The Long Service Award For Workers In The Army Workshops came in two classes: silver and bronze. The silver medal was conferred to recognize 40 years of service and the bronze medal was conferred to recognize 25 years of service. Recipients were granted a monetary prize of 50 marks for workers, 80 marks for master assistants, and 100 marks for non-budgetary masters at technical institutes.
