Xella trainee day 2019
Mutual exchange, networking and interdisciplinary cooperation – these are the basic ideas for our annual trainee meetings.
The Xella-Crew of 60 trainees and trainers from all over Germany met again this year for the annual trainee day at the headquarter in Duisburg.
Mutual exchange, networking and interdisciplinary cooperation – these are the basic ideas for our annual trainee meetings. The autumn event included workshops about various safety topics to highlight the importance of safety in daily work. For this purpose, our plant manager from Rotenburg presented an exciting apprentice project. Apprentices have shot work safety videos which show dangerous work situations by means of a positive and a negative example of behavior. This is an important contribution that is intended to encourage everyone to behave in accordance with safety regulations. In addition, there were further presentations, including risk assessments, assessments of danger and injury risk and an exercise to concentrate on the essentials in dangerous situations (e.g. when walking distractedly).
Sports activities on the go-kart track, team-building games and a joint meal with the management of Xella Deutschland rounded off the program.
Apprentices, trainers and management all agreed: a successful Xella trainee day 2019.
