3/26/24, 2:45 PM UAE’s HR excellence in spotlight as merit-based Employee Happiness Awards begins nominations
Dubai, UAE: Employee Happiness Awards is set to shine a spotlight on ongoing
transformations across the human resources (HR) landscape, especially in the context of

employee experience and wellness. The brainchild of Plan3Media, a leading event

management company known for championing a merit-based awards culture in the
region, Employee Happiness Awards is open to nominations in 27 distinctive categories.

In the previous edition held in June 2023, the Employee Happiness Awards received

several nominations, some of whom were selected as finalists and gave compelling
presentations to an independent jury. The winners and participants were leading

companies and HR individuals from industries as diverse as retail, real estate, healthcare,
education, and finance. Abu Dhabi Police GHQ, Nakheel, ADNH Compass, Marriott

International, Babyshop, Cigna Healthcare, Du, DAMAC Properties, Rove Hotels, Alef
Education, Masafi, and Pinsent Masons were among the big winners. Inspired by the

overwhelming response to that edition, Plan3Media has added more categories and

planned an eventful agenda for the upcoming gala ceremony in Dubai.

CEO of Plan3Media, Jatin Deepchandani, attributed the success of Employee Happiness

Awards to its relentless focus on upholding transparency and integrity through a merit-only

approach. “As corporate awards increasingly became self-congratulatory exercises, we
seized the opportunity to set ourselves apart by instilling a culture of meritocracy. Our

relentless efforts to make the Employee Happiness Awards synonymous with HR
excellence are now yielding tangible results, distinguishing our accolades from the rest.”

In line with Jatin's words, the Employee Happiness Awards is validated by a reputable
global accreditation programme called Awards TrustMark.
