Bright spark, perfectionist and role model
Hard work and persistence has paid off for Laser Electrical Bunbury employee Scott Bryant, who was last week named Master Electricians Australia WA Apprentice of the Year.
Mr Bryant recently finished his apprenticeship with the company and was nominated by his employers for the prestigious award.
Having started with the company in its humble beginnings, Mr Bryant is proud to have grown with the company.
Mr Bryant said he had wanted to be an electrician for a long time.
I stuck it out and did Year 11 and 12 but then decided I did not want to go to university, he said.
It took me a year to find an apprenticeship and then I found one at Laser Electrical.
I have seen the business grow which was good. We had few jobs when we started and now we struggle to keep up with the work its great.
Mr Bryant hopes to continue improving as an electrician, seeking work in the States north and doing his Certificate IV in Instrumentation which would allow him to do more industrial work.
Laser Electrical Bunbury general manager Michelle Griffiths said Mr Bryant was the companys first employee and he had a big future.

With a mission to mobilize volunteers and community partners in building affordable housing and promoting home ownership, two Habitat for Humanity duplexes are being constructed on the north side of Fairview.
Jim Haslip, Site Supervisor (and a carpenter himself), said construction is proceeding step by step, in an alternating line of work between contractors and volunteers.
Two buildings will house two 1080 ft. duplexes, with two bedrooms (the master will have a half bath), and the usual bathroom, kitchen, living room and laundry room (with a 10ft. x 10 ft deck onside).
Therell be room for two bedrooms downstairs and the roughing has been done for future development of a bathroom; all of which will be completed, depending on the size of the family who will live there.
The basement will also have a layer of drywall installed downstairs.
Haslip emphasized, The thing about Habitat for Humanity is its not a low income rental thing.
We build homes to sell to people. The whole program is designed to assist people who are paying too large a portion of their income on rent.
Theyre not able to provide a down payment; theres not (much) money left after all those bills.
As a down payment, we get our partner families (those selected for the new homes) to volunteer for 500 hours to help with the construction of (the home).
After families move in, the monthly payments are calculated at 25% of their yearly income and the mortgage rate is zero percent.

Columbus City Council voted on Wednesday, July 23 to move ahead on new paving of gravel roads in two areas this fall after public hearings were held for neighbors to speak.
The residents who spoke from one of the neighborhoods were all in favor of getting paved roads along with being billed thousands of dollars in assessments. Vocal neighbors from the other area under review by the council, however, were decidedly split whether asphalt roads and higher costs would be a good trade-off.
Four council members, with Mayor Dave Povolny absent, first opened discussion on a neighborhood involving 33 lots that could be billed on 177th Lane, 178th Lane and Heidelberg Street.
An estimated month of work, ending in mid-October, would end with topping those roads with 3 inches of asphalt. City Engineer Larry Bohrer projected the neighborhoods cost at $270,100 for a price per lot of $8,185.
Residents speak
Doug Palmer, a resident who said he has lived on 177th Lane since 1987, introduced himself as the neighbor who began a petition to work with the city on paving in the neighborhood.
I am really, really glad to see it at this stage right now, Palmer said. I think it is long overdue to have this (these roads) updated.
Most lots in the other area where the city is considering road paving this year, on Bender Street and 184th Avenue, would be assessed $8,581 per lot based on the engineers total estimate of $188,790.
