THE Mineral Products Association (MPA) is seeking entries for its 2024 Health & Safety Awards.
The organisation welcomes nominations from companies of all sizes, whether they are members or non-members of the MPA. They must be operating in the product sector represented by the trade body, so might include operators, contractors, suppliers, and other service providers.
Entries must relate to activities based in the UK, and may be made on an individual organisation or joint organisation basis.
Eligible organisations are particularly encouraged to submit an entry to one or more of the eight Topic Awards. These have been designed to cover the different stages and activities within the lifecycle of the value-added products and services provided by the mineral products industry: from the quarry face, processing, and manufacturing through to delivery at the customer’s site, a construction site or on highway.
Entry forms and briefing notes can be downloaded from the Safequarry website.
Jon Prichard, MPA chief executive, said, “The sharing of knowledge about the good practices and innovations will help us all to make our industry a safer and healthier place for everyone. It is also important to recognise the outstanding performance that individuals and organisations have made on our journey towards ‘Vision Zero’.
The awards will be presented at an online MPA health & safety event in autumn 2024.
