WHO WE ARE

When it comes to health, we're always looking for ways
to push for better. It's why we were founded in the first place. In 1957, our
founder, pharmacist William Wilkinson, witnessed a mother sacrifice her health
by forgoing her own medicine to pay for her sick daughter's prescription. He
knew there had to be a better way. So, he introduced North America's first
prepaid drug plan, and GreenShield was born as a not-for-profit with a mission
to support better health for all Canadians.

We aren't just a health and benefits company. We're
the only not-for-profit social enterprise that brings worlds of coverage and
care together, all in one place.
We're noble challengers, purposefully building a better
way and we need the best people to help us create a more holistic approach that
takes care of the mind and body.

Our mission is to create better health for all
Canadians, and we know that starts with our employees.
