SIG Awarded the RoSPA Silver Award for Occupational Heath and Safety

SIG is proud to have been awarded the RoSPA Silver Award for Occupational Health and Safety in the UK. The RoSPA Awards scheme is not only about reducing the number of accidents and cases of ill-health at work; it also encourages organisations to develop robust health and safety management systems.

David Rawlins, RoSPA’s awards manager, said: “SIG Plc has shown a commitment to protecting the health and well-being of its employees and others. Organisations which do this deserve to have such dedication recognised and that’s where the RoSPA awards come in. As well as there being clear ethical reasons and legal requirements for good health and safety management, this is also a strong business case. RoSPA is delighted to publicly honour organisations which have demonstrated their work to improve performance in this sphere.”

Kevin Moore, SIG’s Health Safety and Environment Manager, said: “SIG is very proud to receive the Silver Award for Occupational Health and Safety. This is a major recognition of the continuous improvements made since the achievement of the OHSAS 18001 Occupational Health and Safety Management system accreditation in 2006; and to achieve the Silver standard at the first time of applying reflects on the hard work and cooperation between the HS&E team and managers at all levels across the group.”
