The closing event "GINCANA" is the highlight of the "Health Week for the Prevention of Accidents at Work and Occupational Diseases" (SIPAT). Over 1,200 employees turned this event into a unique Oktoberfest. The individual departments formed teams and started the competition with a lot of energy, emotions and with a show for family and friends. More than 2,000 visitors made this day a special experience. The week before, the employees had already formed up for a charity run and started the social walk through the city of Estrella.

"We are delighted with this contribution to solidarity and appreciate the important services the organization provides for the children and the whole community here in Bom Retiro", said Andreas Prentki. In this year's health week ATLAS employees were trained in numerous workshops. Topics such as ergonomics and exercise in the workplace, healthy nutrition or health promotion measures were just a few of the topics that were dealt with intensively during the week.
