“The vision of British Safety Council is that no-one should be injured or made ill through their work – anywhere in the world. Achieving this requires more than complying with legislation; it means people committed not only to health and safety but also more and more to workplace wellbeing and impelling others to follow suit.
“The long list of winners of the International Safety Awards, demonstrates that a significant number of companies recognise that effective management of health and safety risks is a business growth enabler, benefiting not just employees, but organisations and wider society. By celebrating the achievements of the 1124 winners of the 2024 International Safety Awards and over six decades of improving health and safety standards around the world, we encourage other organisations to adopt this approach and place employees’ health, safety and wellbeing at the core of their business.” “Our heartfelt congratulations to AD Construction Group.

"This is the 14th year in succession that we have won this prestigious award - but the first time we have received a distinction. I would like to thank the outstanding efforts of my SHEQ team for putting together what has been a very high-level quality submission. I would also like to acknowledge the instrumental part Davina Skinner - AD Business Development Manager played in this achievement, through her guidance and input into how we structured our submission. However, the most important and biggest heartfelt thanks and acknowledgement goes to every member of staff (including board directors) within our company who daily implement the policies and procedures we have put in place."
