A total of 375 employees from the various subsidiaries of the ANSA McAL Group of Companies was honoured by the group’s executive management during a long-service awards ceremony at the Hyatt Regency Trinidad, Wrightson Road, Port-of-Spain. The event, themed, “Excellence in Action—A Celebration of Long-Service Distinction”, was held on Tuesday night.
ANSA McAL Group Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Norman Sabga, told guests the celebration was most fitting since “employees are our most valued asset.” Hence, he said, the imminent establishment of the Anthony N Sabga Learning Resource Centre, in Champ Fleurs. Among those present were Chairman Emeritus, Dr Anthony N Sabga; ANSA McAL Group Chief Operating Officer, Gerry Brooks, and Sector Head, Financial Services, Ray Sumairsingh. The outstanding employees were honoured for serving faithfully for 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 and 50 years.
Standards’ Distributors supervisor, Andrea Lee Sing, was honoured for her 56 years of service. Sabga said: “Today, ANSA McAL is a strong, vibrant and progressive company.
We owe this success to the dedication, resourcefulness, creativity and innovation of our employees, who work in our diversified group, and who bring specialised skills to our multi-faceted operations.” He said ANSA McAL was committed to “mounting and nurturing progammes designed to enhance the value of human capital. “One of the key initiatives is to establish the Anthony N Sabga Learning Resource Centre. We hope this facility will play a pivotal role in upgrading the skills of employees to meet the new business challenges, brought about by the competitiveness of the new global market and technological changes,” added Sabga. He also reminded the gathering of the company’s core values — employee-centred, customer excellence, creativity and innovation, social responsibility and respect and trust.
