[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_toggle title=”1. Keep it simple” admin_label=”1. Keep it simple” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Be clear and specific. Ensure your entry is concise and easy to explain, provide background to outline your objectives and strategy. Give specific examples \u2013 facts, not fluff \u2013 and avoid jargon. Answer the question precisely by breaking up the various sections to further specific questions rather than submitting a generic entry.[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”2. A clear format” admin_label=”2. A clear format” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Structure your entry by using only the entry form provided to you. Stick to word count per section. Avoid using any form of organisational branding. Creating a narrative format will help secure the judges\u2019 attention.[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”3. Supply evidence” admin_label=”3. Supply evidence” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Provide solid evidence against the criteria. Spell it out \u2013 avoid vague generalisations. To give your entry the best possible chance, include HR measures such as employee turnover or cost of employee absence, as well as business measures, such as customer service or profitability. Can you prove a causal link? Has absence dropped because of your wellbeing initiative or is it due to lower job security in uncertain economic times?[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”4. Present a strong business case” admin_label=”4. Present a strong business case” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Try to relate your service to the requirements of the business \u2013 how did it support the business and what was the return on investment? Tell the judges what business problem you were trying to resolve and how your solution helped in commercial terms. Show how the initiative was done by HR for the business, not for HR. Keep timescales in mind regarding certain initiatives.[\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_toggle title=”5. Start early!” admin_label=”5. Start early!” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Always proofread. Spelling mistakes and typos can ruin an otherwise sound entry. You\u2019ll be surprised how many judges have bemoaned entries that are simply confusing and complex. Give yourself plenty of time to put together a really solid entry. Don\u2019t procrastinate, start now![\/et_pb_toggle][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
