Muhlenberg Job Corps recognizes employee's cost-savings efforts

Dwight Payton, property specialist at Muhlenberg Job Corps, was recently named Employee of the Month in recognition of his efforts to obtain needed cardio equipment for the Recreation Department at little cost to the center.

Payton, who has worked at the center since 1991, searched the government’s excess property website for the needed equipment, and was able to obtain more than $42,000 worth of equipment, including treadmills, stair steppers, elliptical machines, stationary bikes and weight benches, at no cost to the center except for transportation to the center.

During December 2013, Dwight was also instrumental in the collection of over 7,000 pounds of recyclable materials on center. He contacted local vendors for the proper removal of larger containers and ensured funds from the materials were added to the Student Government Association Green Fund for future green projects on center.
