“Over the past five years, the Top Driver campaign has helped operators improve their skillset, share best practices and promote the values of charity and sustainability in the construction industry,” said Wang Zhizhong, board chairman of SDLG. “The programme has travelled to several countries, including Russia and Thailand.” SDLG has hosted more than 50 Top Driver workshops around the globe over the last three years, benefitting some 15,000 professionals in the construction machinery industry. The 2017 Top Driver award ceremony was also part of SDLG’s 45th anniversary celebrations. This year, the workshop made it to four cities across China, as well as four cities in Russia.

SDLG designed this programme to better standardise machine operations and best practices across the industry. To be recognised as Top Drivers, the award recipients are required to score highly in theory and technical tests and also to have a strong work ethic.
