Values to help ensure our team is motivated, on track, and easily able to note their progress.

At Armour Insurance, we believe that culture is important. It is also inevitable. Culture will grow in your organization whether you actively build it or not, so why not build a culture you love. In 2013 we set out to do just that, and it all started with our core values.
