Commissioners

CHAMBERSBURG, Pa. (May 2, 2025) – The Franklin County Commissioners proudly presented the April Employee of the Month award to Amelia Miller during the board’s April 30 public meeting. Miller has been employed by Franklin County since August 2023 and serves as a custodial worker with the county’s property management department.
April’s Employee of the Month recipient was determined by the Special Thanks and Recognition (STAR) Committee, which received seven nominations for the April award, three of which were for Miller.
“A custodian can be a thankless job, but their hard work and dedication should be acknowledged,” said one individual. “Amelia is always happy and checking in with departments regarding their needs. The custodial department always seems to be short staffed. Amelia volunteered to look after the administration building as well as the archives building, mostly by herself, so that extra staff could be in other, larger buildings. During the day, you will see her in the hallways cleaning the floors, dusting or cleaning the windows, in meeting rooms vacuuming or wiping down tables, all of which can be taken for granted. She is always working hard to keep the building clean and in order, doing whatever she can in the early morning so that it’s ready when other staff and the public come in, always with a smile on her face.”
The nomination continued, “This morning there was an email about some leftover pizza from a meeting the night before being in the fridge and available for the taking. Amelia came to see where the meeting was so that she could be sure the room was clean. To me, that is a simple act of taking pride in her role and shows great dedication. She should be recognized for her caring commitment and for the positive, happy attitude that she has while doing it.”
“Amelia is a dedicated and reliable custodian who consistently performs her duties with excellence,” said one coworker. “She takes pride in maintaining a clean, organized and safe environment for all. Amelia is proactive in identifying areas that need attention and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that all tasks are completed efficiently and thoroughly. Her attention to detail and strong work ethic are evident in the consistently high standards she upholds. She is punctual, dependable and always ready to assist with any additional responsibilities or special requests. Amelia is an asset to the team, demonstrating a strong commitment to cleanliness, safety and service.”
Another nomination said, “Amelia is our custodian and always does a thorough and detailed job of cleaning our office space and restocking our supplies. I wanted to nominate her this month because she has been the only custodian for the administration annex and archives recently and her dedication to her job is outstanding. No matter how busy she may be, she always has time to share a smile or a short conversation that shows she cares for the people she works with. It is always a treat to run into Amelia and I cannot show enough gratitude for her hard work.”
Miller’s outstanding characteristics are attributes that have not gone unnoticed by her peers. She is described as happy, positive, hardworking, committed, kind, dependable, engaged, dedicated and reliable.
The Franklin County Commissioners congratulated Miller on her recognition and thanked her for her excellent work and for exuding such a high standard of knowledge, leadership and excellence to the employees and residents of Franklin County.
