93 years old and still working
Henk Kluver works now for 20 hours a week.
Each day he will come to Van Raam and he is an icon in the factory. Because of his long career, he knows a lot of each process in the company. Mr. Kluver still attends tradeshows and he likes the company outings of Van Raam. He doesn’t want to stop working because
he loves his job and the work environment. Also his wife (88 years old) and his children from
round 60 years old, like that he is still working.
When he is asked for his secret how to work that long he has said a lot of nice things:
"Humor, I always start the day with a joke. If you change your hobby into a job, your job will be your hobby. I don’t like old people, (what I mean: people who behave like old people). I always say in the factory, there is only one quality and that is good quality, that was in 1939 and that is in 2016 still so. I take care for the lessons of life, that is how I see it."
Mr. Kluver likes to puzzle, painting and white Port. The Ajax fan buys a new car every three years.
