Recognize an Outstanding Kendall County Sheriff's Office Employee

Citizens may also be recognized under this program for an act that deserves recognition.

Is there someone in the Kendall County Sheriff’s Office that just hasn’t received the recognition they deserve? Well, that’s about to change.

The Kendall County Sheriff Office has announced its Employee Recognition Program. The KCSO’s new program is focused on recognizing employees for the great acts they perform. There is also a new commendation and awards policy and an online citizen submission form for recognizing employees of our office. This new program will help identify those employees or citizens that deserve special recognition whenever his/her duties are performed in an exemplary manner. Citizens may also be recognized under this program for an act that deserves recognition.

Recognition may be given for heroism, valor, life saving and other acts performed in such a manner that recognition is just. Those who have displayed behavior fitting an office award should be nominated for said award. In the event the act does not rise to the level of a formal award, outstanding work may be recognized by a Certificate of Commendation from an employee’s supervisor.

“We believe employee recognition increases employee motivation and well being in the work place. We need your help to reach our goal of recognizing employees and increasing our service delivery,” Sheriff Dwight A. Baird said.

Any employee or citizen may nominate an employee or citizen to receive an award or commendation. If you witnessed or know of an act that deserves recognition, please take the time to let the office know by submitting an online submission form on the KCSO web page at www.co.kendall.il.us/sheriff. You may stop at the KCSO and complete an Award Nomination Form and submit it to a supervisor. With your help, the sheriff's office can recognize those employees or citizens that have performed their duties in an impeccable manner.
