UrBC, Yekaterinburg, December 28, 2015. Ten metallurgical workers from Pervouralsk New Pipe Plant/PNTZ (a member enterprise of ChTPZ Group) received honorary certificates from Sverdlovsk Region Industry & Science Ministry. The awarding ceremony took place at the government house on December 22.

The ministry’s honorary certificates are issued for noticeable contribution to the development of science and industry such as completing very important tasks, getting new industrial facilities launched, and so on. The awards were given to the plant’s key experts in pipe production: rolled stock and pipe smelter Vitaly Vtyurin, pipe-caster Sergei Ivanov, design engineer Svetlana Semakina, crane operator Rizida Surnina, pipe cutter Lidia Kuklina, boiler operator Lyudmila Nechayeva, packer Nazilya Nurtdinova, woodworking machine operator Natalya Prokhorova, ferrous metals quality control operators Olga Soboleva and Albina Shayakhmetova, and control panel operator Irina Chernogorova.

‘This year, thirty of the plant’s workers with over twenty years’ experience have been awarded by Sverdlovsk Region Government altogether. The honorary certificate is both the recognition of their efforts and an opportunity to apply for the title of Sverdlovsk Region Long-Service Employee,’ said the plant’s Chair of the Trade Union Committee Sergei Oshurkov, who was present at the awarding ceremony.
