In a significant gesture of appreciation, Panjab University in Chandigarh has announced plans to felicitate a group of non-teaching employees during its Republic Day celebrations. This initiative aims to formally recognise the invaluable contributions these staff members make to the university's day-to-day functioning and overall campus operations.
Comprehensive Awards for Dedicated Service
The honours bestowed upon the selected employees will be substantial and varied, reflecting the university's commitment to acknowledging their efforts. Depending on the specific category of recognition, the awards will include formal recommendation certificates, monetary cash prizes, commemorative mementos, and special appreciation certificates. This structured reward system is designed to highlight the diverse roles and achievements of the non-teaching workforce.
Wide-Ranging Departmental Recognition
Employees from a broad spectrum of university departments have been carefully selected for this felicitation. The list encompasses key administrative and support units essential for smooth operations. Specifically, staff from the public relations department, the University Institute of Fashion Technology, the general branch, and the registration and scholarship branch will be honoured.
Additionally, employees from the controller of examinations' office, the estate branch, various hostels, the Vice-Chancellor's office, and security services are included. Several other administrative and support units across the campus will also see their non-teaching members recognised, ensuring a comprehensive acknowledgment of behind-the-scenes contributions.
Further Appreciation for Additional Staff
Another distinct group of employees will receive appreciation certificates and mementos in recognition of their dedicated services. This secondary set includes staff from academic and operational departments such as chemistry, the colleges branch, and the Panjab University Regional Centre in Ludhiana.
Other departments featured in this category are SAIF/CIL, the registrar's office, Community Education and Disability Studies, the dean of student welfare office, the computer centre, and the departments of zoology and computer science. Staff from the University Press, the Main Guest House, and the University Institute of Engineering and Technology will also be acknowledged, underscoring the university's holistic approach to employee recognition.
Integral Part of Republic Day Celebrations
These awards are a core component of Panjab University's Republic Day festivities, strategically timed to align with national celebrations of service and dedication. The university's administration emphasises that this felicitation is not merely ceremonial but a sincere effort to highlight the essential, often overlooked role that non-teaching staff play in maintaining campus efficiency and supporting academic excellence.
By honouring these employees, Panjab University aims to foster a culture of appreciation and motivation, reinforcing the importance of every individual's contribution to the institution's success. This move is expected to boost morale and encourage continued dedication among the non-teaching community, setting a positive precedent for future recognitions.
