Commenting on the win, group HR manager at Uform Sharon Logue said: “We are absolutely thrilled to receive an Engagement Excellence Award.

“This is testament to our commitment to people engagement and our investment in a platform to help support business strategy.

“Our ‘Boon’ platform has helped lay the foundations for delivery on the group’s main HR objectives, from rewards and recognition to health and wellbeing and improved communication.

“We have seen significant improvements rights across the business in terms of a more unified, engaged workforce.”

With the business now operating hybrid working, following COVID, Sharon Logue said ‘Boon’ has helped with the challenges of communication with remote workers.

She continued: “Boon has helped enormously with keeping remote employees and non-office based staff connected with the business which, in turn, has resulted in a happy, motivated team, increased productivity, higher growth rates and even better customer satisfaction.”

Private equity firm Cardinal Ireland Partners recently invested in Uform, with plans to scale the business.
