Top employment law firm on why supporting HR is so vital
HRD’s annual Australian HR Awards will soon recognize excellence and innovation across the HR profession – in association with event partner Australian Business Lawyers & Advisors (ABLA), also the sponsor of the Australian HR Champion (CEO) of the Year award.
20 categories are open to HR teams, individuals, companies, programs and initiatives that raised the bar over the past year. And – during this time of COVID-19 crisis and its massive impact on the workplace – it’s a particularly apt moment to celebrate HR achievements.
“Now, more than ever, it is a critical time to support our HR professionals during one of the toughest years businesses will ever face,” says ABLA’s CEO and director Nigel Ward.
“The pandemic presents unique challenges to the HR community. Whether this comes through supporting executives and CEOs simply cope, to reorganising the workforce, stand downs and for some, temporarily up-scaling. It’s our honour to be leading the acknowledgment for excellence in the field of HR. For some the awards will be much needed good news, while for others, acknowledgement of the toughest year of their career.
As ABLA celebrates its 10th anniversary during this global turmoil, let’s share the achievements of the HR profession and work together to rebuild businesses when this passes. We wish all entrants the very best of luck.”
Nominations for all categories can be submitted online here until May 1.
