Highway Care has been awarded a RoSPA Gold Medal in recognition of its sixth Gold Award in a row from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA),marking an important milestone in the company’s ongoing commitment to occupational health and safety.
The RoSPA Gold Award is a prestigious accolade presented annually to organisations that demonstrate consistently high standards of occupational health and safety across their operations. The Gold Medal recognises businesses like Highway Care that have delivered SHEQ excellence for more than five consecutive years and fostered a strong, positive safety culture.
With the motto ‘accidents don’t have to happen’, RoSPA has been helping to make the world safer for 70 years. The organisation is a leading voice in health and safety, campaigning to reduce avoidable accidents, including accidents on the road and at work, and lobbying government on health and safety matters.
As a businress focused on delivering innovative solutions for a safer future, Highway Care places safety at the forefront of its operations. The RoSPA Gold Medal serves as a significant indicator of the company’s dedication to health and safety and will continue to motivate the team to strive for excellence. It complements Highway Care’s FORS (Fleet Operator Recognition Scheme) Bronze accreditation, which confirms the company is also meeting high standards of vehicle and driver safety.
Craig Jones, SHEQ Manager at Highway Care, commented:
“You would expect a company that is dedicated to road safety and road worker safety to embed health and safety best practice into its operations, but our consistent SHEQ performance is about more than policies and a corporate commitment.
“To maintain our health and safety achievements takes a team effort and a safety culture across everything we do, whether we’re in the office, the depot, or on site. I am really proud of this achievement and would like to thank every member of the team for being part of securing our RoSPA Gold Medal.”
