Rush service and retirement awards
Recognition deadlines are usually small and personal: a last day at work, a Friday staff meeting, the first morning of a new hire. Service Year Awards offers rush production for those moments. Tell us the handover date and the address, and the quote plans making and transit together.

How fast can an employee recognition award be made?
Production at Service Year Awards runs to no more than 7 days, and you can ask for rush production when a farewell or staff meeting is near. Shipping time is extra and varies by address. Include the award, the wording, the destination and the date it is needed, and the quote gives the production start.
What if this month's winner is picked at the last minute?
A call center names its Employee of the Month at a floor meeting on the first Monday. The committee often votes only just beforehand. The site manager stops fighting that habit and changes the order instead. The program title, the company name and the layout of the Employee of the Month Acrylic Award are approved once, at the start of the year. Each month, only three things are sent: the winner's name, the month and year, and a short contribution line such as For helping the team deliver. The proof for that single piece comes back for one person to approve. When a long-serving agent announces her retirement, a Retirement Appreciation Plaque joins the request as its own line.

Employee of the Month Acrylic Award
Include the month and year so the award remains meaningful after the next recipient is announced. If the recognition is for a particular action, add a short contribution line instead of filling the remaining space with generic praise.
The details to personalize: employee, program, month, contribution. The product page lets you enter them and carry the design into your quote request.
How do you prepare for a short-notice award?
01
Approve the fixed parts early
Settle the program title, logo and layout before any deadline exists. With those on file, a late request needs only a name, a date line and a contribution.
02
Give the real handover date
Tell us when and where the award will be handed over, and who receives the parcel. A farewell on a last working day leaves no second chance, so say so plainly.
03
Keep one fast approver
Name one person who can approve the proof without a meeting. For a retirement, agree the message and who it is from before you write to us.

Questions about rush service and retirement awards
How fast can an employee recognition award be made?
Production at Service Year Awards runs to no more than 7 days, and you can ask for rush production when a farewell or staff meeting is near. Shipping time is extra and varies by address. Include the award, the wording, the destination and the date it is needed, and the quote gives the production start.
Can a retirement plaque be ready for someone's last day?
Ask as soon as the date is known. Production takes no more than 7 days and transit comes on top, so the answer depends on your address and how much notice there is. Send the retiree's name, service years, message and the last working day, and the quote states what is possible.
Is there an extra charge for rushing a staff award?
There can be. Any rush charge appears as a line in your written quote from Service Year Awards before you agree to anything. Simple pieces on an already approved layout need the least preparation, so a repeat Employee of the Month order is easier to speed up than a new design.
What can we do if the award cannot reach us before the farewell?
Present something on the day and the award afterward. Some teams print the proof and frame it for the gathering, then send the finished plaque to the retiree's home. Say which you prefer when you ask for the quote, since a home address changes the destination on that row.
