Net Better Off (NBO) philosophy

Haldimand County is committed to putting the ideals of the NBO philosophy into practice for our employees. NBO promotes a workplace culture of staff enrichment with the goal that every employee feels their career at the County has left them better off than before coming to work for us. 

Achieving this means recognizing that most employees spend more time at work than anywhere else and that as a responsible employer, we take meaningful action to ensure staff needs are met across 6 important areas: Financial, Emotional and Mental, Relational, Physical, Purposeful, and Employable.

What NBO means for our employees


Financial: providing competitive total rewards packages.

Emotional and mental: recognizing the importance of good mental health.

Relational: ensuring everyone feels confident in their role.

Physical: keeping health and safety at the forefront.

Purposeful: fostering a sense of pride knowing your work makes a difference in our community.

Employable: committing to your development at all levels of your career.
