State Employees "Day in the Life"
MDOT Vision and ValuesEmployee Excellence, Team Work, Integrity and Inclusion at Work
A few years ago, we identified a set of core values that we all felt were integral to creating a great workplace for State of Michigan employees-Excellence, Team Work, Integrity and Inclusion.

Today, I'm pleased to share with you snapshots of some of your peers that pay homage to their diverse roles as public servants, and demonstrate their commitment to living and practicing our shared values as they go about their jobs.

State of Michigan employees are the heart of this organization, and the key to its future. Thank you for the work that you do each and every day, all year long for the people of the state of Michigan. Your commitment to practicing Excellence, Integrity, Team Work and Inclusion is a shining example for workplaces everywhere. I truly could not do my job without your hard work and support, and sincerely appreciate your efforts. I am forever inspired by what you do.
