The Sovini Group has been awarded the internationally-recognised award for demonstrating high health and safety standards, achieving Gold status for the seventh consecutive year.
Organisations receiving a RoSPA Award are recognised as being world-leaders in health and safety practice. Every year, nearly 2,000 entrants vie to achieve the highest possible accolade in what is the UK’s longest-running health and safety industry awards.
“The health and safety of our staff, contractors, customers and the communities we serve has always been paramount. We are extremely proud of our long standing health and safety record, and to be recognised once again as a RoSPA Gold award winner is a great achievement. Our high health and safety standards put us in a strong starting position to quickly react, respond and adapt to the unprecedented demands from the beginning of the pandemic. To be awarded the Gold standard again in the current operating environment is fantastic,” said Phil Hutchinson, Operations Director – Assets and Compliance, The Sovini Group.
Julia Small, RoSPA’s Achievements Director, commented: “The RoSPA Awards scheme is the longest-running of its kind in the UK, but it receives entries from organisations across the globe, making it one of the most sought-after achievement awards for health and safety worldwide.
“RoSPA is very proud of the achievements of its entrants, and with this award we recognise the best of the best, those organisations that have gone the extra mile, raising the bar for the delivery of safety in the workplace. Employees, wherever they may be should be able to go to work safe in the knowledge that they will return home unharmed and healthy at the end of every day. Our RoSPA Award winners are central to achieving this goal. By entering they are driving up standards and setting new safety benchmarks for organisations across the world. Currently, around seven million people are directly impacted by the RoSPA Awards, but the scheme’s global influence is even wider — with nearly 2,000 organisations from 46 countries represented this year. I would also particularly want to thank our main sponsor NEBOSH, the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health — for their continued support for the 16th consecutive year.”
