Foster Wheeler AG has announced that the UK subsidiary of its Global Engineering and Construction Group has been awarded, for the fourth year running, the prestigious Order of Distinction Award for Occupational Health and Safety by the UK’s Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA), and also its eighteenth consecutive RoSPA Gold Award for outstanding health and safety performance on UK and international projects. The Order of Distinction is RoSPA’s highest achievement award and is only presented to those companies which have attained at least 15 consecutive RoSPA Gold Awards for outstanding health and safety performance on projects around the world. RoSPA, a safety charity, launched its awards program 55 years ago. The scheme looks not only at accident records, but also entrants’ overarching health and safety management systems, including important practices such as strong leadership and workforce involvement.
