The
eighth
GamesIndustry.biz
Best
Places
To
Work
Awards
for
the
UK
took
place
today
at
the
Royal
Institution
in
London,
as
part
of
our
HR
Summit.

The
event
crowned
26
game
companies
for
their
excellence
in
supporting
their
staff,
based
on
a
two
survey
system,
one
for
the
employer
to
fill
in
(worth
20%
of
the
score)
and
the
other
for
employees
(80%
of
the
score).

The
winners
are
divided
into
three
categories
–
large,
mid-sized,
and
small
companies
–
and
you
can
find
the
list
below.
Congratulations
to
all
the
winning
firms!

Alongside
these
Best
Places
badges,
we
revealed
the
winners
of
six
special
awards
designed
to
highlight
excellent
work
from
companies
in
specific
areas
such
as
combating
climate
change,
supporting
charities,
ensuring
a
healthy
workforce,
encouraging
diversity,
and
working
with
educators.

We
also
have
an
award
to
highlight
the
UK
games
industry’s
HR
Hero,
which
replaces
our
previous
‘Best
Boss’
award
–
it
went
to
Green
Man
Gaming’s
human
resources
director
and
data
protection
officer
Ilona
Popczyk.

The
event
also
hosted
the
G
Into
Gaming
Award
once
again,
which
is
handed
to
someone
who
has
been
championing
women
in
the
industry
–
this
year
it
was
won
by
Harinder
Sangha
of
Maverick
Games.

The
