Clark Contracts has been awarded a sixth consecutive Order of Distinction in the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) Health and Safety Awards 2026.

Alongside this achievement, the company has earned its 20th Gold Award, highlighting its sustained commitment to the safety of its employees, clients, customers, and contractors. This latest recognition serves as a testament to the company’s robust health and safety systems, rigorous occupational health practices, and its consistent ability to meet stringent safety requirements.

The 2026 awards represent a significant milestone, marking the 70th anniversary of the RoSPA programme. Originally a small event designed to recognise UK-based organisations prioritising worker safety, it has evolved into a leading global health and safety awards initiative, attracting 2,000 entries from nearly 60 countries this year.

The application process is designed to help entrants enhance their standards by fostering reflective practice, which supports continuing professional development (CPD) and emphasises the importance of ongoing learning to reduce workplace incidents. By receiving this award, Clark Contracts continues a legacy of organisations dedicated to the protection of workers and the public.
