The Singapore HR Awards 2006

Winners in 17 award categories, reflecting the entire spectrum of the HR profession, were recognised at The Singapore HR Awards 2006 presentation gala held at The Conrad Centennial Singapore hotel on 31 May 2006.

The guest-of-honour for the glitzy event, Mr Hawazi Daipi, Senior Parliamentary Secretary, Ministry of Manpower, was joined by over 400 industry captains, HR chief and professionals in Singapore and from abroad. Impressed but not surprised by the turnout, Mr Hawazi told the audience, "The large number of us gathered here today, ranging from the HR fraternity to CEOs and senior management , is a testament to the stature of the Award, and a recognition of the pivotal role that HR plays in every organisation."

He added, "And we should not be surprised, as HR is a profession which makes or breaks an organisation's all-important people strategy."

Aside from underscoring the prestige of The Singapore HR Awards, Mr Hawazi highlighted the importance of the Awards in bringing HR to the fore. He said, "Let me congratulate SHRI for re-launching The Singapore HR Awards at its 40th anniversary last year. It provides a platform for the HR fraternity and professionals to come together and celebrate their achievements as a community of professionals, showcasing successful HR ideas, practices and programmes and building a sense of shared identity and purpose as well."

Echoing Mr Hawazi's sentiments, Mdm Ho Geok Choo, President of SHRI said, "The Singapore HR Awards is a celebration to mark the successes and accomplishments of our people managers in their quest to get the best out of employees, management and organisations. When companies come forth to showcase and share their initiatives through such a platform, it elevates industry standards and human capital management  processes, and most certainly advances businesses as management learn from each other."
