The Orange Site was pleased to host ARLANXEO CEO, Stephan van Santbrink and Chief Business Officer, John Sawaya last week. While in Orange, Stephan and John were treated to good Texas BBQ (thanks to Redbird for the tour of the restaurant), informative sessions with the Orange Site Management Team, and an interactive site tour.
During their visit, together with Site Manager, Jonathan Doyle, they led a townhall to review the Orange Site performance and offer updates on the business. Stephan also recognized two groups of employees who had been awarded distinctions from the company.
One group of employees was awarded the CEO Award in the area of Safety. The CEO Award recognizes extraordinary achievements and is ARLANXEO’s highest honor. These employees were involved in the 2024 Safety Leadership Training Program which was created to provide tools and knowledge to our leaders to bring our safety performance to the next level through promoting a culture of care and building trust. The Orange Site employees recognized were Cody Boullion, David Hulsey, Drew Pennington, Grant Hanson, Israel Self, Jason Forester, Mark Bland, Michael Sampson, and Troy Trahan. They were under the leadership of Alex Soileau.
Another award presented was to the employees who had the top submission for March to the Before & After Safety Program. This program recognizes teams of employees who champion changes that improve day to day safety at the site. The Orange Site employees recognized were Shane Sonnier, Scott Warren, and David Sourdellia.
