"As well as there being clear ethical reasons and legal requirements for good health and safety management, there is also a strong business case. RoSPA is delighted to publicly honour organisations which have demonstrated their work to improve performance in this sphere".

David Wilson, SES Health & Safety Manager, said: "We are delighted to receive this prestigious award which demonstrates our commitment to operating robust health and safety systems and recognises the strong leadership and workforce involvement in accident and ill health prevention".
