Under the department’s recognition and reward policies, nominations for awards are proposed and administered at a local level, therefore we do not have a central record of nominations.

Approved awards made in the form of special bonuses and vouchers are available in the Ministry of Justice Workforce Monitoring Reports, which are published annually:

2015/16: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/moj-workforce-monitoring-report-2015-to-2016

2016/17: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/moj-annual-diversity-report-2016-to-2017

2017/18: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/ministry-of-justice-workforce-monitoring-report-2017-to-2018

2018/19: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/ministry-of-justice-workforce-monitoring-report-2018-to-2019

The published data covers awards issued in the form of special bonus for each year up to March 2019. The published data in 2018/19 also includes award issued in the form of vouchers.

Awards data covering April 2019 to March 2020 will be published in the Ministry of Justice Workforce Monitoring Report for 2019/20 in due course.
