INDIANA – Governor Eric J. Holcomb announced today his administration will reintroduce the Governor’s Public Service Achievement Awards, the highest recognition for exceptional public service among State of Indiana employees and teams.
“Indiana state employees serve as our number one resource, assisting citizens all across our great state,” Gov. Holcomb said. “It’s important to acknowledge their meaningful ongoing contributions, which in turn inspires others to hear the call and strive for excellence in service to others. I always look forward to the opportunity to show just how proud I really am of these exceptional public servants.”
The Governor’s Public Service Achievement Awards were first established in 2005 by Governor Mitch Daniels. The prestigious awards celebrate the dedication and innovation of State of Indiana employees and teams who have made a significant and positive impact on their agency’s finances, operations, or the communities they serve.
Governor Holcomb will publicly acknowledge awardees for their outstanding contributions in a special ceremony. In addition, individual awardees will receive a bonus in recognition of their exceptional achievements.
Awards may recognize individual or team achievements. Individuals will be eligible for up to a $1,000 bonus.
Agency Heads or designated representatives are encouraged to submit nominations by August 1, 2023. Nominees must have commenced full-time employment before January 1, 2023, and still be employed by the state at the time the award is announced to be eligible. Strong consideration will be given to nominations that include quantitative data showcasing measurable, positive outcomes.
