Milestone Service Years 5 to 25
Employees who've reached 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 years of service, must be recognized at the local level by their Management Supervisor/Director/Chair/Faculty or Division Head with the presentation of a milestone service recognition pin. This can be done at a faculty/division meeting or event.
Unit managers should connect with their faculty Executive Officers, divisional Senior Executive Officers or People Partners for assistance. They or their designates will arrange for the order and distribution of milestone service pins for your area. This coordination will help to prevent duplication of efforts and ensure consistency from year to year.
Service Milestone Pins
York University commemorative service pins are available to all departments/faculties to recognize employee service milestone years 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25. Each milestone pin is unique in that each one has a different finish that corresponds to the different service.
Service pins are available from the Office of the Vice-President and are provided at no cost to units/departments. Get yours today by completing the Milestone Service Pin Order Form. Only orders submitted using this order form will be accepted for processing. Orders submitted by phone, text, Teams or email will not be accepted.
Digital e-Certificates
There are now digital e-certificates templates (English and French) available for all service milestone years including service years 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25. These are an additional option available to help enhance service recognition (previously only 5 to 20 were available). Use of digital e-certificates is strictly optional.
