The UK’s leading rental specialist Sunbelt Rentals has been recognised by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) with a tenth consecutive RoSPA Gold Medal Award.
As a result, Sunbelt Rentals has been awarded the President’s Award. The RoSPA awards are internationally recognised and, every year, nearly 2,000 entrants strive to achieve the highest possible accolade in the UK’s longest-running H&S industry awards. The Sunbelt Rentals team has once again showcased continued commitment to the highest levels of health and safety across the organisation.
Organisations that receive RoSPA Awards are recognised as being world-leaders in health and safety practice. Achieving an impressive tenth consecutive Gold Award marks Sunbelt Rentals out as being among the very best of the best.
Sunbelt’s SHEQ Director Mark Keily said: “We don’t strive to win awards at Sunbelt; the hard work that goes into our health and safety practices is – first and foremost – for the wellbeing of our contractors, employees and customers.
“Having said that, I’m immensely proud of our reputation for safety and the rigorous processes we have in place. Winning yet another RoSPA safety award – for the tenth time in a row – is a well-deserved pat on the back for all the Sunbelt Rentals team who are committed to upholding the highest standards of safety day in and day out.
Julia Small, RoSPA’s achievements director, said: “The RoSPA Awards scheme is the longest-running of its kind in the UK, but it receives entries from organisations across the globe, making it one of the most sought-after achievement awards for health and safety worldwide.
“RoSPA is very proud of the achievements of its entrants, and with this award we recognise the best of the best, those organisations that have gone the extra mile, raising the bar for the delivery of safety in the workplace. Employees, wherever they may be, should be able to go to work safe in the knowledge that they will return home unharmed and healthy at the end of every day. Our RoSPA Award winners are central to achieving this goal. By entering they are driving up standards and setting new safety benchmarks for organisations across the world. Currently, around 7 million people are directly impacted by the RoSPA Awards, but the scheme’s global influence is even wider – with nearly 2000 organisations from 46 countries represented this year. I would also particularly want to thank our main sponsor NEBOSH, the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health – for their continued support for the 16th consecutive year.”
