Employee Recognition
Join Us in Fostering a Culture of Recognition at Westfield State!
At Westfield State, we hold a commitment to acknowledging individuals for their exceptional performance, conduct, dedication, and contributions. Easily accessible day-to-day recognition, like words of praise, carries immense value. Informal acts of recognition manifest in diverse ways, often through simple gestures of appreciation. We work towards cultivating a community where recognition is woven seamlessly into our everyday interactions.
Annual Recognition Breakfast
Every year we hold a special breakfast ceremony that brings our entire campus community together and recognizes the hard work they do and the achievements made. We honor our colleagues that hit major milestones – 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and even 40 years of service – and acknowledge that without any one of our employees, we couldn’t achieve the results we have today.
Recipients of the milestone awards receive a framed certificate and gift. For 25 years of service, employees are awarded a Westfield State University engraved watch or Boston chair or rocker (delivered to their home or office) in recognition of this major milestone.
Emeriti Awards
In addition to milestones, we acknowledge newly chosen staff and faculty emeriti at our annual breakfast for their substantial contributions and achievements they made while at the University.
