The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) recently awarded the York SHRM its prestigious EXCEL Gold Award for the Chapter’s accomplishments in 2014.
The award is part of the SHRM Affiliate Program for Excellence, which aligns individual chapters and councils with SHRM’s goals. The award recognizes accomplishments and strategic activities and initiatives that enhance the human resources profession.
“At SHRM, advancing the human resources profession is our mission. The work of our chapters and councils are central to accomplishing that,” said Henry G. (Hank) Jackson, president and CEO of SHRM. “Receiving this award is testament to the York SHRM's commitment to advancing the HR profession through local networking and professional development activities.”
The EXCEL award can be earned at four levels: bronze, silver, gold and platinum, and each level has a prescribed set of requirements and accomplishments that have to be met. The York SHRM will receive recognition in SHRM publications and conferences, a certificate of recognition, and special signage to display at its meetings and events.
