KrAZ Trucks  /  June 24, 2016

Kraz Trucks has always invested significantly in the funding of social programs at the company.

The KrAZ is committed to the spending because it affects not only state of mind of staff, but also the achievement of production goals.

Employment benefits provided by KrAZ Trucks for decades has helped our employees to “weather the storm” on many occasions.  

A similar situation is now taking place. The availability of discounted lunches, baked foods, vegetables, berries, fruit and other food products produced by the truckmaker’s “Food Service Centre” help our staff to withstand the challenges of today including higher utilities and basic consumer goods costs.

KrAZ workers can afford quality hot meals in our company canteens. What’s more, the price is quite acceptable because extra charges on food products purchased by the plant are only 30 percent, while in the town network it amounts to 300 percent.

Every day, except lunches, the company’s canteens, flour room and pastry shop produce 1,000 loaves of bread, 1,000 fried and baked pies and 700 pastries with a monthly consumption of 10 metric tones of flour.

One-third of these products is sold to plant employees through our company shops and canteens, and the rest is sold to town residents through a network of local groceries.  

Summer is the busiest period for our Food Service Centre, when we harvest fruit and vegetabled which are then sold through the company’s retail network.

Our company greenhouses saw a record harvest in May of 100 kg of cucumbers, followed by 300 kg in June.

So far this year, our Food Service Centre employees have harvested over 100 kg of cabbage, 80 kg of dill, 90 kg of lettuce and 150 kg of radish.

This month, the harvesting of marrow, potato, beetroot and tomatoes has started.

At our fruit greenhouses, we have harvested 100 kg of cherries and 300 kg of black currants. The harvesting of apricots, cherry plums, apples and pears is on the horizon.

Fruit is canned to make drinks, and baked food in winter. 

Out of the UAH 5.5 million that KrAZ Trucks is invested in social programs last year, we proudly provided UAH 2 million in subsidies to the Food Service Center.

The development of social benefits and protection provided to KrAZ employees never ends. In 2016, the funding of social programs will be increased with a focus on extending the employment benefits of our employees.
