TRSA is encouraging laundry operators and suppliers to nominate candidates for several TRSA awards that the association presents annually in recognition of superlative efforts by employees and executives on behalf of their businesses and our industry.

While these nominations are open, TRSA reminds staff from member companies that they can submit the names of colleagues for these accolades. Moreover, we encourage others to second these nominations as well. Winners are invited to TRSA’s Annual Conference and honored in a presentation ceremony.

While nominations are accepted year-round, the deadline for this year’s awards is July 31. This is your chance to help decide which industry leaders will be recognized at the conference on Sept. 11 at the Wild Dunes Resort, Isle of Palms, SC. So don’t delay, clickheretoday, or on the link above, to nominate a deserving candidate for one of the six awards for outstanding achievement, safety or innovation. They’ll be grateful for your support!

TRSA Awards include:

TRSA Operator Lifetime Achievement Award

The TRSA Operator Lifetime Achievement Award is the highest honor bestowed upon an industry professional. The award recognizes exceptional personal service to both the textile services industry and TRSA. TRSA Operator members may nominate candidates for this recognition.

Maglin/Biggie TRSA Lifetime Achievement Award

Similar to the TRSA Lifetime Achievement Award for operators, candidates for this highest Associate honor will have served TRSA in ways that have improved the association and industry.  Any TRSA member (Operator or Associate) may nominate candidates for this recognition.

SafeTRSA Zero Incident Awards

The TRSA Zero Incident Safety Awards recognize individual facilities or plants with zero reportable incidents in the prior year. Data will be obtained through the SafeTRSA Survey. Nominations not required.

SafeTRSA Innovation Award

The SafeTRSA Innovation Award recognizes a company or facility that has implemented a novel approach to improving safety. A company/location may nominate itself. All nominees are encouraged to quantify their results.

TRSA Service Awards

TRSA’s Service Awards recognize employees of member companies who have worked in the industry for at least 25 years. Certificates of merit acknowledging employment anniversaries are awarded every five years through the 45th. Plaques are awarded in the 50th year. Member companies are encouraged to submit for their eligible employees.
