AWARDS SOLICITATION
A. Recognition Programs, COMDTINST 1650.26A
1. In accordance with REF (A), this message solicits nominations
for the annual USCG HRM Awards and is seeking HRM Award Panel
members.
2. This award program provides recognition for significant human
resource management accomplishments by Coast Guard personnel.
Award nominations should reflect an emphasis on exceptional
leadership in the care, service, and support of USCG personnel
through superb customer service, problem solving skills, and
innovation of processes in human resource management
that positively affected our total workforce.
3. There are five individual award categories and two team
categories for the USCG HRM Achievement Awards:
    a. Active Duty Officers (Commissioned Officer/Chief Warrant
Officer),
    b. Civilian Employees (General Schedule/Federal Wage Schedule),
    c. Nonappropriated fund (NAF) employees,
    d. Active Duty Enlisted Personnel,
    e. Reserve Personnel (Officer/Enlisted), and
    f. Teams consisting of 4 to 20 personnel, Headquarters and Pay
Personnel Center (PPC).
    g. Teams consisting of 4 to 20 personnel, from units not included
in 3.f.
4. The period of eligibility for the 2023 HRM Awards is
01 January 2023 through 31 December 2023. Commands may nominate
as many individuals or teams as desired in each category. Any
Coast Guard employee may be nominated for a USCG HRM Achievement
award for actions during the period of eligibility. It is not
necessary for the nominee to be assigned to a human resource
management position (i.e. XPO, XO, Division/Department Head,
Hiring Official, etc. are eligible). Nominations for these awards
do not preclude nominees from receiving other awards, such as a
personal award, military award, or cash/time off award for the
same action.

for USCG HRM awards are found in REF (A). Submit nominations using
Form CG-5374. The proposed citation box must not exceed 14 lines of
Times New Roman text 12point font. The second page of the
