WASHINGTON, D.C. (May 3, 2021) — The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service (FMCS) is pleased to join the Partnership for Public Service as one of 63 co-signatories to their proclamation of the 2021 Public Service Recognition Week (PSRW).
PSRW has been celebrated the first week of May for 36 years, with this year’s week running from May 2-8. PRSW is designated by the President and Congress to honor the people who serve our nation as federal, state, county, local and tribal government employees and recognize their accomplishments as they work tirelessly on behalf of all Americans.
Max Stier, president and CEO of the Partnership for Public Service, said, “We are honored to have FMCS sign on to the Public Service Recognition week co-chair letter. The image of public employees is strengthened when citizens see us working in cooperation with each other and with the community.”
Stier’s comments were echoed by Gary Hattal, deputy director for FMCS, “Our Agency is grateful to the Partnership for Public Service for their outstanding and unrelenting support to public servants. Our employees, and those around the country serving the public, deserve our recognition for their unwavering devotion to our Nation and its people.”
“We are proud to stand arm-in-arm with the Partnership for Public Service in celebrating PSRW,” said Hattal.
