October 22, 2003 Seaspan International Ltd., a member of the Washington Marine Group (WMG), is proud to be named one of "Canada's Top 100 Employers". The book "Canada's Top 100 Employers" was the number one selling business book last year and it is likely to be a best-seller again this year. It is a definitive guide to firms that lead their peers in providing a great place to work. "This is a well earned recognition of our accomplishments," said Kyle Washington, Chairman and CEO. "WMG has been striving to improve all areas of our business with a strong emphasis on safety and employee lifestyles. We are committed to continuing to improve all aspects of the company as a whole. I am very proud of the hard work and effort that all of the company's employees have made." The search for the Top 100 Employers starts with a review of the recruitment history of over 51,000 eligible employers across Canada. Companies were asked to complete an extensive application process that includes a thorough review of their operations and human resource practices. "What makes this designation so special is that only five other BC-based companies were included in this year's list of 'Canada's Top 100 Employers' and Seaspan is the only marine services company listed," said Kyle. "I'm glad we were able to represent BC and Canada as a leader in this province and this very well respected, historic industry. I offer my congratulations to the companies who were selected."
