Winners of the 2017 UK & European Employee Engagement Awards
Southanpton FC, Homeserve, RBS, the Post Office and GSK among the winners of the
2017 UK & European Employee Engagement Awards in association with People Insight
In a first for the Employee Engagement Awards, in association with People Insight, two companies were awarded Company of the Year. Homeserve and Southampton Football Club shared the blue ribbon award which was presented at the gala ceremony at Wembley Stadium last night.
The Employee Engagement Awards honours those organisations that put workforce engagement at the heart of their business strategy. This year’s winners demonstrate how far-reaching Employee Engagement is today. They span manufacturing, banking, IT, pharmaceuticals, retail, the NHS, service companies, transport and the sporting world.
Founder and CEO Matt Manners said: “Congratulations to all our winners. This year the entries really have proven the transformational value that focusing on the employee experience can deliver. Not only do engaged employees help develop a clear competitive advantage but will also help their organisations to navigate a world facing continuous change.
Tom Debenham, MD of People Insight, said: “The quality of entries has again been astounding, showing a shift towards employee engagement as business as usual. Organisations have developed strong internal capability. Instead of looking for single magic bullets, they are taking fully integrated approaches that start before recruitment and extend through the employee journey. When you see the employee experience being led from the C-suite as we increasingly do, you know it’s serious stuff.”
The winners were announced at a sold-out ceremony at the iconic Wembley Stadium on January 25, 2018. Photos and interviews with winners can be found at https://uk.ee-awards.com/engagement-zone/

Winners, Highly Commended organisations and finalists from a wide range of businesses and sectors will be presenting their case studies.
