Aluminium Bahrain (Alba) and Gulf Aluminium Rolling Mill Company (GARMCO) have signed a two-year knowledge-sharing agreement to boost the technical capabilities of GARMCO’s Bahraini employees.
As part of the agreement, a select group of technical staff from GARMCO, one of the largest downstream aluminium facilities in the region, will join Alba on a part-time secondment to gain practical training and on-the-job exposure.
Ali Al Baqali, Alba’s CEO, said: “Knowledge-sharing is the foundation of progress. By opening our facilities and training GARMCO’s employees, we are fostering a culture of learning that benefits the entire aluminium industry in Bahrain.
“This is Bahrainis supporting Bahrainis for a stronger tomorrow."
The collaboration will equip the technical staff with essential skills in hydraulic and pneumatic systems. It is hoped that the training will reinforce their technical foundation and accelerate career development.
GARMCO CEO, Mohammed Rafea, added: “At GARMCO, we believe investing in our people is key to sustainable growth. This collaboration with Alba gives our technical staff valuable hands-on experience and sharpens their technical skills.
“Together, we are committed to developing a highly skilled, future-ready Bahraini workforce.”
