He noted that his outfit would also improve customer satisfaction since they are crucial to the existence of the company.<\/p>\n<p>Deserving staff members, who worked tirelessly in 2010 to improve the fortunes of the electricity distributing firm, were honored. The ECG Best Employees Awards Scheme was instituted in the year 2003 to acknowledge the contributions of staff towards achieving the company\u2019s corporate objectives.<\/p>\n<p>Hard working employees were nominated by their supervisors at the sectional\/districts\/directorate and regional levels and vetted by a select panel.
