G14 FINALIST FOR
TRAINING AND
DEVELOPMENT
Quickslide has been shortlisted as a finalist in the
G14 awards for best Training and Development
Initiative with a submission that was personally
signed by every member of the workforce.
The Yorkshire-based fabricator,
that has always regarded its people as part of its commitment to
World Class Manufacturing and
Continuous Improvement, won the
placement after reporting how the
company reviewed and revised all
of its planning, training and development procedures and is now
looking to gain six-figure savings
as a result.
Chairman Adrian Barraclough, said:
“It is only natural that every member
of the team should sign as a part of the
submission because every one of them
played their part in the review and in the
continuing success it has brought us. In
just the same way, if we are chosen as
winners, they can all be equally as proud
of the trophy.”
The submission spells out how Quickslide first identified its shortcomings and
their causes, then how to overcome each
one individually.
Adrian added: “The result was that
every member of the workforce became
accountable problem solvers, understanding that this is their business and they
will shape its future and benefit from
its success. There are now many training systems that seamlessly align each
department to the achievement of our
vision.”
Quickslide is best-known for its acclaimed
sliding sash windows, and the company
has been instrumental in bringing this
former niche product into the mainstream
of the retrofit and new-build markets, but
it also manufactures a wide range of other
styles of windows and doors for trade,
commercial and domestic customers.
