Nomination Guidelines

All Physical Facilities employees (benefits-eligible) in good standing are eligible to receive one recognition award once per year (rolling 12 months). A maximum of four individual awards may be given during a four-month timeframe, or three individual awards may be given along with one team award of up to five employees. All awards will be selected by a committee of six staff representing all levels and functional areas within Physical Facilities.

All Physical Facilities employees (with the exception of the selection committee) are eligible to make nominations and receive awards.

Nominations may also be submitted by persons outside Physical Facilities including Purdue faculty, staff, and students.

A nomination will be made by completing a nomination form and mailing it to Human Resources. Forms may also be submitted electronically to pfhr@purdue.edu.

The fields that are required to be completed are the name of the nominee, job title, where employed, date, category for recognition and written recommendation. The nominator needs to provide supporting documentation to assist in the evaluation. We would also ask that you include your name as the nominator to make it easier to follow up for any questions or further information that is required. However, we do not require you to do so for a nominee to be considered, should you feel not inclined to do so.

Each nomination will be given the same consideration regardless of the number of nominator's signatures or supporting signatures.

Nominations that are not selected for recognition are not eligible for resubmission at a later date.

It is the nominator's decision as whether or not to notify the nominee.

Nomination forms are available at Human Resources. In addition, an online version of the form is available here (PDF or Word).
