The UCA Staff Senate is seeking nominations to honor a staff member who has made significant contributions to the university during this quarter.
The deadline to nominate “Employee of the Quarter” is Sept. 30. Any classified or non-classified full-time UCA employee with one year of continuous service as of July 1, 2010 is eligible to be nominated by faculty, staff, students, or alumni.
“The Staff Senate knows the importance of recognizing our staff for their great dedication and service to this university. We took it upon ourselves to increase that recognition by creating the Employee of the Quarter process,” said Larry Burns, Staff Senate president. “Through our fundraising efforts and support from the administration, the Employee of the Quarter Committee has been able to come up with a quarterly process and recognition package that fits the level of recognition.”
Each Employee of the Quarter recipient will receive a certificate, $150 in BearBucks, and a UCA gift. Recipients will be recognized at the annual Awards Reception in April and be invited to attend the Employee of the Year luncheon.
The Staff Senate will recognize four recipients during the fiscal year. The timeline for the nominations are: first quarter- July- September; second quarter- October- December; third quarter- January- March; and fourth quarter- April- June.
“We hope that staff, faculty, students, and alumni will recognize the contributions of our staff by nominating someone that has done a great job in the quarter,” Burns said.
Nomination forms will be electronically submitted to the chair of the Employee of the Quarter committee. For more information on Employee of the Quarter, visit the Staff Senate website at http://www.uca.edu/staffsenate/eoq.php.
