May Day Civic Awards: Plaques for Industry-Sector Recognition 🛠️

Thai May Day ceremonies recognize outstanding workers, factories, and labor cooperatives. Civic-award plaque commissions clustered this week need three protocol-aware design choices.

Civic Plaques Carry the Issuing Ministry Logo

Government-issued civic awards require the issuing ministry’s official logo at the upper-center of the plaque — Ministry of Labour for May Day, in regulated proportions. Use the official logo file from the ministry, not a redrawn copy. Logo size relative to plaque body should be roughly 1:6 — too small reads as informal; too large overwhelms the name.

Three-Tier Color System for Worker / Cooperative / Factory

Standard May Day plaque tiers: individual worker (brushed silver on beech, ~฿850), labor cooperative (brushed gold on walnut, ~฿1,400), industrial workplace (gold-leaf on redwood, ~฿2,800). A clear tier system lets one ceremony recognize 30+ recipients without confusion about who got what.
