  • Employee Recognition Program Relaunch

    As we emerge from the pandemic, it’s important to reflect upon and chronicle milestones from the last two years. To that effect, Human Resources will relaunch the Employee Recognition program, which was paused in 2020 as we addressed the urgent health and safety matters impacting our workforce.  It is time to revisit and relaunch this important and vital program.

    Through the pandemic and beyond, we have tremendous collective appreciation for our dedicated workforce. In addition to celebrating employees’ years of service, we want to take this opportunity to extend sincere gratitude dedication for keeping the University of Connecticut operational while displaying vigilance in keeping our campuses healthy and safe.  While all employees may not have reached a milestone in service, we want all employees to know that their service and dedication, no matter the length, is greatly appreciated. 

    We will be recognizing employees who reached milestone years in 2020, 2021, and 2022.  The University identifies eligible employees when they reach a milestone year by February 1st of the previous year. 

    This year, in addition to a certificate, employees who have reached 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50+ years of service will receive an email link to a site with a selection of gifts memorializing their achievement.  Certificates and gifts will be made available this fall for pick up from Human Resources on the Depot Campus by each department who can distribute them.
