-Kjeld Johannesen | CEO

We have a joint task and a shared responsibility. And we can only see the task through if we believe in it. Reducing Danish Crown’s payroll costs by 20 per cent per kilogramme represents a huge challenge. But we have come a quarter of the way, and I feel confident we can achieve our goal with the rest. You have to think what the alternative is.

From casing cleaner to TV star

The slaughterhouse in Horsens had a TV star for a day. Eighteen-year-old Kamilla Mathiasen is participating in the Danish Broadcasting Corporation’s TV youth programme SKUM, where she describes what it is like to work in the casing cleaning department.

It was slightly weird having a camera crew at such close quarters. They asked about the work and my plans for the future, and I think that everyone in the casing cleaning department had a great time, recounts the apprentice, who only has six months left before completing her two-and-a-half-year training as a casing cleaner.

Usually she is based at the slaughterhouse in Esbjerg, but because Horsens does not have any apprentices at the moment, Camilla was on loan for her TV appearance.

In 2008, almost 130 people are working in Horsens in the casing cleaning facility at the company DAT-Schaub, which has several departments in Denmark and exports casings worldwide.
