Pearl Companies Announces 2008 Employee Award Winners
Monday, February 09, 2009 at 2:55:22 PM



Pearl Companies recently presented several awards honoring outstanding Pearl associates and their work in 2008. Pearl congratulates the winners of its 2008 employee awards and recognizes their hard work in exemplifying the core values of the company and continuing its tradition of excellence. Distinctions were given to the following Pearl Companies employees:
  • The 2008 recipient of Pearl Companies' highest honor, the Jim Jenkel Memorial Service Award, is Darrel Hedman, Systems Engineer. Pearl's annual Jim Jenkel Memorial Service Award honors a valued employee's extraordinary dedication, effort, loyalty, and commitment to provide the highest quality of customer service. It was established in 1993 in memory of Jim Jenkel—a valued Pearl employee who died unexpectedly the night of our Christmas party in December of 1992. Hedman, who fills a very significant position in the Pearl IT Infrastructure Team, is recognized for his key role in maintaining Pearl's business continuum by meeting the IT needs—24 hours a day, seven days a week—of the entire company, eliminating downtime through his determination to see technology problems through. A dedicated Pearl associate for several years, Hedman's experience and positive attitude in approaching IT tasks large and small, at all hours, make him a logical choice for the prestigious Jim Jenkel Memorial Service Award.
  • Pearl Companies' 2008 Customer Service Award winner, Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance Specialist, Stephanie Bates, has shown extreme dedication in her 14 years of professional efforts with Pearl's Real Estate E&O department and through her noteworthy contributions to elevating the company's service standards.
Pearl Companies is a privately held, multifaceted organization located in Peoria Heights, IL, that includes Pearl Insurance, Pearl Technology, Pearl Benefits, Pearl Automotive, Pearl Carroll & Associates LLC, and W.B. Griffin & Son. The Pearl Companies' commitment to working hard, working smart, and working together has not only placed them in the enviable position they are today, but has also secured them a strong presence in the marketplace for years to come.
