Britain’s leading plant, tool and equipment rental company has been recognised for its outstanding health and safety performance throughout 2018.<\/p>\n

For the eighth consecutive year, A-Plant has been awarded Gold at the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents’ (RoSPA) Health and Safety Awards.<\/p>\n

The RoSPA Awards scheme, which receives entries from organisations around the world, recognises achievement in health and safety management systems, including practices such as leadership and workforce involvement.<\/p>\n

To maintain its Gold Standard for an eighth year in a row, A-Plant’s health and safety management systems were put under rigorous scrutiny by RoSPA and Douglas McLuckie, A-Plant’s Director of Risk Management, said the result demonstrates the company’s commitment to maintaining an excellent health and safety record.<\/p>\n

He said: “We are extremely proud to have received the highest possible standard for the eighth consecutive year.<\/p>\n

“Health and safety is\u00a0of paramount importance at A-Plant and we are committed to continually setting new standards for our employers, partners and the industries in which we operate.<\/p>\n

“We have an excellent track record for our health and safety performance from a wide range of industry bodies and have even introduced a number of company-wide health and safety initiatives to encourage employees to reflect on safe working practices and undertake extra safety training.<\/p>\n

“Last year, our annual Safety Week shined a light on mental health in the workplace and the company’s Work Safe Home Safe campaign, continued to encourage teams to take personal responsibility for the way they work.”<\/p>\n

A-Plant will be presented with the award during RoSPA’s Health and Safety Awards ceremony in Birmingham on 10th May 2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
