Eaton Recognizes Employees for Outstanding Community Service with 2015 Stover Award
CLEVELAND… Power management company Eaton has named seven employees as recipients of its 2015 Stover Award, in recognition of the extraordinary accomplishments of Eaton employees who volunteer in their communities.
“This year’s Stover winners embody Eaton’s commitment to sustainable growth, not only though their work on behalf of their local communities, but also their equally compelling desire to help those in impoverished regions.” said Barry Doggett, senior vice president, Public and Community Affairs. “Each of these individuals demonstrates a willingness to impact the health and safety of their communities and should serve as an inspiration to all of us.”
Named after James R. Stover, Eaton’s chairman and CEO from 1986 to 1991, who was known for his leadership and service to the community, the Stover Award has been given to more than 149 employees since 1993. Any employee who volunteers for a health, human services, education, arts, cultural or civic organization for at least one year can be nominated. Selection criteria include the nominee’s leadership or demonstrated dedication to an organization and the impact of the employee's involvement in changing and improving the organization and the community.
Honorees received special recognition by Eaton's chairman and chief executive officer at a formal ceremony earlier this month and were awarded a check for $2,500 payable to the nonprofit organization of their choice.
