UK Businesses Selected for 2023 Global H&S Awards

Each year Cemex celebrates global health & safety success at the Global Health & Safety Awards ceremony. This acts as a powerful way to raise the profile of health and safety within the company and recognises businesses and countries that have built and reinforced their health and safety culture to achieve the best and most improved health and safety performance, taking into account the activities of employees and contractors.

The Program is designed to stimulate interest and participation in incident prevention and to incentivise leaders and their teams to maintain a safe and healthy workplace.

The awards programme has different awards categories:

  • The ’Zero4Life Contribution Award’:
  • Best and Most improved performance in the business sectors
  • 20 ‘Contractor Management Awards’ and 20 ‘Fit4Life Contribution Awards’ will be available

Ahead of this year’s global awards ceremony we are delighted to announce the UK business areas selected by the UK Health and Safety Committee to represent our Operations in the Best Performance category for their relevant Sector.

  • Cement (Grinding Plants)                              Tilbury
  • Concrete                                                        Readymix UK
  • Aggregates                                                    Marine
  • Urbanisation Solutions                                  Asphalt UK
  • Supply Chain Road Transportation               UK Supply Chain Road

This is testament to the commitment that these teams invest in looking after the wellbeing and safety of each other and their colleagues. Thank you for all your efforts and well done!

In addition to these Sector Award entries, all operations are encouraged to liaise with their local Health & Safety teams to identify any entries to the ‘Fit4Life Contribution Awards’ for Health and Wellbeing activities, and the Contractor Management Good Practices Awards.  Entries for these Awards are straight forward (one slide), and it would be great to get recognition for local initiatives in these areas.

The closing date for applications is 12th February 2024.  You can find two entry forms for both categories at the end of this document and here.
