Gavral Zoita was awarded Bauer Technologies annual Pride in Plant Award for 2010 whereby a member of staff is rewarded for taking pride in the piece of plant or equipment they use and maintain during a project. This is not limited to large pieces of equipment such as a BG28, but includes all plant, equipment and tools.
The criteria for this reward is not based on a fixed formula, but the following is taken into account before deciding who is the worthy recipient of the Award:
The manner in which the member of staff interacts and works within the team.
Someone who is prepared to go that extra mile.
How the individual looks after their plant/tools/equipment ensuring they are kept clean, well maintained and tidied away on
completion of a job.
How many breakdowns have occurred due to lack of maintenance?
Is the plant/equipment safe to use and used safely?
Someone who creates an excellent example to others working on site.
The Award forms part of BAUER Technologies continuous improvement programme to reward their employees for going 'the extra mile'. In doing this it also helps to promote a positive site culture where team members at the front line are encouraged to highlight areas for possible improvement and present those ideas to the site management team for discussion and possible implementation.
Many congratulations to Gavral for this well deserved award. He has shown a dedicated approach to his duties and to adapting to the difficulties of the Central London environment.
