Title
Present Proclamation To Western Extrusions Employees For Life-Saving Efforts.
Body
BACKGROUND:
Recently a driver lost control of her vehicle on Luna Road and crashed into the pond which separates Western Extrusions from Luna Road. Some Western Extrusions employees witnessed the accident and responded immediately to provide aid. At least one of the employees entered the cold water and pulled the female driver out of the partially submerged vehicle and carried her to safety.
This kind of “people helping people” action on part of the Western Extrusions employees exemplifies the values of the company, recognizing the involved employees’ actions placed the safety of a stranger over their own safety and inconvenience.
