Employee Happiness Awards is set to shine a spotlight on the on-going transformations across the human resources (HR) landscape, especially in the context of employee experience and wellness. The brainchild of Plan3Media, a leading event management company known for championing a merit-based awards culture in the region, Employee Happiness Awards is open to nominations in 27 distinctive categories.
In the previous edition held in June 2023, the Employee Happiness Awards received several nominations, some of whom were selected as finalists and gave compelling presentations to an independent jury. The winners and participants were leading companies and HR individuals from industries as diverse as retail, real estate, healthcare, education, and finance. Abu Dhabi Police GHQ, Nakheel, ADNH Compass, Marriott International, Babyshop, Cigna Healthcare, Du, DAMAC Properties, Rove Hotels, Alef Education, Masafi, and Pinsent Masons were among the big winners. Inspired by the overwhelming response to that edition, Plan3Media has added more categories and planned an eventful agenda for the upcoming gala ceremony in Dubai.
CEO of Plan3Media, Jatin Deepchandani, attributed the success of Employee Happiness Awards to its relentless focus on upholding transparency and integrity through a merit-only approach. “As corporate awards increasingly became self-congratulatory exercises, we seized the opportunity to set ourselves apart by instilling a culture of meritocracy. Our relentless efforts to make the Employee Happiness Awards synonymous with HR excellence are now yielding tangible results, distinguishing our accolades from the rest.” In line with Jatin's words, the Employee Happiness Awards is validated by a reputable global accreditation programme called Awards TrustMark.
