Viktor Netesanov, Vice-president of the Employers’ Federation of Rostov region:
– We see that besides the development of production, social sector receives a lot of attention as well. Company’s slogan – “The Plant – More than just a job” – says a lot about the systematic career orientation activities, attention to employees, their families and kids, commitment to personnel training and development. All of these are the values that make a strong company brand and strengthen its stability and reputation.
Roman Koryakin, Chairman of the Taganrog City Council:
– For the enterprise, 129 years is just the beginning of a longer story. Not only did “Krasny Kotelshchik” withstand difficult times, it also became the symbol of reliability and professionalism. Plant’s main value is its people. Thanks to hard work, energy and loyalty of the team, the enterprise lives on, grows and helps the country. There is a sense of special gratitude for preserving the legacy. On the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, declared by the president of the Russian Federation the year of the Protector of the Motherland, boilermakers initiated the reconstruction of the Great Patriotic War memorial, thus expressing homage to the heroes who gave their lives for the sake of future generations.

All of this commands genuine respect.
Festive events dedicated to the remarkable occasions not only included the honoring of the best employees but also turned into a vivid expression of gratitude to the entire workforce - people who sincerely love their craft and proudly bear the name of “boilermaker”. In addition to the award ceremony, the company has planned another gift for the employees and their families – a show of performing arts “Love, poetry, and jazz”, which will immerse the audience in the harmony of art.
