We’re delighted and very proud to announce that we have been awarded a Gold Medal at this year’s RoSPA Occupational Health and Safety Awards. It is the fifth consecutive year we’ve been awarded a Gold Medal in the prestigious annual scheme run by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA).

The RoSPA Awards is celebrating 60 years of presenting highly-regarded and sought after accolades to businesses and organisations which have shown commitment to accident and ill-health prevention.

Through the scheme, which is open to businesses and organisations of all types and sizes from across the UK and overseas, judges consider entrants’ overarching occupational health and safety management systems, including practices such as leadership and workforce involvement.

Julia Small, RoSPA’s head of awards and events, said: " To win an award at such a highly-regarded event as the RoSPA Awards is a great achievement for our winners. It recognises their commitment to maintaining an excellent health and safety record and raises the bar for other organisations to aspire to. We offer them our congratulations.

This year was doubly special for our winners as their achievements were recognised as the RoSPA Awards celebrated its diamond anniversary, which is a ringing endorsement of the thousands of businesses and organisations that have committed to continuous improvement in accident and ill-health prevention  "

Our CEO, Terry Dean, commented,

" nothing is more important than healthy and safety so to win this award is a true honour.  It reflects the hard work and total commitment of each and every one of our employees.  I’d like to thank them and the RoSPA for this award "
