THE SOCIAL ASPECT OF STORK



This book has been written with a view to giving our kiends abroad some idea of the scope of the Stork concern. This great enterprise comprises a parent works and live subsidiary undertakings employing in all some 8000 workers and covering a very vide field of the engineering trade.

Since most of the products of the Stork Works are exported, something of these works will already be known to many abroad, but in general a very incomplete picture of the capacity of the concern
as a whole is gained in this way.

It should be appreciated that these individual products constitute only a part of a very varied production programme, which has enabled Stork engineers to accumulate technical knowledge and experience such as will hardly be jouw! elsewhere. This knowledge and experience is in turn utilized to maintain the high standard of each of the separate products.
[
The aim of this book is to give an insight into this many-sided activity. It can of course give no more than a super ficial survey. Should it instill the desire to know more o f certain products or certain aspects of our works, we or our agents abroad shall be glad to give further information.
