The Bloom Awards, formerly known as the IN TOUCH Awards, began in 2011 by the founder Mari Diaz, who wanted to find a way to honor and celebrate the people in the workers' compensation industry.

Annually, nominations are open to workers' compensation professionals nationwide. Once all nominations are collected, a dedicated voting link is provided, allowing industry professionals to cast their votes for their preferred nominees. After the voting period concludes, the votes are collected and weighed by region. Subsequently, the results undergo review by our advisory board. It's essential to note that Bloom does not select the winners of the Awards; they are determined solely by votes from individuals within the workers' compensation industry.

Anyone who is part of the workers' compensation community can nominate a colleague, company, or client.
