Spot Awards Time! Nominate!

April 4, 2023

Dear SHARE,

We are pleased to announce this year’s Staff Appreciation and Recognition (STAR) Award Program for staff covered by Personnel Policies for Staff Members (PPSM) and for clerical staff covered by the CX bargaining unit. The STAR Award program this year includes the SPOT Award (up to a maximum of $500): 

  • The SPOT Award (up to a maximum of $500 per award, but may be lower than $500) is designed to recognize a significant and outstanding contribution(s) on a particular effort above and beyond position duties.

  • Only individuals may be nominated for a SHARE SPOT Award. (No team SPOT Awards)

  • The contribution(s) must represent work during the award period (July 2022 through March 2023).

  • Please visit this page for the detailed award eligibility criteria. 

  • Please use this SHARE SPOT Award Nomination form to submit nomination(s) for this year’s SPOT Award Program. 

  • Nominations must be received by 5pm on Monday, May 1, 2023.

The SHARE Award Review Committee will review the nominations and make recommendations to the Regional Director and Regional Associate Dean for final approval regarding the number of awardees and the award amount. We may reduce the award amount per recipient in order to provide more individuals with an award.

The SHARE Award Review Committee includes all Supervisors and the Senior HR Partner for the region, Darnell Tircuit. Notifications to awardees will be made by the end of June, 2023. This is a wonderful opportunity to recognize a SHARE Team member for going above and beyond!

If you would like to submit a high-five (chance to win a $25 Amazon gift card), to recognize a SHARE Team member for a smaller effort that may not qualify for a SPOT Award, please visit this High-Five Nomination form. We welcome high-five nominations all throughout the year! 

Any questions about the STAR award program may be directed to Darnell Tircuit: dtircuit@berkeley.edu, Senior HR Partner.

Warm Regards,

SHARE Award Review Committee
