The Roofing Alliance, the philanthropic arm of the National Roofing Contractors Association, announced a call to all roofing industry professionals, asking for nominations to be submitted for its 2024-25 Most Valuable Player Awards. 

The MVP Awards Program recognizes workers committed to excellence on and off the roof while applauding workers who make outstanding contributions to their companies, co-workers, and communities

In a September 11 news release, the Roofing Alliance said MVPs are role models who demonstrate work-related and personal goals to which others in the roofing industry aspire. The award categories include:

Outstanding Performance and Leadership

Dedicated, reliable employees are vital to a company’s success; among those employees, one usually stands out above all others. That’s the employee who 

  1. Has a strong work ethic; 
  2. Shows leadership, initiative and resourcefulness; 
  3. Has earned an outstanding safety record; 
  4. Shows support for his or her co-workers; and 
  5. Goes above and beyond specific job responsibilities.  

Outstanding Community Involvement 

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 are always willing to lend a helping hand. They display exemplary service, leadership, commitment, and selfless devotion.

Roofing professionals are encouraged to nominate employees for an MVP award to recognize their outstanding contributions through on-the-job performance and workmanship and for their outstanding performance and other noteworthy contributions outside the workplace.  

In addition, one MVP winner will be chosen to be the Best of the Best, sponsored by Professional Roofing magazine and OMG Roofing Products. The person selected as the Best of the Best typically stands out in both categories. 

MVP winners and their nominators will be notified in early November so winners can plan to attend NRCA’s 138th Annual Convention, February 19-21, 2025, in San Antonio, Texas.  The deadline for nominations is September 27, 2024.
