Will Harel

Proudly Serving: Safeway RSC #37, Winnipeg, MB

Position: Selector

Core Value: Get It Done with Passion and Integrity

Will Harel’s motto is “just get it done.” From cleaning, to doing repairs, to helping receive goods, Will is known as a guy who does a job quickly and up to standards as an order selector at the Safeway RSC in Winnipeg. He particularly applies this can-do attitude when it comes to health and safety standards at the small-but- bustling warehouse. In order to keep everyone safe while training new employees, Will came up with the idea of showing them how to use the unfamiliar machinery outside, setting up stacks of wood pallets to mimic trailers.The new hires were then able to practice backing into the pallets, which gave them time to learn the skill without the distraction of regular work going on around them. “We just find it safer to go outside with new employees the first time they’re ever driving a machine,” he says. “They’re scared, so it makes it safer for the new employee and all the employees around.”
