The Faithful Service Awards Program was established by the Georgia General Assembly to help attract and retain employees by recognizing their service to the citizens of Georgia.

Through this program, approximately 13,000 state employees are recognized annually, beginning with five years of total service and every five years thereafter.

Employees completing 10, 20, 25 and 30 years of service receive a service award certificate and lapel pin, like those pictured above. Employees with 5, 15 and over 30 years of service receive an award certificate.

The Department of Administrative Services is responsible for administering the program for Georgia state government. Service award certificates and pins are distributed each month to state employees through their agencies’ human resources offices.

For more information, please contact the Faithful Service Awards coordinator in your agency’s human resources office.
