“Sincerest congratulations to all organisations, individuals and teams that have won a prestigious International Safety Award. Our winners have clearly made substantial and ongoing efforts to protect and improve the health, safety and wellbeing of everyone in their organisations. All the winners, and those who were shortlisted, have gone the extra mile in terms of dedicating additional time, resources and commitment to ensuring their work, teams and workplaces remained healthy and safe during 2024. I would also like to say thank you to all the organisations who took time to apply for these awards and to our panel of judges who volunteered to adjudicate them.
“It is our vision at the British Safety Council that no-one should be injured or made ill through their work – anywhere in the world. By sharing the achievements of the winners of these awards, we can inspire other employers everywhere to follow their lead and give workers’ health, safety and wellbeing the priority it rightly deserves.
