The Committee provides oversight for all County employee awards; makes recommendations to the County Commissioners to more effectively structure and operate the awards program; receives and evaluates each employee suggestion; refer suggestions to specific County departments for technical evaluation in order to establish their merit on the basis of practical application and amount of cost savings, if any, associated with such suggestions; obtains independent technical evaluations of suggestions; makes a determination of the amount of an employee award and makes the award recommendation to the County Commissioners.

The Committee has seven members made up of the County Administrator, Director of Human Resources, one professional level employee, two classified level employees appointed by the County Administrator and two citizen volunteers appointed by the County Commissioners.
