Summary
Brochure for distribution to Kodak Australasia Pty Ltd employees circa 1970s, titled 'Your Suggestion...It Won't Be The First', promoting the Kodak suggestions box.
Kodak rewarded employees for making suggestions to improve Kodak's efficiency, productivity or work flow. This brochure explains how employees could pick up a form from anywhere around the organisation and either put it in one of the suggestions box around the factory site at Coburg, or mail it to the 'Suggestions Committee'. Besides monetary reward, Kodak offered to potentially credit the suggester in the staff newsletter, the 'Kodakery', alongside their photograph, for suggestions that were adopted.
This document is part of the Kodak Heritage Collection of products, promotional materials, photographs and working life artefacts collected from Kodak Australasia in 2005, when the Melbourne manufacturing plant at Coburg closed down.
Physical Description
7 page brochure printed in red and green colour scheme, with cartoon illustrations and printed text. Three holes are punched in the left side. Originally, there was a post-it note attached to the cover reading 'Barry Warden' - this has been removed.
