CWind wins Health & Safety ROSPA Gold Award third year running


CWind, a leading provider of services to the offshore wind industry, has once again won the RoSPA Occupational Health and Safety Gold Award. The Gold award in the prestigious annual scheme run by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) recognises the company’s approach and commitment to occupational health and safety, achieving high levels of compliance and ensuring above average safety performance. It not only looks at accident records, but also at the entrants’ overarching Health and Safety Management Systems, including important practices such as strong leadership and workforce involvement.

David Rawlins, RoSPA’s awards manager, said: “The RoSPA Awards encourage improvement in occupational health and safety management. Organisations that gain recognition for their health and safety management systems, such as CWind, contribute to raising standards overall and we congratulate them.”

Peter Jorgensen, CWind’s Managing Director, said: “Health and safety is fundamental to everything we do, to win this prestigious ROSPA Gold Award for a third year running is testament to the team’s concerted effort to maintain and improve our occupational safety and health systems. Knowing independent reviewers agree that our Safety, Health, Environment and Quality (SHEQ) programme is working very well, goes a long way to fuelling the enthusiasm and determination within our team.”
