ArcelorMittal Tubular Products Vitry recently held a ceremony to recognize the outstanding contributions and milestones of its employees. The event showcased the company's commitment to fostering innovation, rewarding long-term dedication, and promoting inclusivity within its workforce.
The ceremony began by honoring long-serving employees with Medals of Honor. Three individuals, Sabrina Dallimonti, Gaël Evenas, and Jacques Justin, received Silver Medals for their 20 years of service. The Gold Medal, recognizing 35 years of service, was awarded to seven employees: Christine Deshayes, Philippe Dubret, Luc Guyot, Claude Leroux, Dominique Nathier, Laurent Neuville, and Eric Thomas. Nathalie Oudart stood out with a Grand Gold Medal for an impressive 40 years of service. These awards highlight the company's appreciation for employee loyalty and the wealth of experience these individuals bring to ArcelorMittal.
Innovation took center stage as the company recognized employees who contributed impactful ideas to improve operations. Eleven named individuals and three unnamed colleagues were acknowledged for their innovative thinking. One standout idea involved implementing signaling posts to alert forklift drivers of preparers' presence in aisles at CMP1, enhancing workplace safety. This recognition demonstrates ArcelorMittal's commitment to fostering a culture of continuous improvement and valuing employee-driven solutions.
The company's dedication to social responsibility was evident through the Activ'Challenge, an initiative aimed at raising disability awareness. Three employees - Cédrick Wit, Roxanne Girard, and Léo Beauvois - received gift vouchers for their participation. ArcelorMittal Tubular Products Vitry's ranking of 216th out of 970 participating companies underscores its commitment to promoting inclusivity and understanding within the workplace.
Academic achievements were also celebrated, reflecting the company's support for employee development. Arthur Brunet was recognized for earning a Bachelor Universitaire Technologie in "Physical Measurements and Instrumentation Techniques," while Jason Mena obtained a Brevet Technicien Supérieur in "Industrial Product Design." These accomplishments showcase the diverse talents within ArcelorMittal's workforce and the company's encouragement of continuous learning.
In a unique honor, David Evrard represented ArcelorMittal Europe Tubular Products as a torchbearer for the Olympic flame. As the sole representative from the company's production sites, Evrard's participation symbolizes the spirit of unity and excellence that ArcelorMittal strives to embody. He proudly presented "the heart of the torch," a trophy awarded to him and the 11,000 other torchbearers, further cementing the company's connection to this prestigious global event.
To commemorate the upcoming 2024 Olympics and reinforce its commitment to sustainability, ArcelorMittal distributed Ecocups and insulated water bottles to all personnel. This gesture not only shows support for the Olympic Games but also aligns with the company's environmental consciousness, encouraging employees to reduce single-use plastic consumption in their daily lives.
