The Awards, which are part of the annual scheme organised by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA), celebrate achievement and commitment to raising the standards of health and safety management, recognising continuous improvement in accident and ill health prevention at work.

Declaring his delight that the company’s continued efforts have been recognised, Peter Wilkens, Space Engineering’s head of health, safety, environment and quality, said; “We take a proactive approach, both with our employees and our clients, focusing on the prevention of accidents by effective management and by ensuring that we have the correct procedures and training in place.”
