Response Plus Holding PJSC, the Middle East’s leading pre-hospital care and emergency medical services provider, and Burjeel Holdings, a major super-specialty healthcare group in the MENA region, have launched the US$1mn Human Energy Health and Wellbeing Award.
The award will honour an organisation in the global energy sector that delivers the most innovative, impactful, and measurable solution to improve the physical and mental wellbeing of energy workers worldwide.
The winner will be announced at ADIPEC in November 2025.
The initiative represents the first global recognition programme dedicated solely to workforce wellbeing in the energy industry, highlighting the growing importance of mental health, resilience, and overall wellness in operational success and employee engagement.
The award is open to organisations of all sizes, with a strong emphasis on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across the energy supply chain, where the prize money can make a substantial difference to internal culture and long-term wellbeing programmes.
Entries will be reviewed by an independent, international panel of experts from the fields of health, wellness, and leadership.
Encouraging better health
Dr Richard Heron, former VP of Health and Chief Medical Officer at BP, will lead the jury. He will be joined by renowned wellness coach Vinay Menon, who has worked with elite athletes including Chelsea FC and Belgium’s national football team, and journalist and global economic analyst John Defterios.
The Human Energy Awards are aligned with the UAE’s national strategies, including the ‘We the UAE 2031’ vision and the UAE National Wellbeing Strategy 2031.
This new platform reinforces the country’s efforts to set global benchmarks in health, innovation, and workforce wellbeing.
