Five new Specialist Awards were up for grabs this year, alongside the Best Agency and In-house categories.
Finalists in each category were chosen via online paper judging. Representatives of the shortlisted entrants then took part in panel sessions via Zoom with judges in their category.
They also identify some of the main trends – good and bad – in employment practices across the sector.
