Holliston, MA – Director of operations, Gerry Richards and corporate human resources manager, Donna David recently accepted the Patriotic Employer Award on behalf of Griffin Electric, for the company’s exceptional support of National Guard and Reserve Force employees by the National Committee for Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR). Ombudsman Rick Bedell of the ESGR was on-hand to present the award.
U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Lance Corporal Michael Black nominated the company, stating that they hired him knowing he was in the Marine Corps Reserve and was going to deploy to Afghanistan. Without hesitation, Griffin Electric granted him time off for military training and vacation prior to his deployment. “They are a good caring company for all service members,” he said. In addition to Black, two other Griffin Electric employees are currently serving on active duty, and a third recently returned from leave.
Headquartered in Holliston, Griffin Electric has offices in Duluth, GA; Raleigh, NC; Charlotte, NC, and Pelham, AL. The company, with its over 1200 employees, serves clients throughout New England and the Southeast in markets ranging from commercial, educational and municipal to medical, industrial and high-tech
