Employers:

From PTO and PFML to mental health and disability programs, your team is navigating one of the most complex — and human — areas of employee benefits. Let’s give credit where it’s due. 

NEEBC’s 2025 Best Practice Awards recognize the people and programs leading the way in leave and time-off strategy — those designing benefits that meet today’s needs while keeping compliance, well-being, and flexibility at the forefront. 

Nominate your team or colleague for a Best Practice and/or Rising Star Award.
