Objectives and purpose
The Malaysia HR Awards serves to recognise and acknowledge individuals and organisations/corporations in the HR community for their relentless effort in advancing the HR sphere, including developing talent, advocating best HR practices and trailblazing new HR initiatives.
The awards ceremony also serves as an excellent platform for the HR community to share and exchange ideas, as well as learn from one another.
Organisations with this accolade can boost their corporate profile and that of their HR leaders.
It also ensures peer recognition in the HR community for the commendable work of HR leaders in managing one of their greatest assets, i.e. the people in their respective organisations.
