Aluminium Bahrain B.S.C. (Alba)'s Chief Executive Officer, Tim Murray launched the 'Town Hall Meeting' today, January 12, 2014 for all Alba employees at the Oasis Hall.

Conducted by Murray, the 'Town Hall Meeting' aims to update employees on Alba's 2013 performance and the expectations for 2014 through presentations and interactive sessions.

Adding more on this special initiative, Tim Murray said:

"The purpose of the "Town Hall Meetings" is to communicate Alba's performance in a simple and transparent manner. Alba had a major achievement in terms of operational performance exceeding 900,000 metric tonnes (mt) for the first time in its 40-year history: 912,700 mt. In 2013, we also had a major upgrade in the safety culture for which I thank all our employees as well as the Alba Labour Union for their support. In 2014, we will continue to face challenging conditions with low LME prices and we will remain committed to drive operational excellence to the maximum."

The "Town Hall Meetings" will take place throughout the month of January and will cover all employees of Alba.

The meetings will be coordinated to ensure that all departments and shifts are covered. It will highlight various areas including exceptional operational performance for the previous year, Capital Expenditure Plan, goals for the coming year, and "Project Titan" cost improvement programme.
