The Employers Association of the NorthEast (EANE) Workplace Impact Award recognizes EANE member organizations that have identified a real workplace challenge and taken meaningful action to address it using EANE resources, services, or training.
This award focuses on practical outcomes. Whether the challenge involved retention, compliance, leadership development, employee engagement, or organizational change, the emphasis is on what was done, how it was implemented, and what changed as a result.
This award is designed to highlight practical workplace improvements that can be applied across industries and organization sizes. Applicants must be current EANE members. Submissions should reflect initiatives implemented within the past 12–18 months. The EANE Board of Directors will act as the judges for these awards. Finalists and selected submissions may be featured in EANE communications. Award Submissions are due by September 22, 2026.
Award Submission Form
Awards Ceremony During the Annual Meeting
The top three finalists for this award will be invited on stage during the Annual Meeting to share their experiences directly with attendees. Each finalist will briefly describe the challenge they faced, the actions they took, and how EANE resources supported their efforts. A moderated question will then be posed to all three finalists to provide additional insight into their approach and decision-making. Following this discussion, the award recipient will be announced live, offering attendees a clear understanding of both the impact achieved and the practical steps behind it.
