The President’s Award is presented to those organisations who have achieved ten to 14 consecutive RoSPA Gold Awards.

The annual scheme, run by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) Health and Safety Awards, recognises achievements in health and safety management systems, including practices such as leadership and workforce involvement. The awards acknowledge VolkerHighways’ health and safety performance throughout 2019.

Jason Convey, VolkerHighways’ senior HSEQS manager, said: “I am thrilled that VolkerHighways has again been recognised with a tenth Gold Award, which has meant we have received the President's Award. Our teams work hard to continually maintain high levels of safety across our contracts and the award is a testament to their commitment. We look forward collecting this great award later this year.”

Julia Small, RoSPA’s head of qualifications, awards and events, said: “RoSPA wants every employee, wherever they are, to work safe in the knowledge that they will be going home unharmed and healthy at the end of every day. The RoSPA Award winners are vital to help achieve this goal, as by entering they are driving up standards and setting new benchmarks for organisations everywhere.”
