Seifsa launches Awards for Excellence
To encourage growth and celebrate excellence in the metals and engineering sector, the Steel and Engineering Industries Federation of Southern Africa (Seifsa) is introducing the yearly Seifsa Awards for Excellence.
This year’s winners will be announced on the first day of the two-day Metals and Engineering Indaba, which will take place on May 28 and 29, at Emperors Palace, in Ekurhuleni, east of Johannesburg.
To foster a culture of excellence in these industry sectors, the Seifsa Awards for Excellence offer ten different categories and the federation invites Southern African manufacturers in the metals and engineering industries to submit their entries.
Seifsa Awards Categories
The Most Innovative Company of the Year award will go to a company that shows the highest level of innovation in research and development or production.
The Health and Safety Company of the Year award will go to a company with the best legal compliance record in health and safety, or the lowest lost-time-injury frequency rate.
Seifsa also urges companies whose corporate social responsibility programmes have a major impact on the lives of its beneficiaries to submit their entries.
Companies rated the highest in customer performance by the industry will receive the Customer Service Award of the Year.
The Most Transformed Company of the Year award will go to a company that shows the highest level of transformation in terms of the composition of its board of directors, executive management and managerial team. Companies employing fewer than 100 people, as well as companies employing more than 100 people, can enter.
Seifsa’s This is the Decade of the Artisan award will go to the company that has trained the highest number of artisans.
The Environment Stewardship award will go to the nominee that has made the biggest strides towards environmental conservation and mitigating the impact of its operations on the environment.
Seifsa’s member companies and affiliated associations will also be honoured at the awards function.
Commenting on the need for the industry awards in today’s business climate, Seifsa marketing and communications executive Adelia Pimentel says: “It is of paramount importance that companies play a crucial role in socioeconomic upliftment and that they are recognised for their contributions and encouraged to continuously do more.”
