Volvo CE Organizes Operator's Championship

By P.P. Basistha

Volvo CE India

Volvo CE India organized its maiden Indian operator’s championship event recently at its facility at Peenya and Hosakote in Bengaluru. Operators participating at the event exhibited their operating skills on speed of operating the equipment, precision and safe operation, on both live equipment and simulators on Excavators.

Speaking to NBM&CW on the sidelines of the event, Mr. Dimitrov Krishnan, Vice President & Head of Volvo CE India, said, “There remains an immense shortage of skilled operators for advanced equipment for faster development of infrastructure. Shortage of skilled operators inhibits the optimum utilization of the advanced equipment along with deterring deliverance maximum productivity and fuel efficiency, for which the machines are built. Our reason for organizing the operator’s championship is to emphasize the importance of skill development and to do away with the gaps in appropriate operation of the equipment.”
