PELVARO PACKAGING Notice to all employees September 3

The personnel department will offer interview workshops on September 18 for employees interested in other positions within the company. Attendance is free, and employees may attend during their regular working hours with their supervisor's approval.

Two types of workshops are available: Interview Foundations and Interview Practice. Employees who have never attended Interview Foundations must take that workshop before joining Interview Practice, even if they have previous interview experience elsewhere.

Each workshop lasts one hour. To reserve a place, use the personnel webpage by September 12. Supervisors will receive a list of participants after registration closes. Questions about eligibility should be sent to personnel coordinator Daria Fenwick.

Residents who want to improve their sleep habits can attend a new course at Lornwick Health Center next month. The three weekly classes will cover bedroom conditions, evening routines, and ways to maintain a regular bedtime. [1] The course is intended for adults and does not require a doctor's referral.

Health educator Mariel Fenwick will lead the sessions on Tuesdays from 6:30 to 7:30 P.M. [2] Each session includes a short talk and time for questions. The total fee for all three classes is $18.

Before the course begins, participants should keep a daily record of their bedtimes and waking times for one week. [3] Fenwick will review these records with the group to help participants identify habits they could change.

Registration is available by telephone until November 2. [4] Space is limited to twelve people, so the center recommends booking early. Participants will receive a workbook when they arrive.

Employees at Pelden Office Services now have a quiet room for tasks that require concentration. The company converted an unused storage area on the second floor into the new workspace. [1]

The room contains four desks, adjustable lamps and comfortable chairs. Employees can reserve a desk through the staff website or through a booking screen outside the room. [2] This allows employees to check availability before making a reservation. Each reservation can last up to two hours.

Telephone conversations and group meetings are not permitted in the quiet room. [3] Employees who need to discuss a project can use the meeting rooms on the first floor instead.

Office manager Lenora Vaskin said the quiet room was created in response to requests from staff. She will collect comments from users at the end of the month. [4] The company will use their suggestions to decide whether any changes are needed.
