Since the pandemic, frontline workers in essential industries have been challenged to serve their community and keep others safe. Frontline workers, which includes anyone deemed essential in manufacturing, retail, healthcare, transportation and more, continue to selflessly work within the public to support the economy and those in the community.
“In times like these, it is reassuring to see our own employees stepping up to meet new challenges and take care of each other,” said Shawn Richard, vice president of human resources at Palmer-Donavin. “From continuing to make deliveries to new safety measures in our facilities, we know firsthand the courage it takes as well as the challenges frontline workers face each day. I’m proud to be part of such a great team.”
To praise the heroes in local communities, Palmer-Donavin launched a contest this month, asking participants to nominate a frontline worker who has been bravely fighting through the pandemic.
Nominations will be reviewed, and the winner will receive a new custom front door for their home. Everyone is welcome to nominate as many frontline workers as they would like, including themselves. The form is available on the website, where all are welcome to share the profession and story of the person they are nominating. The contest will close on April 30, and the winner will be announced by email and on social media on May 4.
“Being able to offer a new front door to someone in one of our local communities is very rewarding,” said Josh Thompson, vice president of marketing at Palmer-Donavin. “We are enthusiastic by the number of entries within the first 24 hours and are humbled by the opportunity to give a new custom entryway to someone who has been selflessly giving through this tough time.”
