On the occasion of the International Housekeepers Week (September 14-20), the International Executive Housekeepers Association (IEHA) awarded Hiroko Quinn, an employee of Top To Bottom (a building maintenance services company) in Lawton, OK, with the 2008 Unsung Facility Hero Award. As part of the award Quinn was felicitated with a certificate of appreciation, a $200 cash bonus, a year’s membership to IEHA, and her story would be printed in Executive Housekeeping Today.
Hiroko was awarded for her performance and also because she had, with her presence of mind averted a major fire while working in the basement of the facility.
