BEE AWARD

Katie Swegarden

Employee Recognition
April 2006

CONGRATULATIONS TO
Katie Swegarden

FOR BEING NAMED RCTC'S BEST BEE
OF THE MONTH FOR
April 2006!!!

Here's what her nominator had to say:

Katie has done a wonderful job with "the Buzz" health promotion fyers posted around campus throughout the year. The flyers catch the eye with their color and layout, but are also full of useful information. She has a nice way of presenting health tips without sounding preachy or corny. "The Buzz" may seem like a small thing, but I think it's an important contribution to the campus and we have Katie to thank for that. It is obvious that Katie cares about our students and employees also benefit from her efforts on behalf of good health.

Thanks Katie for all you do!

CONGRATULATIONS, Katie

RECOGNITIONS:

The Employee Relations Committee (ERC) has implemented a process to recognize and reward employees for outstanding job performances. Recognitions can be awarded:

Work Team Recognition. Recognition would include committee work, community service work, and department achievements and could also highlight something new the group has done or is working on. Work Teams who receive this award will be recognized through publicizing the award in the Crossings, on a "recognition" web site, possibly on our digital wall, their very own "pizza party" and gifts.
Individual Recognition. This is a modified reinstatement of the "Bee Award" started by Bonnie Mercer. Recognition would include committee work, community service work, and individual achievements, extra effort, exemplary service or demonstrated expertise in their field. Individuals who receive this award will be recognized through publicizing the award in the Crossings, on the "recognition" web site, possibly on our digital wall, and gifts.
Write Personal Notes. All employees are encouraged to write notes of recognition and appreciation to their colleagues and co-workers. This is a simple gesture which has a positive effect on the sender and receiver.

GUIDING PRINCIPLES:

Anyone can nominate an employee or work team. The nomination remains active indefinitely.
The nomination form should include a narrative of why the nominee(s) merit being named Employee/Work Team {Best Bee(s)} of the Month based on criteria the nominator feels is relevant.
The nominee(s) may be any employee of Rochester Community and Technical College.
Nominations received by the 15th of the month are eligible for consideration of the following month's award.
