About the Awards

EXA2021-Logo-transparent

The Employee Experience Awards 2026 will celebrate the transformational power of exceptional employee experiences – honouring the individuals and organisations that have placed people at the heart of their strategies, and in doing so, redefined what modern workplaces can achieve.

Now in its fifth year, the awards will continue to shine a spotlight on organisations that are reshaping the future of work through innovative, people-centric approaches.

At Human Resources Online, we believe that when employees feel valued, supported, and inspired, they become the driving force behind innovation, productivity, and sustainable success.

This prestigious event has been carefully designed to reflect the evolving priorities of today’s workplace and is built on four fundamental pillars of a holistic employee experience strategy: Leadership, Learning, Engagement, and Talent Acquisition.

As Asia’s only peer-reviewed HR awards programme exclusively focused on the employee experience, the Employee Experience Awards stands as a testament to the dedication, creativity, and impact of HR teams across the region.

Entries will be judged by a distinguished panel of senior HR leaders from diverse industries, ensuring a fair, transparent, and rigorous evaluation process. This is your opportunity to share the initiatives, strategies, and success stories that have placed the employee experience at the core of your organisation’s mission.

Join us in celebrating the trailblazers who are championing diversity, equity, and inclusion, and creating workplaces where every individual feels empowered to thrive.

If you or your HR team have achieved something extraordinary this year, this is your moment to shine. Share your stories. Inspire the industry. Be recognised as best-in-class.
