The award was given for the LifeWorks by Morneau Shepell total well-being solution, which helps organizations effectively support the mental, physical, social and financial well-being of their workforce at every stage of their journey. The LifeWorks platform brings an entirely different approach to supporting the health and well-being of employees, enabling customer organizations to meet the increasingly complex health and wellness needs of their people through a platform that anticipates problems before they start and focuses on rewards, connection, prevention and intervention. 

"Morneau Shepell is thrilled to win Brandon Hall Group's silver excellence award for our LifeWorks total well-being solution," said Neil King, president, LifeWorks and executive vice president, Morneau Shepell. "The LifeWorks platform truly is a unique advancement in HR technology, combining a trusted employee assistance program with features that keep people connected, build workplace culture, and support the total well-being of people around the world.

That is the ultimate differentiator – whether the technology has a positive business impact. Excellence in Technology Award winners pass that test with flying colours," said Rachel Cooke, chief operating officer of Brandon Hall Group and head of the awards program.

"An Excellence in Technology Award also validates the vision of the technology development team, the wisdom of the company's investment in the solution, and the value the technology brings to the end-user," said Mike Cooke, chief executive officer of Brandon Hall Group.
