Employee Service Day
As an office employee at Service Sanitation, you are allowed one paid service day each year to leave the comforts of your desk and step out to help those in need. This service day allows you to contribute to a wide variety of projects that are personally meaningful to you. Whether volunteering at a local non-for-profit organization or perhaps helping someone whom you personally know is in need, the choice is yours.
Our goal is to see community involvement grow at Service Sanitation and to encourage social responsibility. We would love to see 100% participation as we continue striving to achieve this goal. If you are looking for ideas about how to contribute to the greater community or if you have any questions or suggestions about the program, please feel free to see Teri Milcarek.
