CELEBRATING EXCELLENCE IN EX LEADERSHIP

Employees have been grappling with the disruption to work brought about by the challenging economic and social environment situations across the region, which have brought unprecedented levels of uncertainty, instability, and stress to their lives.

That’s why Human Resources Online is bringing back the Employee Experience Awards to Hong Kong for the second year, aiming to honour organisations that have excelled at focusing on the employee experience to help retain and excite their best talent, while creating value and maintaining a competitive edge.

Winning an award at the Employee Experience Awards is an important acknowledgement from the industry that your organisation is taking a lead in listening, engaging and supporting your most valuable asset – your talent, and we want to recognise these accomplishments.
