FAQs
I reside outside the Asia Pacific (APAC) Region. Am I eligible to nominate someone?
Of course! Geography shouldn't limit recognition. If the woman you're nominating is making waves in the safety sector within the APAC region, she is absolutely eligible. Just note, the nominee should live or work within the APAC region to qualify for the award.
I am male. Can I put forward a nomination?
Absolutely! While these awards are dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the achievements of women and those who identify as women, we wholeheartedly welcome nominations from male allies who champion and support women's accomplishments in the safety sector.
If I am a finalist, do I have to attend the awards ceremony in person?
Being a finalist is an exceptional honor, and we'd love for you to be present at the ceremony, especially since it's taking place alongside the prestigious World Congress for Health and Safety. However, we understand everyone has unique circumstances. If you can't attend in person, feel free to nominate a representative to attend on your behalf. Should that not be an option, don't worry — we'll promptly get in touch post-event to update you on the results!
