Servicon, the leading hospital environmental services (EVS) provider and commercial cleaning services company based in Southern California, has announced the inaugural winners of the company’s Richard Mahdesian Award. The 2022 winners are:
- Jessica Lorenzo, Servicon government account lead
- Israel Estevez, Servicon aerospace portfolio manager for accounts outside of California.
Each winner was presented with a $1,500 gift card and a certificate signed by Servicon CEO and President Laurie Sewell during a ceremony at Servicon’s Culver City corporate headquarters. The employees’ names will be added to a trophy displayed at Servicon’s headquarters.
The award is named after Servicon’s founder, who exemplified these qualities and appreciated them in others.
“Richard [Mahdesian] was an exceptionally caring man who valued hard work and diligence,” says Sewell. “He went out of his way to help his employees, wanting to see them thrive, to be able to buy their first homes and send their children to school. He also cared deeply about helping those in the community. Countless people were recipients of his kindness. This award is one way we can honor him and carry on his legacy of caring.”
