Committee considers magnet boards, wooden coins and other recognition ideas for employees
Summary
Members reviewed multiple recognition proposals — accelerated vacation accrual, 'Appreciation Alley' magnet board, wooden coins for Forestry, staff apparel options, quarterly parking spots, and publishing Employee of the Quarter on SharePoint and the county website.
The committee discussed several options to recognize employees, including accelerated vacation accrual and a locked-case magnet board called 'Appreciation Alley' in the skywalk to display names and years of service. Forestry proposed wooden coins as a new token; the committee also discussed a reserved parking spot for quarterly honorees, customizable items through Shirts Unlimited, and tiered recognition at 5- and 10-year anniversaries.
The committee noted plans to publish the Employee of the Quarter on SharePoint and on the Douglas County website. Ideas were considered exploratory and committee members left the proposals open to suggestions rather than committing to a single program at this meeting.
