'We're even running out of traditional cooperage skills to ‘raise up’ the barrels imported from American whiskey and Spanish sherry production.' -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 hrs (2014-02-27 09:45:12 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- COMPARE THIS WITH THE QUOTE ABOVE (ALSO FROM THE PORT OF ANTWERP WEBSITE): 'Cepa beschikt over eigen gemotiveerde, hoogopgeleide en ervaren veiligheidsexperts. Elke veiligheidsexpert schoolt zich continu bij via studiedagen en gespecialiseerde opleidingen. Bovendien hebben de veiligheidsexperts een bepaalde specialisatie die gerelateerd is aan de acht specifieke veiligheidsdomeinen of -doelgroepen: containerterminals, stukgoed, **kuiperij**, magazijnen, technische diensten, Seveso, roro en bulk. In de haven worden er ook praktijkgerichte veiligheidsopleidingen georganiseerd.' (http://www.duurzamehavenvanantwerpen.be/nl/content/people/pr... ) |
