Our Workplace
No matter what field you are in, working in the uranium industry adds many dimensions to the job: physics, politics, environmental considerations, a vigorous protest movement, a volatile market and the critical importance of managing radioactive material at our operations.
Today, Cameco is an organization of about 3,000 employees with offices, operations and exploration projects around the world.

Cameco’s highest priority is maintaining the safety of our workers, contractors and the public. By creating a work environment that minimizes and eliminates hazards and ensuring work processes reflect a focus on quality, we are building a workplace that assures workforce and public safety and protection of the environment.

Cameco is committed to creating and maintaining a welcoming, inclusive, barrier-free work environment which allows all employees to perform their jobs at an optimal level. Achieving this desired environment depends upon mutual respect, creative problem solving and co-operation.
Respectful:
Every employee has the right to work in an atmosphere that is free from harassment, violence and discrimination. Cameco's respectful workplace program reflects our commitment to create and maintain a work environment in which all people are treated with dignity and respect.
