Recognition (JANUS^®)

In ancient mythology, Janus, the “Keeper of Keys” and “Custodian of Treasures” protected the riches of the gods. Looking both forward and back, this ancient figure could see in all directions, preserving and protecting all that was important.

It’s from the name Janus that the modern word “janitor” is derived. And like the Janus of ancient times, today’s cleaning professionals safeguard the treasures of the buildings they maintain—treasures such as physical property, the aesthetics of a clean environment, and the health and safety of those who work at or visit the facility.

PortionPac knows tremendous effort goes into the critical work of custodians and housekeepers. But all too often, the service delivered by these professionals is under-appreciated. That’s why in 1986 PortionPac created the JANUS Recognition Program to recognize and honor excellence in janitorial performance.

In the spirit of Janus, The PortionPac JANUS Recognition Program provides you with proven methods for recognizing your custodial employees and it can even be used as a foundation to educate other employees throughout the company. By enhancing the awareness of your staff and the work they do, other employees will heighten their own sense of responsibility for maintaining a clean, safe and healthy environment.

Participation in the PortionPac JANUS Recognition Program demonstrates to all of your employees the pride your company has in its housekeepers, custodians, janitors and food service professionals. Excellence on the job should never be ignored and with PortionPac’s JANUS Recognition Program, you’ll have all the tools you need to recognize and motivate a critical unit within your organization.
