The awards were presented at the BambooHR Summit conference.
The first year of the awards was highly competitive, with applicant organizations from many countries, reflecting the common desire of human resources teams around the world to highlight the positive impact that they have on their organizations and colleagues. In their submissions, applicants for the BambooHR Hero Awards detailed their initiatives and programs in their respective categories. This year's winners represent various industries including technology, transportation, and non-profit organizations.
"We're so impressed with and inspired by our clients' stellar HR teams and their strategic programs," said Ben Peterson, CEO and co-founder of BambooHR. "We see tremendous positive impacts on their organizations and love recognizing their efforts and outcomes through our BambooHR Hero Awards."
The BambooHR Hero Awards honors customers and their excellence in HR in six categories. A total of seven winners were chosen for the six categories, with two winners for one category:
"We're committed to ensuring new employees feel a part of the team and are set up for success from day one," said Kat Judd, VP of People Operations at Lucid. "We're honored to receive the Onboarding Hero Award and we're committed to continue to provide meaningful experiences to ensure new team members are proud to be associated with our brand."
"At Left, we believe culture is the DNA, the pulse, the heartbeat of a company, and we've built our HR programs around that underlying philosophy since day one," said Tracy McDonald, Director of Talent and Culture at Left. "It feels great to have the success of that 'people first' practice recognized by winning the High-Impact HR Award."
Finalists were selected based on the quality, impact and results of their programs. They were then interviewed by members of the BambooHR Hero Awards Committee.
