Irish News Launch
There has never been a more important time to reinforce the message that people are by far Northern Ireland’s most important resource. That was a message delivered both by Department of Employment and Learning minister Sir Reg Empey and Irish News editor Noel Doran at the launch of the third annual Irish News Workplace & Employment Awards in Belfast.
This year’s awards – which take place in the Ramada Hotel on June 18 – will reflect how the best, most creative and most innovative people and businesses in the north have been fleet of foot in acclimatising to current circumstances.
There will be eight categories up for grabs in this year’s awards, and size will be no barrier, with blue-chip companies expected to compete alongside many smaller innovative firms.
The launch was attended by representatives of the Workplace & Employment Awards’ five business partners – Tughans Solicitors, KPMG and Royal Mail – which have all been involved previously – and new partners for 2009, Investors in People and firmus Energy.
Also present were Julie Scates from the Recruitment and Employment Confederation (REC) and Peter Aiken representing the Chartered Institute of Personnel Development (CIPD).
Entry to the awards is free and the closing date for entries is 14th May.
