WHC Hire Claims Internationally Recognized Gold Medal Award for Health & Safety.

WHC Hire Services is proud to announce its receipt of a Gold Medal for 5 consecutive years of outstanding health and safety practice, from internationally recognised RoSPA.

The RoSPA Awards scheme is the longest-running of its kind in the UK, and receives entries from organisations across the globe, making it one of the most sought-after achievement awards for health and safety worldwide. Currently, around 7million people are directly impacted by the RoSPA Awards, but the scheme’s global influence is even wider – with nearly 2,000 organisations from 50 countries represented this year.

The majority of awards are non-competitive and mark achievement at merit, bronze, silver and gold levels. Gold medals, president’s awards, orders of distinction and the Patron’s Award are presented to organisations sustaining the high standards of the gold level over consecutive years.

MD James Clutterbuck said, “it is a true honour to be internationally recognised by an organisation such as RoSPA once again. Receiving a Gold Medal award for five consecutive years for the highest standards of health and safety, is truly a tribute to what we standard for here at WHC. The safety of our staff customers and contractors has, and always will remain our first priority.”

Julia Small, RoSPA’s Achievements Director, said: “This is a fantastic and well-deserved accomplishment. All our award entrants demonstrate their unwavering commitment and passion for keeping people safe at work. By receiving this recognition WHC Hire Services join like-minded businesses and organisations worldwide, who represent the very best in their approach to Health and Safety. I would like to add my personal thanks for all the work that it has taken to secure this well-deserved award – congratulations to all those involved, who champion and drive up Health and Safety standards every day. You are a fantastic example to others in your sector.”

WHC Hire will be presented with their gold medal at RoSPA’s award ceremonies in 2022.
