The first Friday of every March is National Employee Appreciation Day. There are so many ways to celebrate this special day in your company. Most are inexpensive, simple, and not necessarily limited to a single day of the year. Some heartfelt, authentic recommendations we’ve seen are:
- Celebrate small wins
- Reward a job well done
- Share treats to celebrate the end of the month or the quarter
- Treat the team to lunch or host a potluck
- Celebrate hiring anniversaries
- Thank them often
- Praise them publicly
- Nominate them for industry and service awards
Particularly if you employ safety professionals and first responders like police officers or firefighters, this holiday should be just one of many days of recognition and thanks. Take the opportunity to involve the community – for example, invite the citizens they protect to create cards or bake cookies. Join a movement like the nonprofit, grassroots organization Thank You First Responder that is dedicated to celebrating and publicly thanking those who put their lives on the line to “protect and enhance our country and way of life.”
At Security Solutions of America, we’re always on the lookout for people who go above and beyond. Our clients are generous with their praise when one of our people has done a particularly great job. Whenever we hear one of these stories, such as a grocery store guard who quickly and confidently administered help when a shopper slipped and was injured, we are honored to say that they embody I am Security Solutions of America.
Announcing the I am Security Solutions of America Initiative Launch
Every day is Employee Appreciation Day for Security Solutions of America. On this special day, we are pleased to announce the formal roll-out of our I am Security Solutions of America initiative. Throughout the year, we will feature exceptional team members who have been nominated by their managers for going above and beyond the call of duty to serve the client and the community.

We’re committed to making sure our people feel informed, engaged, supported, and valued. It’s no surprise that we’re a company known for outstanding service, relationships, and respect. From our on-site and virtual guards to the administrative team and beyond, every single person on this team plays a major role in securing clients, communities, and one another.
