Team Member Referral Incentive Program

Now automated in Workday! When an applicant completes an employment application, they complete a field to insert the 'name' of the team member that referred them to the City. If Team Largo hires the applicant, Workday automatically generates a $200 payment to the employee who referred them!

Eligibility
Team Members not able to receive the incentive:

• Human Resources Department employees
• Department Directors and Senior Management
• Supervisors or employees for positions that are under their direct management responsibility, or in which they participate in the interviewing, evaluation, or selection of the candidate

The program excludes any candidate referred through an outside agency, or who has been a previous team member of the City of Largo. The new team member referral may not be a spouse or dependent of an employee.

Procedure
The amount of the referral incentive is $200 upon initial hire:

• To qualify for a Referral Incentive, the referring team member's legal name must appear on the employment application under the question that asks 'How did you learn about the position?'
• Only one referring employee is eligible for the incentive per application; multiple names cannot be listed.
• Upon successful hire of the candidate, Workday automatically generates a $200 payment to the employee who referred them.

Payment of Awards

• Both the recipient and the new team member must be active employees at the time the award is paid.
• The Team Member Referral Incentive will be paid when the new team member is hired.
• Recruiting awards are considered taxable and are subject to applicable federal, state, and local taxes.
