The Gold Medal Award is presented to those organisations who have achieved five to nine consecutive RoSPA Gold Awards. VolkerHighways has won Gold Awards for nine consecutive years, earning them Gold Medal Awards for the last four years.

The awards recognise achievements in health and safety management systems, including practices such as leadership and workforce involvement, and acknowledges the business’ health and safety performance throughout 2018.

Jason Convey, senior HSEQS manager for VolkerHighways said: “It’s fantastic that VolkerHighways has once again received recognition from RoSPA with this, our ninth Gold Award. The award is testament to the dedication of our teams who work hard to continuously maintain our safety performance.”

Julia Small, RoSPA’s head of qualifications, awards and events, said: “The RoSPA Awards have become the key fixture in the health and safety calendar, with new sponsors and new awards this year including the Leisure Safety Awards, the Safe@Work, Safe@Home Awards and the Inspiration Awards. Highly-respected, with almost 2,000 entrants every year, RoSPA award winners benefit from the wide-ranging rewards of improved sector reputation.”

VolkerHighways’ Gold Award will be presented at a prestigious ceremony at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole on 6 June.
