Employee Experience Awards Key Dates

Elevating Employee Experience: Celebrating Excellence

Welcome to the Employee Experience Awards, returning for its fourth year to honour organisations that have truly mastered the art of prioritising the employee experience. In a world where retaining top talent and nurturing a thriving workforce is paramount, EXA shines a spotlight on the trailblazers who have harnessed the power of employee-centric strategies to drive value and maintain a competitive edge.

In the wake of the pandemic’s far-reaching impact on work dynamics, employees everywhere have grappled with unprecedented challenges, facing uncertainties that ripple across social, economic, and professional spheres. This is why we are thrilled to reintroduce the Employee Experience Awards, to recognise employers who have risen to the occasion, taking tangible steps to reinvigorate the employee experience.

A victory at the Employee Experience Awards is more than just an accolade. It’s a testament from the industry that your organisation stands at the forefront, actively listening to, engaging with, and supporting your most invaluable asset: your people.
