new things in her familiar
environment.
“My overall experience at Teck
has been a fun learning journey
and I’ve really enjoyed that part of
it,” she says. “I’ve spent a majority
of my time at this site working
with great people who are like a
community to me.”
Headquartered in Vancouver,

commitment to providing the
opportunities, training and development programs that employees
need to succeed.
“An important part of our job at
Teck is making sure we’re creating
meaningful career paths and
engaging work for our employees,” says Patrick Doyle, vice
president, human resources and
talent. “We provide our employees
the tools and skillset they need
to fulfil their potential and make
an impactful contribution to an
organization that’s trying to make
a difference in the world.”
As an operator instructor,
Poznikoff plays an important role
in driving Teck’s culture of safety.
She meets with shift leaders and
team members daily to make
sure they are updated on Teck’s
training and safety practices,
and hosts regular crew talks that
focus on specific topics such as
safety shares and feedback to help
develop new programs.
Our culture is built on
caring for our people, and
we always prioritize their
well-being.

that I have this chance to provide
feedback that is always valued,”

who have since retired and gather
as many stories as possible on how
things have been improved at our
operations site as the continuous
improvement is important.”
