CCIWA CEO Chris Rodwell said he was thrilled with the huge response to the awards.
“This event is the first of its kind anywhere in Australia so to attract more than 100 high-quality nominations shows how passionate WA businesses are about diversity, equity and inclusion,” he said.
“We’ve had entries from small and family businesses right up to some of WA’s biggest corporate employers, spanning every sector of the economy.
“These businesses have been quietly making a difference in their own workplaces and in the community. The CCIWA Diversity and Inclusion Awards are a chance for them to be recognised.”
Rodwell said the Gala Dinner will be a chance for not only businesses but the wider community to come together to recognise and celebrate “the businesses that are going above and beyond to make WA the best place to live and work”.
