Employee Well-Being
Supporting physical and mental wellness
Work/Life Flexibility
Flexibility is important to employees of all generations. We are working to provide flexible work options throughout the organization, including telecommuting, flexible time, part-time opportunities, job partnerships and gradual returns from leaves. Although not all positions accommodate every work option, many jobs can be made more flexible, and we are thinking creatively about how, when and where work gets accomplished.
Employees can request paid and unpaid time away to address various circumstances. In Canada, we provide up to eight weeks of unpaid leave to care for a family member who is gravely ill. Our childcare policy treats all parents equally, whether they are the mother, father, biological or adoptive parent – this includes up to 52 weeks off and the possibility for a six-week income top-up to any government childcare benefits. Additionally, TD’s volunteer policy allows employees to receive paid time off for volunteering in the community during regular working hours. Managers have the discretion to provide one-and-a-half days of paid time off for volunteering activities in the community.
Workplace Health and Safety
Wherever we operate around the world, we have a health and safety (H&S) policy and program in place, and our employees and managers play a valuable role in maintaining TD’s excellent H&S record. In Canada, we have a National Policy H&S Committee, H&S representatives at each work location (over 1,500) and H&S training for all managers and H&S representatives.
In the U.S., TD Bank has 12 Safety Committees involving 170 employees who meet quarterly.
