Dr Detlev Seidel, Managing Director Operations of the Piller Group, expressed his thanks to the employees celebrating their jubilee. “The loyalty of long-serving employees is the backbone and capital of our company. Especially in today’s times, which are characterised by short term thinking and a shortage of skilled workers, loyalty has a special significance.”
“Our appreciation goes to our employees celebrating their jubilee. They have made a significant contribution to the success of the company with their experience, commitment and expertise. They are also role models for our junior staff in difficult times. Their knowledge and skills have contributed to Piller being in such a good position today.”
Works Council Chairman Ingo Schlange and Human Resources Manager Heinrich Kratz echoed the thanks and recogition of the team achievement and added their congratulations.
After a guided tour of the Luisenhall Saline in Göttingen, the last operating commercial pan boiler plant in Europe, the jubilarians were invited to dinner at the Hotel Freizeit In.
