Each year, NETA announces the recipient of the Outstanding Achievement Award at its PowerTest Electrical Maintenance and Safety Conference. Selected by NETA's President, consideration is given not only to the contributions of the award recipient over the past year, but also the noteworthy character traits that stand out in a volunteer-based organization. The recipient of NETA's 2010 Outstanding Achievement Award is Kerry Heid, President of Magna Electric Corporation.
MEC has been awarded status as one of Saskatchewan's Top 20 Employers. This is very exciting news for the company, because traditionally, Top 20 status has been awarded mainly to very large employers such as crown corporations, universities, and banks. MEC is smaller, but has fared well through the last year's economic downturn, growing its staff rather than laying off, and continually striving to make MEC a great place to work.asd
