It does have the potential to script new records and I am sure that the department will recreate the success stories to lead the plant to glory.\u201d The DIC emphasized upon effective maintenance and proper inspection for better equipment health and elimination of breakdowns. \u201cWith the hot metal production from the Blast Furnaces consistently rising, SMS-II must gear up to ensure conversion of the increased Hot Metal to Crude Steel and you as the frontline employees have a key role to play.\u201d He also stressed on further reducing cost of production, enhancing safety and ensuring good housekeeping. \u201cThe expectations are big from SMS-II with highly enthusiastic quality manpower and their innate strength of finding solutions through innovative means,\u201d he added.

Mr. P K Satapathy in his address advised the collective to sensitise the contract labour working on the shop floor about safety and help them upgrade their skill levels. Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Behuria stressed on further improving the techno-economics and emphasized upon judicious use of expensive additive alloys which will help in reducing the cost of production.<br \/>\nThe session witnessed active participation of the employees who spoke on different issues pertaining to their areas of work.
