HRINZ HR Awards: Entries closing soon

Time’s running out for HR professionals to get their applications in for this year’s awards

Entries for the HRINZ HR Awards 2013, which have been running since 1999, closes this Thursday, so get your entry in before you miss out. The HRINZ HR Awards are offered by the Human Resources Institute of New Zealand to recognise excellence and outstanding achievement within New Zealand’s HR community.

“The HRINZ HR Awards are a wonderful opportunity for people managers in New Zealand to be recognised and rewarded for their outstanding work,” Rachel Walker, HRINZ national president, said.

“Kiwi’s don’t often like to put their hands up and say ‘I’ve done a great job’, so the Awards are one of the few chances we get to come together with our peers and celebrate the successes of our industry. I urge members to be proud of their achievements and make this year the year they enter the HRINZ Awards,” she added.

The main award categories include:

  • HR Business Contribution Award (small to medium enterprise)
  • HR Business Contribution Award (large enterprise)
  • HR Innovation ‘Christian Dahmen’ Award
  • Emerging HR Leader of the Year Award
  • HR Generalist of the Year Award
  • HR Specialist of the Year Award
  • Strategic Pay Supportive CEO Award
  • HR Person of the Year Award

In order to apply, HR practitioners must complete an online application process through the HRINZ Awards website (you can find it here). Entrants must meet the baseline criteria for the category in which they want to enter and each award will be judged according to the evaluation criteria. There is also an outline for each award which states the focus of the award. All three documents will be available on the Awards website.

Entries for the HRINZ HR Awards close 5pm Thursday and the presentation dinner will be held November 21.

HRM Online NZ is the official media partner of the HRINZ HR Awards for 2013.
