At Ringway Jacobs we pride ourselves on our commitment to upholding the highest standards of health and safety in everything we do, so we are absolutely delighted that our team at Cheshire East Highways has won a prestigious RoSPA Gold Medal (8 consecutive Golds) Award! 

The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) Awards, now in its 69th year, is the world’s largest health and safety awards programme, recognising those organisations and individuals who have set the highest standards in accident prevention. 

Whether seeking non-competitive excellence recognition or entering for a competitive award across 20 industry sectors, each RoSPA Award entrant is assessed against rigorous criteria, making Ringway Jacobs – Cheshire East Highways a world leader in shaping safer, healthier workplaces.

Phil Horton, Managing Director of Ringway Jacobs, said: “We’re thrilled that our colleagues in our Cheshire East Highways Contract have been awarded the RoSPA Gold Medal for the eighth consecutive year.  We pride ourselves on our commitment to the highest standards of health and safety in all that we do, and we are delighted to have been recognised with this prestigious award.”

Julia Small, RoSPA’s Growth Director, said: “Ringway Jacobs – Cheshire East Highways should be proud of the hard work and commitment to keeping people safe that has resulted in a RoSPA Award, which honours those organisations who have achieved the highest standards in health and safety in the workplace. 

RoSPA regards Ringway Jacobs – Cheshire East Highways as a strong example of the importance of making accident prevention central to any successful organisation, not just for the benefit of employees, customers and clients, but also society as a whole.”

Sponsored by the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health (NEBOSH), 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 the health and safety industry.

Dee Arp, NEBOSH Chief Quality Officer and the Head Judge of the RoSPA Awards, said: “NEBOSH is delighted to be the headline sponsor of the RoSPA Awards. Recognising excellence in health and safety is essential to ensure we celebrate achievement, but it is also about reinforcing a culture of care, accountability and continuous improvement. These awards serve as a powerful reminder that employee safety and wellbeing transcends borders and looking after our people, so they can go home safe, healthy and happy every day, also drives sustainable success and resilience.”
