Operation Santa Claus

Christmas should be a celebration for every child. Issues at home should not prevent children from dreaming about this special day and enjoying it. Every year, our volunteers take part in Opération Père Noël. The event provides gifts to children who wrote Santa Claus a letter and a wish list and gives them the chance to discover a surprise under the tree on Christmas morning.

Breakfast Club of Canada

Every Canadian child deserves an equal chance at success, and this journey starts with breakfast. Gastier joins more than 200 companies to provide breakfasts to children in need and help them develop their full potential. Once a week, members of our social sommittee bring breakfast to children in a disadvantaged school near the company’s headquarters, to give them the energy they need to succeed in their day, their year and ultimately their life.

D'un couvert à l'autre

This association helps people affected by mental health disorders, especially schizophrenia, to get reintegrated into society by offering them social and professional support. In addition to that mission, the centre is also a social printing facility. It offers document design and digital printing services to companies to encourage affected people to develop their autonomy and learn to manage their condition through employment.

Our top priority: Health, safety and environment

Since 1971, Gastier’s health, safety and environment policies have evolved over time, rapidly propelling the company to the position of industry leader in construction in Quebec. Every day, we invite all our employees to adopt a proactive behaviour to always outperform standards, regardless of the industry in which we are. Only a safe and responsible environment can lead to working more than 800,000 hours a year and still report an annual incident rate amongst the lowest in the industry....

As health, safety and environment leaders, we have opened our own training centre to teach the best practices to our employees. We are really proud for our expertise in HSE to be certified by the Ministère du travail, de l’emploi et de la solidarité sociale. This agreement allows us to deliver more than 10,000 hours of training each year.
