Hi,

The objective of having "Best Employee of The Year"is to select a model employee who will become a good example to employees in relation to the company business ethic.

The award should be opened to the focus group or certain category and should have completed a certain no. of years in service.You should decide.

You should also decide the review period for example 6 months or one year.

The criteria used are as follows:-

1.Quality of work, 2. Attendance, 3.Attitude, 4.Appearance, 5.Cooperation,

6.Responsibility, 7.Reliability, 8.Achievement, 9.Discipline, 10.Other -significant factors.

For each criteria a point of 10 is given. Therefore the total is 100 points.

The factors for each criteria is than given. For example Quality of work - 9~10 points means the work of the employee is constantly accurate,neat, and very thorough. Takes great care and effort to achieve excellent quality. For example for Attitude - 3~4 means- Fairly a good attitude and if it is 7~8 - employee set significant and positive attitudes towards company superior/colleague.

And, as my friend Leo will also tell you, be certain that there is absolutely no sign of the person being selected having been chosen as a political choice, or as a payback, from inside a company.
Any hint of impropriety will trigger turmoil--exactly what you're trying to avoid.
When I was picked as "Best Boss" in 1999, there were comments from a variety of my contemporaries that the voting, in some way, had been "rigged". Naw.
Unfortunately, it seems that frequently, there may be pretenders to the role who will create issues wherever possible--even with such a positive attempt.
The way to avoid this is to publish the criteria ahead of time and be absolutely certain that all rating criteria are objective--not subjective, as Leo has outlined.
