15.01.2022 Congrats on 20 Years Warren Hall! Warren started at Alex Fraser in 2000, fresh out of an engineering degree. Hed received a call from his father, Lavertons water truck operator Bernie Hall who said they needed an extra pair of hands at work and the rest, as they say, is history. Starting as a Picker at the mobile crushing plant, hes worn many different hats during his tenure, including Health and Safety Coordinator, a Laboratory Technician and most recently Compliance Coor...dinator. Ive worked at all of our past and present recycling facilities. We have really progressed with our equipment and facilities, going from portable toilets and lunchrooms, makeshift control rooms and shared a weighbridge/lab/office to dedicated, air-conditioned buildings with sophisticated systems. Warrens wife Dorinda and his children helped him celebrate his milestone in style, and safely at home.
