How to Honor Essential Workers with Appreciation Awards

March marks one year since most of the United States started to feel the effects of COVID-19. With the pandemic anniversary approaching, now is a great time to honor the essential workers who have kept our society functioning through it all.  Appreciation awards are an excellent way to truly show essential workers how much their efforts mean to you. Below we have provided a few award types and ideal candidates for each award. 

 

1. Medals 

Medals are known for being awarded to athletes who have shown endurance and pushed themselves to the limit to achieve excellence in their sport. Much like the endurance and dedication it takes to be a health care professional or first responder in such a difficult time. Medals are the perfect way to show health care professionals and first responders what a hero they are for fighting such a difficult fight. Medals can also be customized to display the healthcare field and the colors of their specific workplace. 

 

2. Crystal Awards 

With all their beauty, crystal awards are ideal to be proudly displayed in an office or at a desk, making them excellent for teachers, social workers, mental healthcare professionals, and emergency communications workers. Crystal awards come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and even colors. The beautiful awards can also be customized to include engraving with names, logos, and so much more to truly make the award personal. 

 

3. Acrylic Awards 

Custom acrylic awards are durable and lightweight. Acrylic awards can be fun and lighthearted or beautiful and elegant. Acrylic awards can also come in custom cutouts shapes such as logos or other representations of the company or brand. These awards are perfect for plumbers, electricians, mechanics, or HVAC professionals since they are durable and provide a lighthearted design. 

 

4. Plaques 

Plaques are perfect for essential workers who work in large teams in order to get the job done, so this would include warehouse workers, grocery store workers, postal service workers, and customer service staff. Plaques can be displayed on a store entrance for the whole team to enjoy at any time. The awards can also be customized and include everyone on the team’s name. 

 

Some other ways to celebrate essential workers beyond appreciation awards include banners and customs gifts. Overall, no matter how you celebrate the hard work and dedication the essential workers have, showing them your appreciation is what matters most.
