VANCOUVER, British Columbia – October 17, 2009 – airG, the global leader in powering mobile communities and wireless social networking, was named one of BC's Top 55 Employers for 2010. Winners of the BC′s Top Employers competition were selected from applicants to the national Canada′s Top 100 Employers competition. To develop this year′s list, editors at Mediacorp Canada Inc. examined the recruitment histories of over 75,000 employers across Canada that it tracks for its popular job search site, Eluta.ca. From this initial group, Mediacorp editors invited 16,000 of the fastest-growing employers to apply, plus another 8,000 companies and organizations in industries that they wanted to examine more closely. Employers completed an extensive application process that included a detailed review of their operations and HR practices. Over 2,600 employers started this year′s application process nationally. The final applicant pool was up 3.7% over last year′s total, which was also a record.

Mediacorp editors graded each of the applicants on eight key areas: (1) Physical Workplace; (2) Work Atmosphere & Social; (3) Health, Financial & Family Benefits; (4) Vacation & Time Off; (5) Employee Communications; (6) Performance Management; (7) Training & Skills Development; and (8) Community Involvement. These criteria have remained consistent since the inception of the national competition, now in its 10th year.
