Policy on Nominations Sources
The International Tug & Salvage Awards respects the privacy of individuals and organisations who submit nominations for our awards programme. We do not disclose the identities of nominators without their express permission. There are several reasons for this policy:
Confidentiality - We want to create an environment where nominators feel comfortable providing open and honest feedback without concern that their participation will be made public without consent. Maintaining confidentiality allows for more candid assessments.
Avoid Undue Influence - Disclosing identities of nominators could create external pressures that influence the selection process, such as lobbying by interest groups. Keeping sources private reduces potential bias in judging.
Protect Relationships - For certain categories, nominations may come from an organisation's own clients, members, or industry peers. Public disclosure could damage important business or professional relationships. Our policy safeguards these connections.
Fairness - The focus in judging is on the merits of the nominees, not who nominated them. Publicising nomination sources could create perceptions of unfair advantage if a nominee is connected to or endorsed by an influential person or group.
While we appreciate every nomination, our selection process depends on impartial and rigorous criteria to maintain the credibility of the The International Tug & Salvage Awards. We believe this policy supports a fair and ethical evaluation of nominees based on achievement and excellence alone.
Nominators may of course self-disclose if they wish. Nominees are encouraged to publicly share news of their nomination with proper attribution to our awards.
