An Open Day with the slogan “The Future Starts Today” was held on 4 February at the Berezniki Branch of Perm National Research Polytechnic University (BB PNRPU). This traditional event for graduating students featured an interactive quiz presented by Uralkali. The students learned about the occupations required by Uralkali and had the opportunity to try on miner and machine operator work clothes. All students received sylvinite rocks as a souvenir.
