Richard Small, End Nipper Machine/Finishing Cell Operator at Channellock Inc., won the 13th annual Falcon Award during the company’s 130-year anniversary lunch celebration recently at Waldameer Park in Erie.
The Falcon Award is the crown jewel of the Falcon Program, a multi-faceted initiative implemented in 2003 and designed to reward, encourage and celebrate Channellock Inc. associates at work, at home and in the community. The Falcon Award is presented to the one associate who best demonstrates the ideals of the program: speed in action through productivity; far-sightedness and clear vision in making everyday decisions that impact the company’s bottom line; job performance at work; leadership skills through participation in community organizations; and a clear understanding and commitment to Channellock’s “Vision Blue,” which states that “communication, commitment, cooperation and constant improvement yield success.”
Small’s dedication, positive attitude and missionary work are examples of how Channellock has benefitted from his exemplary service. Small’s peers nominated him for the award, highlighting his 27 years of service and commitment to the company.
