UK’s safest housebuilders honoured
NHBC has announced the winners of the first round of its annual Health and Safety Awards; the UK’s only awards scheme to honour the safest homebuilders. Every year several thousand construction
workers are injured while working. Through effective management of working areas and access routes many of these could be avoided. The matter of health, safety and environment (HSE) continues to be one of the top priorities in housebuilding. The NHBC Health and Safety Awards
are designed to recognise and reward the very best in health and safety, as well as helping to drive up safety standards in the industry by showcasing best practice. A total of 56 site managers have been
awarded Commended status for their sites and will now go on to compete for the Highly Commended and National titles. The winners are to be announced at a gala event on 7 July. All of the competing sites have been visited by NHBC Health and Safety advisors and were scored against the highly stringent health and safety standards set for the competition.
