KINNECT, Chief Executive, Kevin Conlon, said:
“25 years ago today when I started KINNECT, I didn’t really know what I really wanted to do, but I knew I just wanted to help people. Today, there are many more KINNECTers here to help us achieve this vision and helping people healthy, safe and productive at work.
“Our core values – happy, highly skilled people, creating sustainable value – are more than words on a wall. They are a way of life at KINNECT. As such, we have some of the very best people in KINNECT, highlighted by the fact we had so many nominations for these Awards. I’m proud of each and every one of our people and for every one of our winners.
“Congratulations to all of this year’s K-Day Awards Winners who have lived up to our core values and set an outstanding example to us all .”
