Celebrating Indonesia’s Top Workplaces Through the Power of EX
After a highly successful debut in 2025, the Employee Experience Awards (EXA) returns to Indonesia for its second year! This prestigious awards programme shines a spotlight on organisations that are redefining what it means to create meaningful and exceptional employee experiences.
Indonesia’s HR landscape is evolving at a remarkable pace, with organisations placing greater emphasis on employee well-being, people-first leadership, and workplace cultures that empower growth. In today’s dynamic market, employee experience has become a key differentiator – driving productivity, customer satisfaction, and long-term business success.
At its core, the Employee Experience Awards takes a holistic approach, recognising excellence across four key pillars:
1. Leadership
2. Learning
3. Engagement
4. Talent Acquisition
By highlighting achievements across these pillars, the Employee Experience Awards aims to inspire Indonesian organisations to elevate their HR strategies, champion employee well-being, and build workplaces where people can truly thrive.
Join us as we celebrate the trailblazers shaping the future of work in Indonesia – where employee experience isn’t just a priority, but the heartbeat of sustainable success.
Stay connected with us on social media for the latest updates as the awards unfold.
