30 Apr 2015 Laidlaw Attains ROSPA Gold Award
Laidlaw Interiors Group has had its approach to the prevention of accidents and ill health recognised in the RoSPA Occupational Health and Safety Awards 2015 and will receive a Gold award at the RoSPA award ceremony on 15 July 2015.
The RoSPA Occupational Health and Safety Awards scheme is the biggest and longest running programme of its kind in the UK. It recognises commitment to accident and ill health prevention and is open to businesses and organisations of all types and sizes across the UK and overseas. The scheme does not just look at accident records but also entrants’ overarching health and safety management systems including important practices such as strong leadership and workforce involvement.
The majority of RoSPA’s awards are non-competitive and mark achievement at merit, bronze, silver and gold levels. Organisations maintaining high standards can achieve gold medals, president’s awards and orders of distinction.
Gary Waller, Group Health, Safety, Environmental & Quality Manager, said
“The company as a whole has shown its class, to be able to gain a gold award in this high profile awards scheme and is a massive achievement for a company of this size. This has only been possible through the dedication and hard work carried out by the HS&E team, employees and management who’s partnership in continually improving occupational health and safety standards across the business is key to a productive, healthy and safe workplace for all.”
