Agenda 11/13/2018 Item # 3D 111/13/2018
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to recognize Carlos Cabrera, Maintenance Worker, Public Services Department
as the October 2018 Employee of the Month.
OBJECTIVE: To recognize the efforts and accomplishments of an employee who has made significant
contributions to the organization or to our community.
CONSIDERATIONS: Carlos has been with Collier County since 2000 and works in the Parks and
Recreation Division.
Carlos is the senior member of the Vineyards Community Park maintenance crew and recently has taken
on additional responsibilities at the park when the Supervisor was called to oversee another project in the
park system. He stepped up to provide guidance and support to the team in the supervisor’s absence.
During this time another member of the crew went out on leave for an extended period, and Carlos took it
upon himself to go beyond his assigned duties and take on this employee’s tasks also; essentially doing
the job of two employees! Carlos is the definition of a “team player”. He is devoted to keeping the park
in top notch condition and does whatever it takes to maintain the highest standards possible. He always
offers to lend a hand, offer advice, and help his fellow team members with a kind word and a smile. It is
for these reasons he so deserving of Employee of the Month.
FISCAL IMPACT: The selected “Employee of the Month” receives a $150 cash award. Funds for this
are available in the employee's budget cost center.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There are no Growth Management Impacts associated with
this Executive Summary.
RECOMMENDATION: To approve the recognition of Carlos Cabrera as the October 2018 Employee
of the Month.
