People Analytics Award
Workforce data that changed a decision.
About this category
This award recognises an HR team or analyst whose use of people data and workforce analytics has led to better decisions about the workforce. Judges look for the question asked, the quality of the analysis and the action that followed.
Eligibility
- Open to HR teams
- People analytics teams and individual analysts in any sector
Judging criteria
- Quality of the question
- Rigour of analysis
- Clarity of insight
- Action taken
- Ethical use of data
Qualitative criteria
Insight that leaders acted on.
Metrics
- Decisions influenced
- Costs saved
- Retention or productivity improved and adoption of dashboards
Additional criteria
Entries should include a concise case study of the HR work, supporting figures such as engagement, retention, absence, capability or cost, and, where possible, comments from leaders, managers or employees. Never include names or any detail that could identify an individual employee, especially in employee relations, wellbeing or casework examples: describe cases in anonymised terms and give results as percentages or ranges. Nothing in an entry is shared beyond the judging panel. Judges consider the size of the organisation and the HR team, so a one person HR function competes on equal terms with a large people directorate.
