It recognises their commitment to maintaining an excellent health and safety record and raises the bar for other organisations to aspire to. We offer them our congratulations.
“This year was doubly special for our winners as their achievements were recognised as the RoSPA Awards celebrated its diamond anniversary, which is a ringing endorsement of the thousands of businesses and organisations that have committed to continuous improvement in accident and ill-health prevention.”
Mick Ashall, Director at B&M Waste Services said: “We are very proud of our achievements and grateful for the recognition this award presents. The health and safety of our staff and the general public are of great importance and will continue to be while we as a business further ourselves.
