PeopleReady's awards in the international competition included:

• Best user experience (Grand) for its website redesign, which complements recent enhancements to its tools that connect people and work faster and more easily than ever before. The redesigned website reflects PeopleReady's refreshed brand, creates a foundation for future growth, and keeps a laser-like focus on the user experience. The website was designed for the user, with simple, actionable paths for the company's two primary audiences: businesses and workers.
• Business to consumer marketing campaign (Grand) and integrated marketing campaign (Grand) for its Work Within Reach™ campaign, building upon its brand and ongoing elevation of staffing technology and delivery models—which included a sponsorship of two-time Indianapolis 500 champ Takuma Sato, a nationally broadcast TV ad, and a sweepstakes with nearly 600,000 entrants aimed at encouraging people to join the workforce during the current worker shortage.
• Advertising campaign (Grand), branding effort (Grand), video campaign (Gold) for its Ride to Work TV commercial, featuring two-time Indianapolis 500 champ Takuma Sato and highlighting PeopleReady's mission to connect people and work fast.
