A Banbury man has been rewarded for 45 years of continuous service at a local company.   Shaun Chaundy first joined Norbar Torque on June 5, 1978 after completing a short period of work experience with them.

Four-and-a-half decades later Shaun was this week presented with a long-service voucher by Managing Director John Reynertson, in recognition of his distinguished service to the company.

After attending Blessed George Napier School, Shaun started his working life at Norbar, which was then located on Swan Close Road.   He worked in the machine shop as an Auto Machine Loader. When the company relocated to Beaumont Road in the mid 1980’s he progressed to the role of Machine Setter/Operator, responsible for running the company’s automatic gear generating machines. He later become a Production Operator.

At the presentation in Nobar’s current premises on Wildmere Road John Reynertson said: “This week Shaun celebrates 45 years of continued service at Norbar. During his time with the company, he has worked alongside a great many individuals who make up our proud history. He is a hugely popular employee with a great many friends who I’m sure will join us in celebrating his long tenure.”

Shaun said: “I’ve always enjoyed working at Norbar and have never felt the need to look for another job. I’ve made a lot of good mates in my time here and enjoyed the good-natured banter throughout the shift along with the support that being in a close group of friends has given me.”
