Canon recognizes its employees for going above and beyond their job responsibilities. The Canon Spirit Awards program celebrates the outstanding efforts of employees who make a positive difference for our company, colleagues, and customers. In the past, honorees have enjoyed a trip exploring the many sights of New York City. The image to the right features the 2014 Spirit Award honorees.

Service Recognition

Employees who celebrate certain milestone anniversaries with Canon are recognized and honored with the ability to make a gift selection from our Service Awards website. Employees can choose amongst a wide selection of gifts including electronics, houseware, jewelry, and of course Canon products.

“Longevity is very important to Canon's success. With each passing year, our employees gain valuable knowledge that makes them an even greater asset to our Company. Canon is only as strong as the people who form the foundation for its success. We have a worldwide reputation for remarkable technology, but it is the employees behind our outstanding products and services that are truly our most valuable asset.” – Joe Adachi, Chairman & CEO, Canon U.S.A., Inc.

Canon has historically participated in the national Take Your Child to Work Day by offering a program that allows employees’ children to visit the workplace. A day of engaging and educational activities are planned to have the children learn about our company, products, technology, and environmental initiatives.

Additionally, at our headquarters in Melville, NY, employees have the opportunity to participate in Company-sponsored sports teams. The leagues compete at local parks, and participation encourages teamwork and building relationships with colleagues.
