Recognition
"I called Nat to support outside of her role because I knew she had the right attitude to get it done. We were deemed non compliant and the workshop closed down until we had inspections built into iAuditor. After speaking with Nat, she jumped in and got it done! I am so thankful for the support. Thanks Nat!" - Superintendent Maintenance Reliability
"Your facilitation of quality circles has effectively driven improvements with our workforce teams for the whole site.
Your contribution has aided in the completion of 3 major problem solves, 3 procedural reviews, 45 actions closed out and 2 Bright spot awards.
Keep the energy going!" - Dept Manager
"I would love the opportunity to be able to show my appreciation to my line leader Natalie Howell by giving her well deserved recognition. Being brand new to mining 7 months ago, she has built me to be a capable Site Admin, and I will forever be grateful for making my dream come true. We are the team we are because of her"- Site Administrator
"Thank you Natalie for going above and beyond to build a new and sustainable rostering system. Working long days to ensure crew roster was 100% accurate & complete prior to rolling out & providing support to leaders during the transition. She went above & beyond her duties as she is always looking for ways to improve as she is passionate about the project. Nat has also teamed up with other Admins/sites &departments to assist with the roll out of Crew roster"- Site Administrator
