Huaxing Petrochemical’s technology and quality department took the initiative in September in arranging quality month activities the involved planning, implementation, summaries, and evaluation, with four operations departments taking part. From the end of Aug to early Sept, Shang Haopeng, head of the technology and quality dep’t oversaw planning, and every department responded well and came up with their own schemes. The activity’s main purpose was to get employees involved in developing a good work atmosphere. The company also wanted to instill the quality-month idea in all employees to ensure quality and had banners with the word “Quality” in bold hanging above the gate to the main office building and shops.
