Mike Dale, Managing Director of Crown Highways said:
“We are very pleased to be a awarded the RoSPA Gold award, this is testament to the improvements we have made to our health & safety practices throughout the Crown Highways business. In 2018 we were awarded a Silver award so we can show a marked improvement over the last 12 months, this improvement has come through our continued work within Crown and the wider supply chain community. The award submission was managed by our Health & Safety Manager Pete Benton who deserves all the credit for putting the awarded winning submission together.”
Julia Small, RoSPA’s head of qualifications, awards and events, said: “The RoSPA Awards have become the key fixture in the health and safety calendar with new sponsors and new awards this year including the Leisure Safety Awards, the Safe@Work Safe@Home Award and the Inspiration Awards. Highly-respected, with almost 2,000 entrants every year, RoSPA award winners benefit from the wide-ranging rewards of improved sector reputation.”
