BCWS Receives 2008 Outstanding Business Customer of the Year Award

August 28, 2008 – Berkeley County Water and Sanitation received the Outstanding Business Customer of the Year award for Berkeley County on August 21, 2008 by the Trident Workforce One Stop Investment Board. The 18th annual awards ceremony was held at Trident Technical College’s Complex for Economic Development; and it highlighted the accomplishments of business and individuals who have helped to make the program a success.

Pam Singleton, BCWS’ Human Resources Coordinator, paved the way for BCWS to receive this year’s award. “We’re extremely proud of Pam and it’s because of her diligent efforts in working with the Berkeley County One Stop Career Center that we were one of this year’s award recipients,” says Gracie B. Horne, Human Resources Manager at BCWS.

On behalf of BCWS, Mrs. Singleton has supported the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) program throughout the year by working with the WIA staff to communicate employment vacancies and by hosting several job fairs. Her efforts led to the recruitment of another BCWS employee, Mr. David Wright. Mr. Wright was hired after successfully completing CDL Truck driving School with Palmetto Training.

Mrs. Singleton and Mr. Wright are the perfect example of how dedicated and qualified employees, who work hard to provide customers with excellent service, make an organization a valuable asset to the community.
