Ogilvie Construction has once again demonstrated its unwavering commitment to health and safety, securing the prestigious RoSPA President's Award. This marks the 11th consecutive year that the company has achieved the highest level of recognition in the RoSPA Awards program.

The RoSPA President's Award is a testament to Ogilvie Construction's dedication to creating a safe working environment for all employees. The company's consistent efforts to prevent accidents and injuries have earned it this esteemed accolade, which is awarded to organisations that have achieved at least 10 consecutive RoSPA Gold Awards.

The RoSPA Awards program, now in its 68th year, is the UK's largest and most influential health and safety program. It attracts thousands of entries from organisations worldwide, making it a highly competitive and respected benchmark for safety excellence.

We continue to invest in in health and safety so that everyone at Ogilvie recognises and embraces their responsibility to keep each other safe."

Julia Small, RoSPA's Achievements Director, said: "Workplace accidents don't just pose financial risks and operational disruptions; they significantly impact the quality of life for individuals. This is why acknowledging and rewarding excellent safety performance is vital.

"We congratulate Ogilvie Construction for winning a prestigious RoSPA Award and showing an unwavering commitment to keeping employees, clients and customers safe from accidental harm and injury."
