2018
Recipients of Workplace Safety and Health Awards
INTRODUCTION. The annual Workplace Safety and Health (WSH) Awards recognise companies and individuals for achieving excellence in workplace safety and health. It starts from the mindset that all injuries are preventable and everyone can go home safe and healthy. This requires the commitment of all employees; from top management to the last worker. The WSH Awards Commemorative Book features some of the best WSH practices and innovations by the WSH Awards recipients. The WSH Council hopes that, through their efforts, companies and individuals will pick up useful tips to prevent accidents at work. This year, 158 award recipients will be recognised for their WSH efforts in 2017. The WSH Council congratulates all award recipients for their achievements and commitment to WSH!
