Spiritwood store wins SK Inclusive Employer of 2022

Aug 3, 2022 | 3:00 PM

A business in Spiritwood was recently honoured with the Saskatchewan Inclusive Employer Award.

The team at Lake Country Co-op, led by Michael Sarrazin and Karon Abdai, were recognized for their commitment to inclusive employment through the support of their team member, Megan Allard.

Allard has been with Lake Country Co-op since the opening of the new C-store in December 2021.

“Since that time, Michael, Karon and the team have gone above and beyond to ensure that Megan’s role is not only meaningful to Megan but also to her co-workers,” the company said in a release. “They have supported her through an inclusive training process and provided a space for her to grow within her role and as an individual.”

The release goes on to say that diversity and inclusion are a priority for Lake Country Co-op and they believe providing an exceptional experience to their team members positively impacts each customer experience and in turn, the community it serves.
