\u201cWoodward Group feels incredibly humbled after being awarded the Pledge 2019 Contractors Award\u00a0which we had the pleasure of receiving from the established author\u00a0and public speaker, Bonita Norris. The experienced mountaineer who gave an inspiring speech also held\u00a0the title of the youngest British woman to reach the summit of Mount Everest till May 2012.\u00a0We were given this award specifically for our dedication to Health and Safety\u00a0during the Ibstock Brick PLC LED Lighting Project<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Ceramic Industry Health and Safety Pledge is an industry-wide commitment to engage in a process of continuous improvement in health and safety, which has been running for over 15 years. The programme was set up as a direct response by the industry to the then Government\u2019s challenge to the industry as a whole to \u201crevitalise\u201d its health and safety performance. Now in its fourth phase, \u201cThe Pledge\u201d has involved the industry working alongside the Health and Safety Executive and the trade unions in a truly collaborative effort.<\/p>\n

Health and safety is an industry that has seen huge change over the last decade. Ensuring that we are at the forefront has always been a major priority of ours. This award is a brilliant achievement that we feel incredibly grateful for and proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n
