RPS Wins Health & Safety Award

20 October 2009

On Thursday 24th September in Castlebar, RPS were awarded the National Irish Safety Organisation (NISO) President’s Award in the Construction Category.

 

This much coveted award, sponsored by the Construction Industry Federation (CIF), is also known as the ‘Overall Construction Award’. In the past, this award has generally been awarded to large contracting firms, so RPS has broken new ground for consultants in this area. 

The award recognises our occupational health and safety record as well as our systems and procedures in the areas of design safety. Pictured at the event, from left to right are: Dermot Carey, Head of Safety Services, Construction Industry Federation (CIF); Jim Leahy, Technical Director Health & Safety, RPS; Amy Lillis, Health and Safety Officer, RPS; Dara Calleary, TD Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment with responsibility for Labour Affairs; Joan Gallagher, Health and Safety Officer, RPS; and NISO President, Pauric Corrigan
