Determined to encourage employees, Julius Berger Plc has recognised and honoured several employees for their meritorious and diligent service to the company.
In a statement, the Managing Director of Julius Berger Nigeria Plc, Dr. Peer Lubaschv underscored the uniqueness of the staff of the organisation to the landmark growth of the company over the years, describing them as a bundle of inspiration to every other staff.
He spoke at the 2024 Long Service Awards ceremony held recently in Abuja just as the Director of Administration, Dr. Abdulaziz Kaita, reminded the 795 awardees of the need for sustained unity to achieve greater success.
According to Lubasch, the workers’ commitment has not only driven Julius Berger forward; it has also left an indelible mark on Nigeria’s development.
He said,” What makes this celebration even more extraordinary is that 537 of today’s honourees, making up 68 per cent are employed in Abuja, exemplifying a remarkable backbone of our operations. Your contributions are the bedrock of our continued growth and innovation.
“Your resilience, expertise, and passion define who we are as a company, a beacon of excellence in the construction industry. As we celebrate your achievements, let us remember that our shared values of collaboration, courage, responsibility, and excellence remain our guiding light. Together, we will continue building a legacy that inspires generations to come.
Describing the event as an auspicious occasion where the exceptional dedication and unwavering loyalty of staff were rewarded, the Director of Administration, Abdulaziz Kaita, said even as it is a celebration of those who have shown a remarkable commitment to Julius Berger, it has personal significance to his person as it marks not only my new role as Director of Administration at JBN effective January 1, 2024, but also his 35th anniversary with the company.
Kaita ended his speech by motivating all to work harder, saying, with the unwavering support of our partners and friends, we can conquer and challenge and achieve remarkable success. Let us continue to advance with strength, unity, and determination.”
