Honors and Awards
Volunteer Service Award
3-A SSI recognizes the extraordinary dedication and commitment of individuals who contribute to the development of voluntary standards and the mission of 3-A SSI. The annual Volunteer Service Awards program was introduced in 2008 to recognize the outstanding service of these individuals.
- The Leadership Service Award is presented to an individual or group who demonstrates a record of significant contribution to 3-A SSI voluntary standards development and who has demonstrated outstanding service in enabling 3-A SSI to attain its objectives.
- The 3-A SSI Advancement Award honors outstanding accomplishments performed by any individual or group on behalf of 3-A SSI.
- The Next Generation Award honors an individual who has been engaged in 3-A SSI standards development activities for less than five years and has demonstrated leadership, dedication and significant contributions to the development of 3-A Sanitary Standards or
3-A Accepted Practices.
3-A SSI announces the nominations early each calendar year. The award recipients are announced at the 3-A SSI Annual meeting in May.
