Operating procedure:
 

Wednesday the 17e of November we were invited at the company Goss Contiweb. After a tour through Goss Contiweb we asked our questions to Evert an important employee of Goss Contiweb.

 

Choice of the company:
 

We couldn’t choose the company ourselves, because the teacher “Hans Steenman” did that. He did that because, he knows things better and he knows where the IBS students were doing their work placement.

When I heard that our company was Goss Contiweb and that Ilhan was our IBS student, I was happy because I know who Ilhan is, so it was more comfortable for me to go to the company.

In August 2004, Goss International acquired Heidelberg Web Systems and is now one of the world's largest web offset printing solution providers.

There is One product were Goss Contiweb is specialised in. 

Is the M-600

 

Every day, over the hole world, printers are using the M-600™ press to produce high quality print. The M-600 press has become the universal reference on the 16-page commercial market and offers the highest sales in its category. The M-600 press is designed for the highest quality. Goss Contiweb isn’t a wholesaler it’s a producer. Because they are specialised in only two things the press and the dryer and those two things became the M-600.

Human recourses is one of the most important functions in any business and it covers:

Goss Contiweb doesn’t have difficulties with the job security because there is enough work in the graphic industry. 

 

Training and development:
 

Goss thinks training is an important thing. If you get the job then you don’t know anything about the equipment and in which way you must do your work. Because you have never seen some thing like a M-600 so with training you learn more about the equipment and in which way everything in the business works.For Goss Contiweb it is also a profit to have trained employees and it can also work motivating towards the employees.Customer safety must be paramount. All customers have a right to expect from Goss Contiweb to take all reasonable precautions to ensure their safety and well-being.

Health and safety at work:
 

Goss Contiweb provides a workplace that is safe and healthy. They take every procedure to carry out safety. In the chapter about Human Resources you have already read more about the procedures.

 

Employees get trained on using hazardous equipment. Because when an employee is new he doesn’t know the equipment that he must use for the machine.
