Staff

Associated has grown and expanded considerably over the past few years. With this growth and expansion there has been an inevitable need for well trained, experienced staff. Instead of looking for an "outside" solution, we've adopted a strategy of "promote from within".
This internal promotion policy ensures that our employees share in the wealth of the company when future opportunities arise.
For the upliftment of our workers, continuous in-house training is provided. This takes the form of life skills education, as well as specific skills training within their respective specialised disciplines. Apprenticeship training is ongoing, thereby ensuring the highest possible degree of technical skill and competence.

By implementing affirmative action policies with regard to recruitment of new staff from within the factory, the basic principle of competency-based recruitment is adhered to. This ensures that the most competent person for the job is employed, and thereby eliminates the element of “window dressing”.
