This summer, Science North was recognized as our 2026 Commuter Champion. Today, we’re taking a closer look at some of the actions that helped them earn the award.

1. Science North has enhanced its Bike Barn, giving employees who choose to cycle to work a secure and convenient place to store their bikes.

2. The organization offers free Level 2 EV charging for employees, helping make lower-carbon transportation more accessible.

3. Through Smart Commute activities, coffee breaks and employee surveys, Science North creates opportunities for staff to learn about sustainable transportation and share their experiences and ideas.

Sustainable commuting doesn’t have to look the same at every workplace. What matters is finding ways to make lower-carbon transportation options easier, safer and more accessible for employees

Cet été, Science Nord a été désigné « Champion des déplacements durables 2026 ». Aujourd’hui, nous examinons de plus près certaines des mesures qui leur ont permis de remporter ce prix.

1. Science Nord a amélioré son « Bike Barn », offrant ainsi aux employés qui choisissent de se rendre au travail à vélo un endroit sécuritaire et pratique pour entreposer leurs bicyclettes.

2. L'organisation offre à ses employés un service gratuit de recharge de véhicules électriques de niveau 2, contribuant ainsi à rendre les modes de transport à faibles émissions de carbone plus accessibles.

3. Grâce aux activités « Smart Commute », aux pauses-café et aux sondages auprès des employés, Science Nord offre à son personnel l’occasion de se renseigner sur les modes de transport durables et de partager leurs expériences et leurs idées.

Les modes de transport durables ne doivent pas nécessairement être les mêmes dans tous les milieux de travail. Ce qui compte, c’est de trouver des moyens de rendre les options de transport à faibles émissions de carbone plus pratiques, plus sécuritaires et plus accessibles pour les employés.

We're looking for a bit of social network support! Please share:

Our Executive Director found a pair of BRAND NEW, in the BOX work boots in the middle of Kelly Lake Road today. She returned them to Soucie Salo Sudbury, and they confirmed that someone had just been in and was looking for them.

If you lost your boots today, head on back to Soucie Salo! They're waiting for you.
