New rewards and recognition program coming soon

UNMC soon will roll out a new rewards and recognition program, replacing the longstanding Thank U program that ended last summer.

“We’re excited to launch a new program that will better recognize, serve and connect all of our employees,” said Linda Cunningham, Division Director of Human Resources-Employee Relations, Organizational Development & Diversity. “After a thorough search for vendors, we’re pleased with the selection and the value they place on employee recognition.”

The new online program will enable employees — via a recognition portal/website — to send Thank U messages and e-cards for any occasion, as well as more easily submit Silver U and Gold U nominations.

Service award gifts will be accessible via the online site, and colleagues will be able to see and congratulate those who are celebrating a service anniversary.

Employees also will be able to post messages, upload videos and share inspiration with the entire UNMC campus.
