At its 6 p.m. meeting tonight, the Middle Township Committee will honor Katherine Keating as the March 2017 Employee of the Month. Keating started her career in Middle Township in 2014 as a part-time employee working in the courts. Later in that year she transferred to the Human Resources Department.  Since 2016 she has been working in the Zoning Office.

“Katherine is a quick study capable of learning new tasks and taking over new responsibilities without missing a beat,” said Mayor Michael Clark. “Besides all her other assignments, she has taken over managing the bond and escrow accounts for the Treasurer’s Office. She has a very friendly disposition with her coworkers and the public while exceeding all expectations in her work.  Middle Township is very fortunate to have her.”

The Middle Township Employee of the Month program was initiated by the Township Committee to honor employees who exemplify the Township’s commitment to better delivery of services and going the extra mile for residents. The program culminates with the Darius Graham Employee of the Year honor that is named after one of the Township’s most beloved employees in its history.

Nominations for the Employee of the Month Program are available inside Middle Township hall at three locations: Human Resources and Training Department, Administration Department, and on the bulletin board. Residents from the Township who have had a very positive interaction with any Middle Township employee may pick up the one-page nomination form and fill it out in the employee’s behalf. Each month a Township employee will be selected; the winning nominee will receive a certificate at a future Township Committee meeting along with a photograph posted on the bulletin board.
