Officer Jamie Howell, <strong>Security</strong> Officer of the Year<br />
Officer Howell has worked for <strong>Weiser</strong> <strong>Security</strong> for over six years.<br />
During that time she has received three Client Commendations<br />
and four Employee of the Month awards.<br />
In January our client opened a second facility and Officer Howell<br />
was assigned to supervise both sites. In February she and her<br />
team updated the vehicle identification system for 1900 employees.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y completed the task within three weeks. In March<br />
she was approached by the client to explain parking and facility<br />
access policies during the weekly New Employee Orientation<br />
program. In April, the client’s HR department handed over responsibility<br />
for the company’s disabled employee parking project<br />
to <strong>Security</strong>. In June <strong>Security</strong> took over distributing employee<br />
ID badges. In October the client hosted a family fun day event<br />
attended by over 4000 people and included open access to the site. Visitors at the event turned to officers posted<br />
throughout the facility for information about activities and directions.<br />
Officer Howell leads her team by example. Keeping the <strong>Weiser</strong> Promise, her dependability and reliability are emulated<br />
by her team members. We are proud to call her Officer of the Year.<br />
Norma Alvarado, Regional Officer of the Year, Florida<br />
Officer Alvarado was honored at the 2012 ASIS Awards for <strong>Security</strong> Officers of<br />
Palm Beach County, FL.<br />
She was standing at her post, checking ID’s at the pool entrance of a residential<br />
community and noticed a man motionless in the deep end of the pool. She realized<br />
he was in distress and pushed the emergency alert button to notify 911 and her<br />
supervisor. She moved the resident into the shallow end of the pool using the pool<br />
hook, entered the pool and kept his head above water until her supervisor arrived<br />
to assist her in pulling him out of the pool. <strong>The</strong> resident was not breathing, so she<br />
turned him on his side to expel water from his lungs and he began to breathe. She<br />
comforted the resident’s wife and surrounding patrons. Emergency personnel arrived<br />
to take over and the resident was later diagnosed with having a stroke.<br />
For her heroic efforts Officer Alvarado was awarded the Lifesaving Award and the<br />
“All Around Top Honor” of Outstanding Achievement by ASIS. Congratulations<br />
Officer Alvarado!<br />
<strong>Weiser</strong> <strong>Security</strong> is now on Facebook, Twitter and Linked in.<br />
Every month each of the 23<br />
branches choose an Officer of the<br />
Month. Of those officers, each<br />
branch then chooses one Officer of<br />
the Year that best represented their<br />
branch for the year. <strong>The</strong> Regional<br />
Officer of the Year is then chosen<br />
from the Branch Officer of the<br />
Year winners. Support Center Executive<br />
Team then selects one of<br />
the four Regional Officers of the<br />
Year as Officer of the Year. <strong>The</strong><br />
Officer of the Year attends the year<br />
end celebration in New Orleans to<br />
receive his/her award. All officers<br />
that are employed more than six<br />
months are eligible to be nominated.
Crystal Martin, Regional Officer of the Year, Central<br />
Officer Martin is always willing to learn anything and take on any task no matter how big or small. Our<br />
client purchased a new scanning system to scan cards for facility entry. She was asked to oversee training for<br />
officers and created books to explain in detail how to use the system. She never asked any officers to come<br />
in on their day off to train, she went to them on their shift and gave them each one on one training. She made<br />
herself available 24/7 by phone for questions or problems and if she couldn’t help by phone, she went to the<br />
site, no matter the time.<br />
Officer Martin is a true asset to <strong>Weiser</strong> <strong>Security</strong>.<br />
