DC 37 recognizes staff contributions

In a room decked out as a sparkling winter wonderland on Dec. 11, DC 37 Human Resources Director Amy Kadlub got the union’s annual employee recognition program off to a good start: “Many of you have forged special bonds and so many of you have gone the extra mile,” she said.

Speaking of the 2008 honorees, DC 37 Executive Director Lillian Roberts said they are “the people who really make this great organization work and we truly appreciate them.”

The long and dedicated service of employees who reached 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40 years of service in 2008 was recognized, and for the first time the program included a special tip of the hat to new employees.

Additionally, employees were honored for academic achievement as well as perfect attendance for the year.

Sam Miller from the DC 37 print shop and Sarah Williams-Harrigan from the DC 37 Education Fund, who began teaching at the union in 1968, marked a rare 40 years of service to the union.

This year, the union will hold its 25th employee recognition ceremony.
