Sisk & Sisk Rail win prestigious RoSPA awards for their commitment to occupational heath and safety

John Sisk & Son Ltd (Sisk) and Sisk Rail, which together form one of the largest construction groups in the UK and Ireland, have received coveted RoSPA awards for their excellence in health and safety throughout 2009.

Sisk has been awarded the RoSPA Gold Medal Award in recognition of their standards in health and safety last year as well as its consistency over the last five years in winning the Gold award.

Sisk Rail, which provides civil engineering services to the rail industry, has been awarded the RoSPA Gold award for the second year running in recognition of their high standards of Health and Safety during 2009.

The awards were collected in May.

James Meredith, Company Safety, Quality & Environmental Manager, Sisk commented:

“The safety of our people, our clients and all other individuals involved in our projects is paramount to how we operate. These awards are testament to Sisk operating a zero tolerance approach to poor Health and Safety supplemented with innovative solutions to Health and Safety issues.

“However, we will not be complacent and will continue to redouble our efforts together with our subcontractors to ensure that we continue our dedication to improving performance in Health and Safety.”
