1 Public x Private Date: June 9, 2008 HALIFAX REGIONAL SCHOOL BOARD Employee Recognition Awards Program PURPOSE: BACKGROUND: CONTENT: The purpose of this report is to inform the Board of the Employee Recognition Awards Program, commencing in the school year. Following the first full year of amalgamation in 1997, retiring employees continued to be recognized in a variety of formal and informal ways. In September 2000, the Board established one formal retirement event to recognize all employees retiring from the Halifax Regional School Board. The recognition event has evolved over the past 8 years and is generally viewed as a significant occasion for recognizing long serving employees. In September 2007, Human Resources staff was asked to carry out some research and obtain feedback from staff on how the Board could enhance its efforts to recognize employees and to make recommendations on an Employee Recognition Program. In November, 2007 with the support of research staff, a survey tool was developed and all employees given the opportunity to respond by December 31, While the response was less than 800 employees, it was determined by the researchers to be an acceptable rate for completing an analysis and making reasonable conclusions on employees views about employee recognition. Highlights of the survey results are provided in Appendix A. Based on the survey results, it was determined that focus groups would be established to center some discussion and feedback on three areas of employee recognition: 1) a Milestone Program; 2) an Achievement Awards Program; and 3) Promotion & Communication Plan for Informal Recognition. In April, 2008 two employee focus groups were established. The focus groups consisted of 23 employees representing a variety of teaching, non-teaching and management staff. They were provided with survey results and compilation of research information on employee recognition programs from other organizations. Highlights of the focus group feedback are provided in Appendix B. Based on survey results, focus group feedback and research from other organizations it is recommended that the Halifax Regional School Board establish an Employee Recognition Awards Program as outlined in the proposed draft (Appendix C) and would include the following components: (a) Retirement Recognition Event (Currently in place) (b) Milestone Awards (Effective August 1, 2008) (c) Awards of Excellence for Outstanding Contribution to Education ( Commencing school year)

With the assistance of the Policy and Research Division an electronic survey was designed and posted on the HRSB intranet in December An notice was sent to all staff on December 6, 2007 providing background information and a copy of the survey. A paper copy of the survey was also distributed to NSUPE employees at a workshop on November 26, 2007 as this employee group has limited access to technology. The survey was posted until December 31, Highlights of the survey are indicated below. Demographics A total of 792 respondents completed the survey.

Of those who assigned importance to formal recognition, years of service was the most frequently reported important basis of recognition, preferably in the form of a pin. It was reported this recognition should be for all staff teaching and non-teaching. Respondents reported that paid leave based on banked sick days and work attendance was an important form/basis of recognition. Page 2 of 2 - HR Services- Modified June 5, 2008
5 APPENDIX B Report No HIGHLIGHTS Employee Recognition Focus Group Feedback On May 1, 2008, a focus group was held with representatives of all employee groups. Two sessions were held the morning session with non-teaching employees and the afternoon session with teachers and school leaders. Each session was broken into 2 small groups for discussion and later reported back to the large group. The topics for discussion were Milestones of Service, Achievement Awards and Informal Recognition. Following are the highlights of the feedback gathered. MILESTONES: All groups felt years of service should be recognized beginning at 5 years. Majority of the groups felt recognition should be given in increments of 5 beginning in year 5. All groups supported an HRSB pin and a certificate/letter as a form of recognition. At 20 years, majority of groups felt there should be more formal recognition. All groups supported a formal dinner and choice of a gift beginning at 25 years of service. All groups felt recipients names should be posted on the Board s website and in a newsletter. ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS: Many ideas were shared. The following were the most common basis for achievement awards: Excellence (i.e. in One s Work, Going Above and Beyond, in Literacy, etc.) Teamwork (i.e. teambuilding, Mentoring team player, team award, team spirit, etc.) Volunteerism (i.e. employee, in-school, community involvement, etc.) Leadership Safety (i.e. safety improvement, safe schools, etc.) Environment All groups supported a selection committee representative of all employee groups to receive nominations submitted by peers and supervisors. IDEAS FOR SHARING INFORMAL RECOGNITION: Promote and enhance the culture of informal recognition within the Board. A toolbox of resources posted on the website was supported by all groups. The ability to review and add ideas was also suggested. It was also suggested that Principals/Supervisors promote and recognize employees through the annual performance appraisal process. Principals/Supervisors to communicate and promote the importance of informally recognizing employees (i.e. through staff meeting discussions, informal events, etc.) Human Resource Services 1 May 1, 2008
6 Halifax Regional School Board Appendix C EMPLOYEE RECOGNITION AWARDS PROGRAM INTRODUCTION All employees who work in and on behalf of our schools deserve the highest compliments for their contribution to improving the success of our students in the Halifax Regional School Board. A recent opinion survey from employees tells us that it is extremely important that they feel their work is valued and appreciated and that they can make a difference in the life and success of students. The Employee Recognition Awards Program is being established to recognize all employees in a variety of ways for their commitment, dedicated service and talents that support learning and improved student achievement. COMPONENTS Based on survey results, input from focus groups and research about other organizations, the following components form the framework for establishing an Employee Recognition Awards Program: (a) Retirement Recognition Event (b) Milestone Awards (c) Awards of Excellence for Outstanding Contribution to Education PROGRAM DESCRIPTIONS The following descriptions provide an overview of the program components and may be further developed through an Employee Recognition Advisory Committee. (a) Retirement Recognition Event The annual Retirement Event recognizes all employees retiring from the Halifax Regional School Board. The event is normally a reception and dinner where employees, colleagues and their families come together to celebrate and receive recognition and a token of appreciation for their long serving contribution to the Board. (b) Milestone Awards These awards are intended to annually recognize milestones during an employee s tenure with the Board. Commencing in year five, all employees will receive a special milestone pin and every five years thereafter until they reach 40 years of service. Along with a Letter of Recognition from the Superintendent and/or Board Chair, employees reaching 5, 10, 15 and 20 years of service will be presented with their award by their current Principal/Supervisor at a staff meeting or special school/department event. Those reaching 25, 30, 35 and 40 will be presented with their award by the Superintendent and/or Board Chair at a special event which may be a Board Meeting, a Breakfast Banquet/Luncheon or during the Annual Retirement Recognition event.

7 Halifax Regional School Board Appendix C (c) Awards of Excellence for Outstanding Contribution to Education An Advisory Committee will be selected from a pool of volunteers who have expressed an interest in advising the Superintendent on matters relating to Employee Recognition Programs. The Advisory Committee will consist of six members: the Superintendent, or designate; one representative from teaching staff (i.e. classroom teacher, specialist teacher); one representative from support staff (i.e. secretary, educational program assistant, custodian, tradesmen, library specialist, Student Support Worker, PEG member); one representative from school administrators (i.e. principal, vice principal, dept. head); one representative from board-based supervisory (i.e. coordinator, facilitator, manager, supervisor); and one representative from HR Services who would serve as the Chair. In the first year, a number of committee members will be invited to serve for a two-year term and a number for a one-year term. This ensures continuity for the Committee on a go forward basis when members will be asked to serve for two years. In the first year, the Committee will help establish specific criteria and terms of reference for the implementation of an Awards of Excellence Program. In subsequent years, the Committee will meet to examine results/feedback from any evaluation or assessment completed by HR on Program effectiveness and advise the Superintendent about changes to the program. A Selection Panel will be appointed by the Superintendent and will include the Human Resources Director, two or three members of the public who are leaders in their respective organizations, one teacher and one support staff person. This would be a voluntary appointment for a period of time that would normally not exceed two consecutive years. A Chair appointed from within the Committee will help the panel reach consensus and ensures that all members are involved in the selection process. The selection panel maintains the integrity of the selection process, evaluates all nominations and recommends who may receive the awards to the Superintendent. Recipients are chosen in three categories: Award of Excellence in Teaching, Excellent Support Staff Award, and Excellence in Leadership Award. Recipients will receive the Awards of Excellence to be announced publicly and presented at a special event. Human Resource Services/Revised June 18, 2008 Page 2 of 5

9 Halifax Regional School Board Appendix C OTHER Informal Recognition While survey results of employee opinions reported formal recognition to be important, most employees considered informal recognition from their supervisors to be more important, particularly with respect to their efforts in making a difference. As this feedback about informal recognition was a recurring theme, it was seen as important for the Board to promote activities that enhance the culture of recognition in our schools and departments. Human Resource Services will develop an Employee Recognition Toolbox of on-line resources that will be made available to Principals and Supervisors to utilize through myhrsb. The toolbox will include ideas and resources which have been gathered from Principals and Supervisors, research from other organizations, as well as helpful links to appropriate web sites filled with creative ideas and suggestions for informal recognition. Responsibility and Accountability Recognition is a shared responsibility that involves Senior Staff Leaders, Managers, Supervisors, School Principals and their Administrative Teams. An Employee Recognition Advisory Committee appointed by the Superintendent will lend support to the direction of the Employee Recognition Programs and provide advice on such things as communication, implementation, building commitment, achieving and maintaining momentum, and evaluation. Human Resource Services will oversee the administration of the program. Communication Plan Communicating the existence of a recognition program is a critical factor in its success. A communication plan will be developed to create awareness and promote an understanding of its purpose and how it supports the organizational mission of the Board. While all employees will be a target audience for a communication plan, principals, managers and supervisors need to understand their role and how they can impact on the momentum and success of the program. Management Training & Awareness Many school administrators and others who manage people are naturally aware when it comes to the elements of recognition and rewards. However, some may need to acquire skills related to recognizing employees contributions and giving effective feedback and positive reinforcement. Training needs to be provided to all levels of management on stressing the importance of the program and how it can impact on the school/department and Board. The support and commitment from those who manage people and using effective strategies for building momentum are key elements of a successful Program. Evaluation The program should be evaluated on an annual basis in order to ensure the program s goals and objectives continue to be effective. The Advisory Committee may recommend a variety of evaluation strategies (i.e. employee opinion surveys, focus groups) to determine how well the programs are known and received throughout the organization.
