The selected individuals were chosen based on six different categories; an Army and Air Force active duty service member, an Army and Air Force federal technician, and two state civilian employees, one in an administrative category and another from a non-administrative category.
Maj. Gen. Mark H. Berry, Adjutant General for the Arkansas National Guard, presented the awards to the winners at the ceremony. The employees that were selected for the award were chosen based off of their performance of duties, work ethic, safety, contributions to the Arkansas National Guard and community involvement.
The six employees that were selected as the Employee of the Year received a five day administrative leave, a plaque, and a $300.00 check from the Morale, Welfare and Recreation fund in addition to the medal which was pinned on each of them by the Adjutant General.
