Staff Employee of the Month

June - Jessica Baker
Human Resources

Having worked at KSU for over 5 years, I can only think of a small group of employees that have demonstrated the service and commitment to their customers that Jessica Baker demonstrates. She works late, timely responds to phone calls and immediately acts on requests. This is one employee that ALWAYS goes above and beyond the call of duty. Her attitude toward KSU and interactions with me as a customer have always been outstandingly pleasant. Her quality customer service has created a sense of professionalism in the HR department that has surpassed expectations. It is difficult to express how her performance has impacted the university in a few words. I can say, however, as one of the first points of contact at the university, Jessica makes a favorable impression on everyone, thus increasing the value of a KSU experience! Awesome work, Jessica!

The Employee of the Month is supervised and awarded throughout the year by Staff Awards and Recognition Committee, made up of members of Staff Senate. Once a month, the nominations that have been gathered are put to a vote by the committee and the results determine the Employee of the month for that month (click here for the online submission form).

The Employee of the Month receives several awards, including a $100.00 check from the KSU Foundation, a $25.00 check from the KSU Bookstore, a framed certificate, a banner, and a parking space of their choice for the entire month.

In addition to the Staff Employee of the Month, the Staff Awards and Recognition Committee facilitates the voting for the annual general staff awards which are held annually at the Opening of School.
