The Right People in the Right Places for the Right Reasons

The NEB's Flexibility and Mobility policy ensures that we are placing the right people in the right places for the right reasons. The 'right people' are employees who have demonstrated a commitment to learning and achieving results, and who communicate their desire to grow and move forward in the organization. The 'right places' are determined through consideration of the business need and the development needs of the individual. The 'right reasons' refer to the need to develop staff for the future - both to benefit the employee and the organization.

Our Values

With input from staff surveys and Board Member feedback, NEB's values have been refined to express the kind of corporate philosophy we need to follow in order to achieve excellence in our vision and purpose:

• Integrity: We are fair, transparent, and respectful
• Regulatory Leadership: We are responsive, proactive and innovative
• Accountability: We support and hold each other accountable to deliver timely, high quality results in the Canadian public interest
