There's still time to participate in the 2024 UK Best Places To Work Awards
UK-based gaming companies are invited to participate in the GamesIndustry.biz Best Places To Work Awards 2024. Submit your entries here.
The questionnaire for 2024 has been updated to address critical areas, reflecting the challenges faced by gaming businesses and employees this year.
Additionally, firms can compete for special awards separate from the main badge process.
Open to all UK game-related companies, including developers, publishers, and media firms, submissions can be made via this link until Wednesday, August 15. Winners will be revealed at an event at the Royal Institute on Wednesday, September 18.
The awards utilize a dual-survey system: one for employers (20% of the score) and another for employees (80% of the score). Detailed information on the award process and judging criteria can be found here.
All data from employers and employees is deleted after the awards are processed. Names of non-winning companies will not be disclosed.
Participants will receive a free report summarizing their scores. Additional benchmarking and advanced reports are available for purchase.
