Effective 2022, to qualify for the Sapphire Pinnacle Award and maintain eligibility for subsequent levels, the senior executive in the organization must demonstrate a commitment to health and safety by participating in a mix of related training, advocacy, leadership, and mentorship activities to earn development points each year.
The annual eligibility requirement is 24 points, tracked from April 1 to March 31 of the qualifying year, earned through any combination of the following means. Please use this form to record eligible activities and submit it by April 1 each year.
This process will be required for 2022 award eligibility, but 2021 and prior Topaz Award recipients may also choose to use this new method to qualify for a 2021 Sapphire Award.
