OCA Kudos

OCA Kudos is an email recognition sent to OCA team members when they go above and beyond their normal job duties. It’s a simple way to show some recognition for a job well done!

OCA Kudos can be sent to someone for:

  • sharing a great idea to improve work processes
  • taking the initiative to implement new ideas
  • doing something that improves efficiency or operations
  • putting in an extra effort
  • doing something to improve team morale
  • exemplifying excellent customer service internally or externally
  • doing something above and beyond their normal job duties

Email OCAKudos@txcourts.gov with the employee's name and a brief explanation telling why an OCA Kudos should be given.
Human Resources will send the Kudos to the employee, their manager, and file it in their personnel file.

Remember, "If you see it, say it!"
