Belfast Harbour Looks For The Best In Responsible Business
Belfast Harbour is calling for responsible businesses to enter the 2020 Responsible Business Awards in Northern Ireland, run by Business in the Community.
The Responsible Business Awards are now open for entries and are looking for companies who are making a difference by taking practical action to address pressing social and environmental issues.
The awards are free to enter and applications can be made online at www.bitcni.org.uk/awards. Entries will close on Friday 28 February 2020 at 5:00pm. The winners will be announced at a gala dinner at the ICC Belfast on Thursday 28 May 2020.
This is the fifteenth year of these awards, which includes eleven categories which allows firms off all sizes and sectors to apply. Belfast Harbour is sponsoring the Diversity & Inclusion category.
Belfast Harbour’s Chief Executive Joe O’Neill says:
 “Belfast Harbour is delighted to once again support the Responsible Business Awards and is specifically encouraging companies to enter the Diversity & Inclusion category – for the organisation that best demonstrates excellence in creating and developing a diverse and inclusive workplace that offers opportunities for all.”
Business in the Community NI Managing Director, Kieran Harding, said:
“The Responsible Business Awards recognise and reward firms in Northern Ireland that are embracing the journey to build better workforces and create a sustainable economy and healthy communities.
“The awards are free to enter and I’d encourage every business, no matter how big or small, to have a look at the range of categories and get your entries ready. If your organisation is acting as a force for good, we want to hear from you.”
To help companies to create the best possible entries, Business in the Community is running a Showcase & Share Breakfast at Allstate NI on Monday 11 November 2019 from 8:30 – 10:30 am where those who’d like to enter can gain an insight, tips and advice on how best to put together their applications.
