On the eve of Miner's Day and the beginning of the school year, as well as in connection with the celebration of the 25th anniversary of the establishment of JSC Kuzbasskaya Toplivnaya Company, an event with the children of the company's employees was held in the Kemerovo office.
Almost fifteen children, accompanied by an animator, took a tour of the building and solved entertaining quests on the topic of working in the office of a coal mining company. The children learned what tasks their parents cope with during work.
The program of the event included:
- tasks on drawing up logical schemes for the sale of coal through a sales company,
- a business game on the selection of personnel for vacant positions based on the HR and HR policy department,
- solving practical problems on calculating profits from coal sales and distributing revenues for taxes, wages and business needs based on the financial reporting and tax accounting department of KTK Consulting LLC,
- a task on restoring program code damaged by a virus in the office of IT specialists,
- formation of trains and laying out routes for the delivery of coal to different points of the country based on the logistics department.
At the end of the tests and pumping up useful skills for work, the guys had a meeting with the managing director Evgeny Dmitriev. The most important person in the office held an impromptu business meeting for the young guests: he asked them what useful things they had learned during the quests, what they had learned about their parents’ work, presented them with souvenirs with corporate symbols and invited them to work after graduating from specialized educational institutions.
After the “meeting,” the kids had a snack with hot pizza and sweets, as well as a trip to the Krasnaya Gorka Museum with its unique multimedia exhibition in the historical “Kopikuza” mission (the building of the Kuznetsk Coal Mines Joint-Stock Company, 1912-1919).
At one time, the founders of Kopikuz created an industrial framework, laying the foundation for the transformation of Kuzbass from a remote Siberian province into the largest industrial center of the country, the foundation for the development of the Urals and Siberia. At the exhibition, the children learned how coal deposits were formed, what the flora and fauna were like hundreds of millions of years ago, and, as part of a special master class, they drew with charcoal.
"According to feedback, children really liked our event and this is the most important thing. Our task was to explain in an accessible and dynamic form that office work is directly related to the extraction of minerals, that it is diverse and interesting. Perhaps some of our young guests will remember this day, be inspired and want to follow in their parents’ footsteps, continuing the dynasty in our company,” says Svetlana Yeletskaya, Head of the HR and Personnel Policy Department.
