In order to encourage quality and efficiency in the weave room, the mill each week singles out for recognition those operators with the best records. Names of the leading operators are posted on the mill bulletin board and are published in The Mill Whistle. The “Weavers of the Week” are those with the lowest per cent of seconds with respect to the standards. The “top” fixers are determined through a combination of low seconds and high loom efficiency.
