"Associates" are Listowel Technology Inc.'s (LTI) most important asset.
We use the term "associates" rather than "employees", as we feel this better reflects our philosophy of working together instead of for someone. As our associates are our most important asset, we have developed a workplace which emphasises safety as #1, a clean and orderly workplace, tools to enable everyone to work in an efficient and professional manner, a harassment and bully free environment where respect for one another is expected and required, training and development as opportunities are provided and involvement opportunities throughout our organization.
Our loyal, skilled and dedicated employees have enabled LTI to meet the increasing demands of the automotive industry and satisfy our customers.
Whether you’re a student, a recent graduate, new to the workforce or one with experience, LTI is a workplace where one can grow, develop and spend a full career. We welcome people with unique experiences, backgrounds and abilities.
