At TransCold, we invite all team members to nominate employees who have shown exemplary contribution and dedication to their work. Winners are selected by a committee of their peers. They receive a $1,500 cash award and one week’s vacation. We normally award only one winner for each country, but this year is an exception for Canada because we have two very deserving winners.
