The contest was two-fold and comprised a theoretical and a practical part. First, it took the contestants one hour to do a test on electrical equipment and labor protection requirements. As for the practical task, it was more time-consuming as the difficulty of the task was in line with the highly-skilled employees’ qualifications.

In the end, Alik Galimov, a cable line repair and assembly specialist from the Electrical Department, was given the first prize. He was followed by Vladimir Zheltyshev from the Steel-Smelting Department, and Yegor Ignatov, an electrician from the Pipe-Rolling Department. Under the terms of the contest, the winners were awarded money prizes. What is more, every winner was presented with an all-expenses-paid family holiday at Trubnik Resort.
