The awards, judged by representatives from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA), are a key fixture in the health and safety calendar and Stewart Milne Group’s success demonstrates the company’s ongoing commitment to raising health and safety standards.
As well as accident records, the RoSPA awards programme looks at entrants’ overarching health and safety management systems, including important practices such as strong leadership and workforce involvement. Stewart Milne Group will be presented with its Gold Award at a ceremony in Glasgow later this year.
Commenting on the award, John Slater, Stewart Milne Group managing director – Homes, said: “The prevention of accidents and the health of our employees are of the utmost importance in every aspect of our work. This Gold RoSPA award is testament to the innovative thinking behind our operations and the expertise of our health and safety leaders. Providing clients with a high quality, all-round service is our top priority and we will continue to develop our practices and policies to ensure we remain a leader in our field.”
David Rawlins, RoSPA’s awards manager, said: “RoSPA firmly believes that organisations that have demonstrated their commitment to continuous improvement in accident and ill health prevention deserve recognition. Stewart Milne Group has shown that it is committed to striving for such continuous improvement and we are delighted to honour it through the presentation of an award.”
