FLIGHT NOVEMBER 8TH, 1945 Painting by Doris Zinketsen This Present Age 7 It is no new thought that security and freedom from want in old age should be the concern of established industry. As long ago as 1882 the Samuel Fox Stocksbridge Benefit Fund was founded to provide for retired'employees. This fund continues to-day as do provisions at other branches. With time it became desirable to adopt more liberal policies. In 1935 and 1936 four voluntary contributory pension schemes were launched to cover the administra- tive and office staffs, establishment personnel, foremen and all other workers. They formed the largest comprehensive project of its kind ever established, and, so far, the only one within the industry incorporating all the workpeople. The schemes are THE UNITEDill COttMMESmTHE UNITED STEEL COMPANIES LIMITED generous in their scope and impose a heavy annual liability on the company, to which is now added the responsibility for the contributions of its 5,072 employees serving in H.M. Forces. These insurances are an instance of the initiative of enlightened management in social reform, and are tangible proof that this organisation has a sincere and profound appreciation of human needs and aspirations. The community depends on steel to satisfy its necessities and provide its amenities. Thus it is of national interest that the development and economic stability of the industry should provide steady employment and social security for the company's employees. 7 WESTBOURNE ROAD SHEFFIELD io STEEL, PEECH &TOZER, SHEFFIELD SAMUEL FOX & CO.
