The Northern Ireland Food To Go Awards, organised by the Food To Go Association, highlights the best in the local food-to-go industry. Recognising excellence in innovation and customer service, the event will be held on 19th November at the Crowne Plaza Belfast. It celebrates the contributions of businesses, from small independents to larger chains, that make Northern Ireland's food scene stand out.
The Best in People and Culture Award recognises businesses that excel in creating inclusive, supportive, and legally compliant workplace cultures. We are also delighted to be on the judging panel for this category. To help you in your submission, we have put together some top tips on what will make a standout entry...
Inclusion is key to a thriving workplace. We will look for initiatives that promote diversity and ensure every employee feels valued. Examples might include diversity training, policies supporting work-life balance, efforts to support cultural and personal needs, and team-building activities. Successful entries will provide specific examples with associated outcomes.
Employee wellbeing is crucial as it impacts attendance, loyalty, commitment, and above all, the feeling of being valued. A winning entry will show a commitment to employee wellbeing and development. This can be through wellbeing initiatives, opportunities for team members to develop, and engagement activities that boost job satisfaction and productivity. Highlighting employee testimonials or metrics that show positive impacts on staff morale and retention will strengthen your entry.
A strong entry will clearly show how you adhere to employment legislation and best practices. This includes providing contracts of employment, ensuring all employees are paid at least the National Minimum Wage, and maintaining safe working practices. Evidence of engagement with legislative changes supported by training and development of you and your team will also be highly regarded.
A successful entry will combine these elements, providing clear, evidence-based examples of how your business excels in its people practices. Our team looks forward to celebrating those who set the standard in creating outstanding workplace environment.
