A local company has received a top honour.
Flyer Electric is the 2025 MERIT Contractors Association Employer of the Year in the over 25-employee category.
"I think it's awesome," said Swift Current district manager Jason Luma. "The company has just been outstanding with employees and safety, and just work culture in general. Making sure that comes before the profit."
He feels that even as they've grown as a company they haven't loss the sense of family on their team.
"It's always been the employee," Luma said. "Make sure everyone is happy and getting what they need to do the job right and safely. To me it's always been about quality over anything else."
Luma noted this award really recognizes everyone in the company.
"I know for everyone involved from the management even down to the guys on the tools it's a pretty big deal," he said. "It's a feather in your cap. Bragging rights and just a standard to live up to I guess."
