Page1 / 1

100% of survey complete.

The People Do Matter Awards, initiated in 2000, focused on recognizing innovative HR practices at organizations in Southwestern PA. In an effort to freshen up the program, the PHRA has designed a campaign for 2015-2016 to motivate and inspire leadership in the Pittsburgh region to consider employee-centered work practices.

Welcome to “Engaging Pittsburgh: It’s All About the People!” – a fresh take on building a reciprocal relationship between employers and employees. The award portion of the program is still alive and well – with a twist. The categories below are intended to inspire and drive creativity when organizations are considering submitting a nomination. First, second and third place awards will be announced and celebrated at the Awards Event in Spring 2016.

We are now accepting nominations for the Awards portion of the campaign.
