workforce, was presented to the Asian- American Hotel Owners Association (AAHOA). Founded in 1989, AAHOA is dedicated to promoting and protecting the interests of its members through programmes and initiatives in advocacy, industry leadership, professional development, and community involvement.
The Rising Star of the Year Award, which is open to women aged 35 and under who have demonstrated their commitment to further the ideals and objectives of the ISSA Hygieia Network, was awarded to Paige Horn, Chief Operating Officer from Dixie Paper Co. and Dixie Packaging, Tyler, TX.
While all categories had a record number of nominees, the Man of the Year Award category was especially popular, with Michel Landel, CEO of Sodexo from Paris, France, named as the final winner of that award for his excellent commitment and support for gender diversity and inclusion in the cleaning industry.
It was a great night for Sodexo, which was also named Employer of the Year, chosen to be the company that best promotes women’s interests and gender equality in the professional cleaning sector.
the recent move to bring back our SC Johnson-branded products from Sealed Air Diversey Care to the new SC Johnson Professional business gives us a lot of momentum to re- enter this space in a big way.”
SC Johnson operated in the I&I business starting in the 1930s and eventually spun off its professional business in the late 1990s.
“We’re bringing great innovation in our new products and attention to quality and service to the industry,” said Johnson, during this year’s ISSA/INTERCLEAN North America, held in Chicago.
The company also introduced the new innovative SC Johnson Professional line during the show.
At the ceremony, special awards were also given to the following individuals and organisations in recognition of their outstanding work in promoting the mission of IHN:
• Jeff Roberts, Waxie Sanitary Supply • Laurie Sewell, Servicon Systems, Inc. • GOJO
The judging panel for the awards included Dan Weltin, Editor-in-Chief at Trade Press Media Group; Jeff Tafel, Executive Director at IFMA Foundation; and Michelle Marshall, Editor of European Cleaning Journal and EC Television Executive Producer.
“The ISSA Hygieia Network Awards truly represent the very best work being undertaken currently in eliminating gender discrimination and encouraging diversity,” Ilham Kadri, IHN Chair and President of Sealed Air’s Diversey Care division said. “Over the next year, we will build further on the excellent work that the network is already doing with exciting additions to the programme, such as mentorship, regular webinars, and other education opportunities.”
