Top honours this year went to Adrian Reilly, from Dooradoyle, who is an ISS operative at the Mid-Western Regional Hospital.
“The event rewards those people who are the ‘people behind the people’ who provide services to keep corporate wheels turning all over Ireland. Adrian epitomises that and we congratulate him on his award,” said a spokesperson.
