Good to Go Safety are proud to be shortlisted for this year's BSIF Safety Solution Award; these awards recognise major improvements in occupational safety created in 2017.
The awards are based upon submitted case studies of activities which have generated enhancements to occupational safety. These may be based upon a new service, a particular customer’s safety record or a training project that has enhanced or changed the users’ safety culture.
Past winners, coming from a wide range of industries and services, have been as diverse as enhanced respiratory equipment fit testing, a substantial improvement in productivity plus reduced accidents in a fish farm and a specialist service to help select the most effective glove solution in any working environment.
Good to Go Safety's entry has been backed by ZF TRW in Sunderland who have used its tagging and checklist systems to help towards making their site one of the safest ZF site’s worldwide, for which they have been awarded their own safety excellence award.
In deciding which finalists should receive an award the judges will be taking account of the following criteria:
1. Has the product contributed to a genuine and quantifiable reduction in accidents / health incidents within this situation (outlined by the case study)?
2. Has the product significantly reduced total acquisition costs, whilst maintaining or enhancing safety / company performance?
3. Has the product enhanced the health and safety understanding / culture of the users, such that these are now core to working practices?
4. Has the product significantly improved the availability and usability of safety, health or related equipment?
***At least two criteria must be met.
The case study Good to Go Safety put forward has seen its shortlisted and it will include a link to the case study once the winners have been announced in April at the Safety & Health Excellence Awards.
The Safety and Health Excellence Awards, in conjunction with the BSIF, will be held at the VOX event centre at Resorts World next to the NEC on 11th April 2018.
The night will attract more than 350 guests from the safety, health, fire and security sectors and will include a sumptuous three course meal, table wine, drinks reception, live music, live entertainment and a comedy set from Rory Bremner who will then host the Awards.
