Awarding People for Excellence (APEX)
Recognizing public sector excellence is one of the 'Investing in Public Service: serving Yukon people' initiatives. APEX – Awarding People for Excellence - describes the overall framework for corporate awards, how departmental and other award programs fit within that framework, and the principles, objectives, guiding parameters, and recognition criteria for awards programs in government.
The Premier's Award of Excellence is the first corporate award to flow from the APEX framework. The Premier’s award aims to reinforce pride in the public service, call public attention to the good work of the public service and provide an opportunity to showcase people’s talents and good teamwork. The award also encourages results, cooperation, understanding and respect within the public service.
