ROSEMONT, Ill. – The Roofing Alliance, the foundation of the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA), is accepting nominations for two of its signature awards programs: the 2019-20 Most Valuable Player (MVP) and the 2020 Gold Circle Awards.

Winners from both programs will be recognized at NRCA’s Industry Awards Ceremony and Cocktail Reception at the International Roofing Expo in Dallas on Feb. 5, 2020.

MVP Awards

The MVP Awards program celebrates workers who are outstanding employees within their companies as well as outside of the workplace, including charitable deeds, community involvement, challenges they’ve overcome, dedication and commitment to helping others.

The award categories include:

  • Outstanding On-the-Job Performance/Workmanship. Dedicated, reliable employees are vital to a company’s success and, among those employees, usually one stands out above all others. That’s the employee who has a strong work ethic; shows leadership, initiative and resourcefulness; has earned an outstanding safety record; shows support for his or her co-workers; and goes above and beyond.
  • Outstanding Performance/Other Noteworthy Contributions Outside the Workplace. Outstanding workers not only have a passion for the work they do and a sense of loyalty toward their employers, but they also show compassion for others outside the workplace. They volunteer their time with their communities, churches, families and friends. They are determined to overcome challenges and obstacles they may face personally or stand by others who need their support. They’re always willing to extend a helping hand. They display exemplary service, leadership, commitment and selfless devotion.

Through the MVP program, roofing professionals can nominate employees to formally recognize his or her outstanding contributions through on-the-job performance and workmanship or for outstanding performance and other noteworthy contributions outside the workplace. In addition, one MVP winner will be chosen to be Professional Roofing’s and OMG Roofing Products’ Best of the Best.

MVP nominations must be submitted by Nov. 15, 2019. Applications and additional information can be found at www.roofingalliance.net/programs/mvp/.
