Nominate an Outstanding SIUE Employee Today |
|
| |
Do you know an outstanding employee that deserves recognition? Perhaps you have a member of your staff or a co-worker that consistently demonstrates excellence in their work. The beginning of the New Year is a great time to recognize these hard working employees.
The Employee Recognition Program Award is an esteemed accolade bestowed on an employee who epitomizes the University’s core values in his/her daily work. These employees are engaged in accomplishing the mission of the University, upholding our University’s values and routinely exceed the call of duty.
Faculty, staff or students can make nominations, but the immediate supervisor must support the nomination. Employees in their current position for two years, who have not received the award within the last five years are eligible for nomination.
We encourage you to nominate your valued staff members and recognize their hard work and dedication to SIUE.
For more information, please contact Jen Oates-Blair at joatesb@siue.edu or 650-2127 or visit Employment Employee_Recognition_Program.
