Baskin Engineering is excited to announce we are continuing the Baskin Engineering SUPER SLUG award program designed to celebrate the excellent contributions throughout the academic year. From September 21, 2024- June 23, 2025, any Baskin Engineering academic or staff employee may acknowledge any other Baskin Engineering academic or staff employee (sorry – student employees are not eligible) for going "above and beyond." The nominee will receive a $25 gift card and certificate.
Here’s how to do it: go to the web form below on this page. You will enter the name of the nominee, your name as nominator, and a brief (3-5 sentences) justification. Maria Walker, the Staff HR Coordinator, will receive the form and process it within a week.
There are a couple of simple rules:
1. While one person may receive multiple nominations per quarter, only 1 gift card/award per person per quarter will be awarded. Multiple nominations will be acknowledged with a certificate.
Per UC BFB-G-41, there is a limit of 3 non-cash awards per calendar year and the total must not exceed $75 in order to not be taxable to the employee.
2. Supervisors may not be nominated by their staff; however, staff can use the campus wide, year 'round Thumbs Up award recognition program to nominate their supervisor:
