Now in its 64th year, the prestigious awards recognise organisations that have demonstrated commitment to occupational health, safety, and wellbeing, regardless of their size or the sector they operate within.
The International Safety Awards has been helping organisations to continually improve the health, safety, and wellbeing standards. The awards offer a global platform for recognising efforts in the areas of health, safety, and wellbeing. It helps organisations to motivate teams, prove success both within the organisation and to others in the industry, benchmark against global best practices on safety, win new clients, partners, and business opportunities, and showcase commitment to excellent health and safety standards.
Elaborating on the vision for the awards, Mike Robinson, CEO of the British Safety Council, said, "The vision of the British Safety Council is that no one should be injured or made ill through their work - anywhere in the world. Achieving this requires more than complying with legislation; it means people committed not only to health and safety but also more and more to workplace wellbeing and impelling others to follow suit. By celebrating the achievements of the winner of the 2022 International Safety Awards and over six decades of improving health and safety standards around the world, we encourage other organisations to adopt this approach and place employees' health, safety, and wellbeing at the core of their business."
