Up next for Warehouse Worker Appreciation Week, we highlight Jason Tavenner who has been with Veritiv for 26 years in our Denver, CO facility. One year ago, Jason accepted the position of lead on our night shift. Jason has done everything expected of him and more in this new role! Without having to be directed, he comes in, gets everything rolling, and stays on top of the workload throughout the night. His leadership has made the team’s job easier on the night shift. Happy Warehouse Worker Appreciation Week, Jason! Thank you for your commitment to Veritiv and our customers.
To continue our Warehouse Worker Appreciation Week spotlights, we recognize Jaira Dinora Rivera Rizo. Jaira started in kitting and was recently promoted to Forklift Operator in our Jalisco, Mexico facility. She has been with Veritiv for a year and a half, and during this short time has proven to be a top performer. Thank you, Jaira, for your commitment to Veritiv and for your dedication to our customers!
In honor of Warehouse Worker Appreciation Week, we acknowledge Wendell Dixon who has been with Veritiv for more than 30 years in our Burlington, NJ facility. Wendell’s supervisor, Serous Hasani, said, “I was out of town and I called Wendell on a Saturday night to seek his help to load a pallet of stretch film for an emergency order that had to get delivered on Sunday morning. Without hesitation, Wendell went to the division and safely located the product, loaded it on the truck, updated the shipping paperwork, and secured the building. Wendell’s dedication and pride to his job helped Veritiv provide exceptional service to one of our accounts. I am humbled to have Wendell on my operations team.” Thank you, Wendell! Your dedication to our customers has enabled Veritiv to remain successful, even in these trying times.
This Warehouse Worker Appreciation Week has deeper meaning amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Our warehouse employees have been a vital part of our Customer Focus value keeping us operational. This week, we will recognize some of our exceptional warehouse workers who make Veritiv a great place to work. Up first, we would like to recognize Shipping and Receiving Clerk Gustavo Lima in our Miami, FL facility. Gustavo’s positive and can-do attitude has been a shining light for the AAC/Veritiv Miami team. During the COVID-19 pandemic, when his team was in need of extra personnel, he stepped up to help by taking on additional shifts. Thank you, Gustavo, and the AAC/Veritiv Miami team for your hard work and dedication to Veritiv!
#BlackHistoryMonth is a time to recognize the contributions and achievements of those with African heritage. This year, we are inspired by a quote from the inauguration speech of Vice President Kamala Harris. “Even in dark times, we not only dream, we do. We not only see what has been, we see what can be. We shoot for the moon, and then we plant our flag on it. We are bold, fearless, and ambitious. We are undaunted in our belief that we shall overcome; that we will rise up. This is American aspiration,” Harris said.
Our Veritiv Canada facilities passed government COVID-19 inspections. Our team members adhere to the protocols put in place to ensure all who work and visit our buildings remain safe and healthy. Thank you to our teams in Mississauga, Ontario; St. Laurent, Quebec; Calgary, Alberta; and New Westminster, British Columbia. #SafetyFirst #EssentialWorkers
