  Rewards and Recognition
 
The Marks Supply Inc. culture is based on two key principles: Process Improvement and Employee Recognition.

Process Improvement
We want to hear our employee’s ideas about how we can improve the way we do business. That is why we encourage our employees to give us their ideas. The Process Improvement Team regularly meets with Robin to review ideas regarding our most important processes and to determine which ideas are going to be implemented. Our employees play an enormous role in the direction our company moves. Their implemented ideas are given CASH awards at our annual picnic. At our most recent Process Improvement Picnic over $6000 was handed out! It's a great way for employees to earn extra cash and help our company improve.

Employee Recognition
We encourage employees to recognize each other for going "above and beyond" their normal duties and responsibilities. After all, if we are going to continue "Supplying the Best", we need to do the unexpected for our customers.

Each month one employee from each of our branches earns the title of Employee of the Month based on the number of recognitions they receive from around the company. Then, prior to the annual company picnic one finalist from each branch is nominated to compete for the coveted Employee of the Year Award. A panel of judges scrutinizes each nominees standing in a variety of areas including Process Improvement ideas submitted and implemented, number of Employee of the Month wins, attendance, participation in our Learn and Earn opportunities. (We wanted to have a swimsuit competition but our HR Manager suggested this might be outside our guidelines of appropriate workplace fun.) We even have each nominee's branch manager make a speech to the judges explaining why they feel their team member should win the Employee of the Year award.

Annual Picnic
Each September, we invite all employees and their families to share a day of recognition for the outstanding contributions of our staff. The past few years, we have sponsored a day at Sportsworld, with an awards luncheon and full access to the park. We also hold a ceremony and along with some amusing "Most Likely to.." awards. We hand out envelopes stuffed with cash to people who have had one of their improvement ideas implemented. The final presentation is for the Employee of the Year, and all nominees are quite nervous by the time the 'big moment' arrives.

It's great for various people around the company to receive recognition in front of their families and their peers. Pictures of the day are taken with a digital camera and everyone gets a big laugh when they log onto our Employee Web Page to view the event.

Learn and Earn
Currently we have over 30 various educational tools for our team members to access. Each of these earn an employee a CASH or PRIZE reward when they are completed. Yes, that's right, we PAY our employees for developing their knowledge, skills, and habits.
