Christopher White, Solid Waste Environmental Specialist, Named County’s Employee of the 4th Quarter 2023

MONROE COUNTY, FL – Christopher White, Solid Waste Environmental Specialist, is named Monroe County’s Employee of the Fourth Quarter for 2023 for exceeding job expectations, noteworthy performance, and his positive impact on his co-workers and community. He started with the County in April 2022 and was recognized by the Board of County Commissioners at their meeting.

White was nominated for the recognition by two of his co-workers. Transfer Station Operator Kevin Kopp said his attitude is excellent, and he always goes out of his way to help customers during hazardous household waste collection. Another co-worker, Bob Henry, said White goes above and beyond inspecting for leaky hazardous waste containers, regularly helps out during storms to drive clam trucks to remove downed trees, and works the scale when needed. “He often gives useful tips and tricks to properly dispose of waste in the safest possible way without spilling or getting it on the ground,” said Henry.
