Guo-Qiang Li from OTIZ shares a heartfelt experience regarding occupational training:
In 2020, I entered the Forklift Contest held at the plant, which was hosted by Senior Manager Jun-Qin Chen at Factory Affairs Department. This year’s contest features the theme, “Skill Demonstration, Exchange and Elevation”. The aim is to improve employee skills with technological exchange, and create the work culture of “matching, learning, competing and optimizing”, as well as the spirit of “safety first”. OTIZ aspires to establish a quality warehousing and shipping team that is skilled, safe, efficient and in harmony. 
To be prudent, OTIZ invited professional technicians from Mitsubishi & Linde to train us. President M.J. Wu also visited. I focused attentively and carefully took notes. After all, the information is essential for safety.
The new knowledge and skills acquired during training are now put to use. The race track is quite narrow, which is a test for our ability to control the forklift with steadiness and precision. I went through our usual warm up routine and was ready to go. The commander, supervisor, judges, score keeper and contestants watched me as I got onto the forklift. I took a deep breath, and turned the key, released the hand break, sounded the horn and ready to accelerate. I rehearsed these moves in my mind thousands of times and finished them in one shot. After hearing the applause, I exhaled and realized palms were covered in sweat.
Other contestants were also superbly skillful. Be it driving, parking, lifting, they performed these maneuvers with poise, precision and safety. The crowd was cheering for them. 
This contest is competitive and yet entertaining. However, it is more than a visually exciting contest. It is also a stage for staff to demonstrate skills, which is an important link in cultivating talents, and I believe it will also be an important driving force in OTIZ’s sustainable development!
