Each year, Cleveland Electric Company recognizes employees who exemplify excellence, leadership, and dedication through two of our most prestigious awards.
The RAS Award—named in honor of our founder, Mr. Ras Cleveland—stands for Recognition of Achievement and Service. Each year, one office employee and one field employee are selected for their outstanding commitment and contributions to Cleveland Electric.
The Doug Riney Award of Excellence was created to honor the legacy of one of Cleveland's all-time great Superintendents, Doug Riney. Presented annually to one of Cleveland's field leaders, this award recognizes exceptional leadership, dedication, and excellence in the field.
Pictured from left to right are Brandon English (RAS Award Winner – Field), Andra Bullock (RAS Award Winner – Office), and Andrew Ward (Doug Riney Award of Excellence Winner).
Receiving either of these awards is an incredible honor. Please join us in congratulating Brandon, Andra, and Andrew on this well-deserved recognition. For their hard work, leadership, and commitment to Cleveland Electric Company. We are grateful for everything they do to help make Cleveland Electric a great place to work and serve our customers.
