We have known Mr. Ben Witsch for a considerable period and have witnessed firsthand his dedication, diligence, and commitment to his role as a manager at our BP site. Those of us who have been fortunate enough to work alongside him recognize the profound impact his leadership has had on both our personal and professional growth.

Mr. Witsch is not just a manager; he is a mentor and a beacon of support for all his team members. Whether it was staying late to ensure tasks were completed, offering a listening ear, or providing guidance and encouragement, Mr. Witsch embodied what it truly means to be a team leader. His presence has fostered an environment of trust, respect, and cooperation, which is invaluable in an ever-demanding work setting.

The unexpected decision not to have him continue in his managerial role has left a gap that has been tangibly felt by the entire team. Evidence of his outstanding work is not just anecdotal, but also reflected in the elevated team productivity and morale during his tenure. Statistics within our department have consistently shown improvements in key performance metrics, with Mr. Witsch at the helm.

We believe that Mr. Witsch's removal as manager is a reactionary measure not aligned with the best interests of the workforce or the organization as a whole. Reinstating him would not only benefit the company's bottom line but also restore the faith and motivation of dozens of employees who look up to him for leadership.

This is a call to action to demonstrate our collective belief in Mr. Witsch’s capabilities and to re-establish his role that he so skillfully executed. We urge BP's decision-makers to reconsider their stance and answer this call by reinstating Mr. Ben Witsch as our manager.
