Boston – Jim Bisson Jr.’s whole hearted commitment to U.S. service members was recently given special recognition when he received the “Patriot Award” from the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR), an Office of the Secretary of Defense agency.
“The Patriot Award was created by ESGR to publicly recognize individuals who provide outstanding support for their employees who like other citizen warriors before them have answered the nation’s call to serve,” said Thomas Boyle, ESGR Massachusetts ESGR chairman.
Bisson was nominated by PEC Associate Matt Andrade for his outstanding attitude and cooperation in supporting citizen-warriors like himself. Such support is critical in maintaining the strength and readiness of the nation’s National Guard and Reserve units.
“I’m proud to be an American,” said Bisson, “and we are honored to have Matt Andrade as an employee of Professional Electrical Contractors. Our sense of responsibility and support for Matt and his family while he has been on training duty helps keep America strong while lending assurance to Matt and all PEC Associates that their contribution to the defense of the nation is fully recognized.”
On hand for the presentation and signing ceremony along with Boyle were ESGR southeast area chair and senior ombudsman Joachim-Ingo Borowski and eastern area chair John Pelose, PEC ownership, senior management and approximately 40 PEC Associates.
