Design notes

This badge shows one bright brass name plate and a star on a navy plaque board, like the plaque in a staff room. It carries the award title and the month, and it stays clear when shrunk to a small profile size. It suits teams of any size that want a warm, traditional sign of thanks.

About

Employee of the Month Badge Template

Employee of the Month is a recognition award that companies, hospitals, shops, schools and agencies give to the person whose work stood out in the last four weeks. Managers and HR teams usually issue it at a monthly meeting, and winners often add it to a profile or an email signature.

I was named employee of the month at work. It is a team award, because I had help all month from colleagues who shared their time and ideas on a busy project. Thank you to my manager for noticing and to my team for making the work enjoyable. Proud to work with you all. #EmployeeOfTheMonth #Teamwork
