Better recognition. Better engagement. Better together.

Supporting the public sector

Dubai Airports
We did our first cycling project on the runway. It was a crazy and challenging idea, but the team did an amazing job—and receiving a High Flyer for it felt incredible.

At ClickUp we like to recognise employees on their work anniversaries. Awardco makes this infinitely easier by automating the process. Now, employees receive a timely email on the day of their anniversary along with a small gift. It's just one small way we're able to express our gratitude and now we're able to do it without any manual labour on our end.

Getting buy in for wellbeing can be kinda challenging because we're all busy. Right? And so now go work out or go do this. And so partnering with organisations such as Awardco, we're trying to think outside of the box and create different types of challenges.

We were doing recognition even before we adopted this platform, but this platform made it so easy for our frontline leaders and middle managers to run the recognition programme.
