The team members at Beaulieu — a leading floor covering manufacturer headquartered in Dalton, Georgia — are working in conjunction with the Great Promise Partnership to help teens that are at risk from graduating high school gain confidence, earn a paycheck, complete their schooling, and alter their future. The program has these teens going to school in the morning and then working in Beaulieu in the afternoon, where they are valued team members in the plant, filling open positions and bringing fresh ideas to contribute to the processes within the company.
The team at Beaulieu have been named the “Faces of Manufacturing for the month of April 2016 by the Georgia Manufacturing Extension Partnership.
