Employee of the Month Pin
The design
On the pin
A round pin with a navy ring and a gold-tone rim. EMPLOYEE OF arches across the top and THE MONTH along the bottom in raised gold-tone letters, around a large gold star on a white center.
What it means
Employee of the month is one of the oldest workplace awards, and the gold star is its universal sign. A pin turns the photo on the wall into something the winner keeps, and it lets customers ask about it.
Colors and finish
Navy and gold look professional on any uniform. A version for each month, with the month on the back or in a different star color, makes the pins collectible.

More employee recognition pins
Can we have the month on each pin?
Yes. Each month can be a version, or the month can be engraved on the back so one design serves the whole year.
What back is best for staff who wear it at work?
A magnetic back, for $0.74 more, avoids holes in uniforms; a locking back stays on through a busy shift.
Can we put the employee’s name on the pin?
Yes, laser engraved on the back of each pin.
Can we make a set of award pins?
Yes. Using one shape for every award keeps the set consistent and lowers cost.
How big is a 1-inch pin?
Slightly larger than a US quarter. It is the most common lapel size for service awards. Your proof shows the pin at actual size.
