We are proud to announce that WSP Middle East’s relentless commitment to creating safer working environments has received global recognition by scooping three Health and Safety Awards by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA).

Our successful award wins include:

·        The RoSPA Gold Award for showcasing best-in-class health and safety performance.

·        The RoSPA Initiative of The Year - Middle East Award for our ‘’Stop the Drop’ campaign.

·        The RoSPA Distinguished Service Award for the Middle East

The RoSPA Distinguished Service Award was granted to Regional HSE Manager, Lino Yohannan for his ongoing dedication to enhancing the health and safety culture, not only within the organisation but also across the industry.

These internationally recognised awards are an impressive achievement for our business and are testament to our relentless drive to demonstrate world-class health and safety standards, well-developed occupational health and safety management systems and culture, outstanding control of risk, and very low levels of error, harm and loss

Commenting on the triple award win, Simon Cutts, WSP Middle East’s Director of Health, Safety & Environment, said :

“The RoSPA Gold Awards are one of the most prestigious HSE schemes in the world, which is why WSP is honoured to once again be recognised for its efforts to do better by its people. Being able to demonstrate HSE excellence year-on-year is no mean feat; this success helps us to showcase how WSP’s forward-looking focus on continual improvement is raising the bar for how our industry can place the health, safety, and wellbeing of our people at the forefront of everything we do.”

 
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 H&S industry awards.

The selection process for RoSPA awards consists of an independent review of policies, procedures and performance, which is conducted by a panel of industry experts and judged accordingly.

Julia Small, RoSPA’s Achievements Director, said: “Accidents at work and work-related ill health don’t just have huge financial implications or cause major disruption – they significantly impact an individual’s quality of life. That’s why good safety performance deserves to be recognised and rewarded.

“We are thrilled that WSP Middle East has won three RoSPA Awards and would like to congratulate them on showing an unwavering commitment to keeping their employees, clients and customers safe from accidental harm and injury.”
