Employee of the Month Certificate Template

An employee of the month certificate for offices, clinics, shops, restaurants and schools. A deep teal band on the left carries a copper star badge with the month and year, and the right side holds your company name, the award title, the employee's name in script, why they won, and signature and date lines.
