"The men and women who work on the front lines of our manufacturing operations every day are the company's most important asset," explains Randy Harbath, vice president of manufacturing for GP's Broadway mill. "Whenever we work to improve efficiency, solve manufacturing problems, or make our facilities safer or more sustainable, we rely on the experts – our employees." The company's use of Market Based Management® principles, based on integrity and compliance, allows employees to realize their greatest individual potential. "Georgia-Pacific is a place where ideas are valued, outstanding work is rewarded, and high performers have plenty of opportunities for advancement in a global company," explains Mike Stankevitz, director of manufacturing for GP's Day Street mill. With approximately 300 facilities across North America, South America and Europe, Georgia-Pacific is one of the world's leading manufacturers and marketers of bath tissue, paper towels and napkins, tableware, paper-based packaging, office papers, cellulose, specialty fibers, nonwoven fabrics, building products and related chemicals. Its Green Bay facilities make nationally known products – Quilted Northern®, Angel Soft® and Compact® bath tissue; enMotion® and SofPul® paper towels; and Vanity Fair® and Mardi Gras® napkins. Though the mills have been operating for more than 95 years, today's work environment requires employees to be technically fluent and continual learners, innovators and problem-solvers. GP's Neenah-based research and development facility, iNNOVATION institute®, constantly develops creative and innovative products, and tests them in Green Bay using the latest technology available. Through volunteering, Georgia-Pacific employees also make a tangible difference in the quality of life where they live and work, especially in the areas of education, the environment, entrepreneurship, and enrichment of the local community.
