David Rawlins, RoSPA's awards manager said,
"The RoSPA Awards encourage the raising of occupational health and safety standards across the board. Organisations that receive this recognition for their health and safety management systems, such as Ransomes Jacobsen, contribute to collectively raising the bar for other organisations to aspire to, and we offer them our congratulations."
Gemma Cosby, Ransomes Jacobsen's EHS Manager, added,
"This is another fantastic achievement; two consecutive years of winning the Gold award is an amazing result - this really does reflect the excellent work being done on site by all our employees with regard to safety and health."
