ASRY Opens Rest Points for Company Workers

ASRY (Arab Shipbuilding & Repair Yard) is the Arabian Gulf’s leading maritime repair and fabrication facility. Founded in 1977 in Bahrain, the multi-service yard operates in four sectors – Ship Repair & Conversion, Rig Repair & Conversion, Naval Repair & Conversion, and Fabrication & Engineering.

Maximum Flexibility

ASRY’s variety of facilities, from graving dock to floating dock, to slipways, to 4km of alongside berth space, means maximum flexibility in accommodating ship schedules.

Single Location

Every major repair sub-contractor, classification society, and specialist workshop has an on-site presence at ASRY so that any repair requirements can be met without delay.

Leading Turnaround

Bahrain’s trade policies mean that importing and exporting parts and labour is quicker and more efficient than regional yards, meaning faster turnaround for all repair projects.

ASRY Opens Rest Points for Company Workers

The Arab Shipbuilding and Repair Yard Company (ASRY) opened 3 worker rest points equipped with essential services as one of the company’s facilities. This was held in an official opening ceremony that took place last Monday at the company headquarters in Hidd, in partnership with Jotun Group and Western Area Trading Company.

In attendance was the Deputy CEO Shaikh Mohamed bin Rashed Al Khalifa, the Executive Management Team of ASRY, Jotun and Western Area Trading Company, as well as the employees and sub-contractors involved in the project.

During the inauguration, the DCEO commented, “Today we launch the first phase of the project, which will then be built upon in the upcoming period. This project aims to harness a safe and comfortable work environment that streamlines the employees’ path to success, and reflects ASRY’s values of safety, responsibility, and teamwork.”

ASRY Support Services General Manager & the Human Resources Senior Manager, Shaikh Duaij bin Mohammed Al Khalifa, added that this social initiative comes in line with the company’s goal of reviving the values of social responsibility and implementing them by providing a healthy and positive working environment for all employees. Through providing rest points for workers, ASRY aims to preserve the employees’ safety and ward of any risks related to heat stress, especially during the summer.
