Lexicon recently honored 37 employees of 20 years with a $10,000, all-taxes-paid bonus check and a commemorative steel I-beam trophy for each.
The company’s 20-Year Incentive Program was started in 2002 by founder Tom Schueck.
“Recognizing our largest class of 20-year employees is an incredible moment for Lexicon,” said CEO Patrick Schueck. “These are the people who have helped build this company, passed their knowledge on to the next generation and stood by us through both challenges and successes. My dad started this tradition because he believed loyalty and hard work deserved to be recognized in a meaningful way. I’m proud to continue that commitment and celebrate the employee-owners who make Lexicon what it is today.”
The company also celebrated three employees marking 35 years of service: Mike Colvin, director of technical services at Prospect Steel; Robert Johnson, vice president of pre-construction and project management for Lexicon Industrial Constructors; and John Metzger, vice president of Industrial Maintenance, according to a press release.
Lexicon also presented its annual “Good Catch” awards, recognizing employees who identify and report potential safety hazards before they become incidents. This year’s recipients were Andrew Hampton of Lexicon Industrial Maintenance, and Jake Hasley and Todd Turley of Lexicon Fabrication Group. Each received a $2,500 award.
