Public Service Recognition Week
Governor Bob Ferguson proclaimed May 4-10 Public Service Recognition Week (PSRW) in 2025 to honor those who serve our state as federal, state, county, and local government employees. OFM State Human Resources coordinated the Washington state annual celebration and employee awards, to ensure state employees are recognized and honored for their great work and service to the public.
