BREMEN. In November, bremenports announced that the container ship “Al Kharj” had completed its stay at the Kaiserhafen’s west quay and had left the port. In order to tow the 306-metre-long carrier through the Kaiserschleuse back onto the River Weser, a dock lock had to be performed. This had to be done, because the ship was longer than the lock. For a successful passage, both lock gates had to be open at the same time and the water level in the Weser and in the port had to be approximately identical. The dock lock for the “Al Kharj” took just under 40 minutes.
J. MÜLLER: Successful end of apprenticeship project
BRAKE. In late June, J. MÜLLER announced: “The cameras have been switched off, the editing done – the short films for our ‘Lebenswelten’ training project are ready!” The project looks at the different cultural and national identities of staff, who all tell their own story. The project not only contributed towards promoting integration but also strengthened the commitment of the trainees,” said Antje Streicher, Human Resources Manager at J. Müller. Since then, the films have been shown during internal and public events as well as on J. MÜLLER social media channels.
