When we asked our Sr. Strategic Sales Support Specialist, Makiba Whitfield, about her time here at ABB, she mentioned how co-workers became family. “They say when you love what you do you will never work a day in your life...I must agree. I have been a part of the ABB family for 18 years and have shared some great times with friends or should I say FAMILY. It may have been at company sponsored picnics or Give Back events to name a few, but I have developed some lifelong relationships." #ThrowBackThursday #MomentMaker

Our team in Slovakia is staying active and embracing sustainability in their daily commute. #ABBCares
European Mobility Week at ABB Solutions Slovakia 🚌🚲🚋* Last week, we at ABB Solutions Slovakia embraced sustainable urban mobility! 🚶♂️🚴♀️ Our team made the conscious choice to leave cars at home and opted for buses, trams, bikes, or simply walked to work. The aim of Mobility Week is to raise awareness of the environmental and health challenges caused by excessive car use. Modern cities face significant issues like air pollution, traffic congestion, and noise, all of which negatively affect quality of life. 🌍 On Car-Free Day, we reflected on whether daily car use is necessary and explored greener alternatives like public transport, walking, and cycling. While it’s just one day a year, the potential for lasting change is huge if we carry forward these lessons. Together, we can contribute to a more sustainable future, one small change at a time. 🌱💡 How are you embracing sustainability in your daily commute? Let’s inspire each other! #ABBSolutionsCares #MobilityWeek #Sustainability #GreenTransport
