01-Mar-2007 - Europoles pays bonus to staff |
| All Europoles staff receive a 200-euro bonus, after a successful business year |
 |
As a result of a successful business sprint at the end of 2006, and after an increase in annual sales in 2006 over 2005, company management and VTC Industrieholding have expressed their appreciation to the staff of Europoles by granting them a voluntary bonus. All 560 staff at Europoles – including the 36 trainees – received with their February salary a bonus in the amount of 200 euros. In addition to the current general positive economic development, the increase in sales revenue was also the result of mild winter weather, with the result that the construction industry carried on activities as usual without a winter slowdown.
Ten of the company’s top executives, as well as both of the Managing Directors, have donated their bonus to KUNO, the Eastern Bavaria University Children’s Medical Centre in Regensburg, for construction and equipping of the Centre. Europoles management has also topped up this contribution, to increase the total donated amount to 3,500 euros. Emil Höll, Plant Manager, and Jürgen Kumpf, Member of the Workers' Council, presented the donation to the University Children’s Medical Centre at a ceremony today at the Europoles Steel Mast Plant in Regensburg.
