MaGinnis inspires by example

The inaugural winner of <i>PrintWeek</i>s Employee Excellence Award is simpsongroups Charlie MaGinnis.

MaGinnis is waste control operative at the Tyne and Wear point-of-sale specialist, where managing director Mark Simpson praised his proactive outlook.

MaGinnis initiatives include separating and recycling shrink-wrap, which resulted in reduced waste and reduced waste-handling costs and brought in additional revenue for the firm. If every director and manager in the UK would think for a minute about recycling it would make a real difference, MaGinnis enthused.

As his prize MaGinnis receives a luxury weekend break for two courtesy of sponsor Kodak Polychrome Graphics. The green movement is for the future and we need people like Charlie to bring our businesses into the 21st Century, said managing director Terry Baber.
