Since our founding more than 20 years ago, Vermilion has been guided by our core values of Excellence, Trust, Respect and Responsibility. We believe that producing energy for the many people and businesses that rely upon it to meet their daily needs and sustain their quality of life is both a great privilege and a great responsibility.
Excellence. Trust. Respect. Responsibility. These four core values guide what we do and how we do it.
Our strong culture is the single most important factor in our long-term success.
Vermilion’s highest priority is conducting our business in a way that ensures the health and safety of our people and those involved directly or indirectly in our operations.
Vermilion focuses on a shared value approach to strategically investing in our communities. This is embodied in our company mission statement: to deliver superior rewards to investors, employees, partners and the communities in which we operate.

Vermilion has demonstrated excellent results in the Great Place to Work Institute’s® Best Workplaces competition, which we use as a tool for continuous improvement in our culture and people practices. While we put the survey on hold in 2020 due to COVID-19, we continued to ask our staff for important feedback by switching to smaller, more specific and more regular staff surveys.
In 2019, the most recent year that Vermilion participated in the Great Place to Work program, we were recognized as being among the:
The rankings are based on the Institute’s two-fold approach, which includes an independent assessment of our culture along with our employees' confidential responses to the Institute’s survey.
In part, we attribute these strong results to the importance we place on reviewing and addressing the staff feedback shared through the surveys. We believe this is so important that we ask staff in all business units to participate in the survey, regardless of whether their staff count meets the minimum requirement to compete for Best Workplace recognition. This is the case in Australia and the United States, where our staff count is below the qualifying threshold.
Through the survey results, we gain a strong understanding of why our people choose to come to Vermilion, what they value and why they choose to stay, including competitive total compensation, exciting opportunities for growth and development, and pride in how we give back to the communities where our people live and work.
Professional and personal culture has been carefully developed on a corporate scale. All workers I have interacted with are proud to say they work at Vermilion. I count myself lucky to be able to come to work every day at this company.
I believe we care about the wellbeing and safety of our people.?We strive to train and assess our people to ensure they are well informed of their jobs and the hazards, risks and mitigation to perform their jobs well and safely.?Not only for their safety but the safety of other people in our community and the environment. I would want my family members to work for us or an organization with our same values as employees or vendors knowing that we are trying our best to ensure everyone arrives home safely every day. I think we are doing fairly well on mentoring our workers and strive to continuously improve.
