Purpose
Purpose
This program is our way of celebrating and thanking our dedicated merit system employees for their years of service to the public. We are proud to recognize your commitment as you reach significant service milestones with NKY Health.
How it Works
How it Works
To show our appreciation, you'll receive a gift card as you reach each five-year milestone of service. Your eligibility is based on your seniority date, which is typically the same as your hire date (except for rehires).
You can choose either a Kroger or Amazon gift card to celebrate your achievement, or a combination of both!
A few important details:
Award values are limited by spending and funding restrictions.
Please keep in mind that the value of the gift card is considered income and will be included in your next paycheck in accordance with IRS guidelines.
We cannot award gifts for milestones that have already passed.
If your service pin is lost or broken, we are happy to provide a replacement. We have a limited supply of extra pins on hand, so we ask that you only request a replacement when you truly need one.
