DG Awards - Portfolio of the Civil Service
Deputy Governor Award
The Deputy Governor’s Award Programme was launched by Deputy Governor Hon. Franz Manderson in 2012 and replaced the Governor’s Five Star Award for Customer Service Excellence (F.A.C.E. awards). The awards programme highlights the outstanding efforts of employees across the Civil Service so that they can serve as role models to their peers, perpetuating the high standards which are expected from all civil servants.
Awardees exemplify the Civil Service’s core values of passion, integrity and professionalism, have demonstrated exceptional achievement or growth in contributing to one of our Strategic Goals, have effectively worked to deliver the mission of the Department and/or Ministry/Portfolio/Office and to achieve the Government’s Broad Outcomes.
