On 10 July 2016 CEMEX Dry Silo Mortar Business reached the notable landmark of 10 years LTI free.

To celebrate and build on this event a safety training and team meeting event was held at Southam on 15th July 2016.  The training was attended by Service Engineers, Braintree Plant staff, Distribution staff, along with Technicians from the Technical Centre and 2 contractors from N&K Transport  with whom we work very closely at Dove Holes. The training was hosted by Andy Bright and current performance was reviewed along with sessions on driving safely, use of mobile phones and safety on customer sites.

The DSM business has made significant progress in improving safety and this is reflected in the awards the business has received over the last twelve months, including Highly Commended certificate at the MPA Safety Awards, together with an Individual Winner for Safety Leadership recognising the work of Bill Buckley. The business also received Best In section and reached the final 2 in the recent UK Safety Sword awards.

Steve Crompton, Director of the DSM Business, commented: “Andy Bright has shown great leadership in driving up safety standards throughout the DSM Business and his Team have shown tremendous commitment to ensure that we manufacture and deliver our product in the safest possible way. As we know, safety has no memory but we are committed to build on the 10 year LTI milestone and continue to improve performance. I would like to thank all the members of the DSM Team who have made these achievements possible.”
