In recognition of its exceptional achievement in maintaining a safe work environment, the National Safety Council (NSC) presented ABS with two safety awards.
The NSC is a globally recognised nonprofit organisation committed to eliminating leading causes of preventable death and injury in the workplace and on roadways. Their awards program recognises organisations and individuals who have made significant contributions to upholding the safety of their workplaces and communities.
ABS’ accomplishment
ABS has accumulated more than 15 million hours worked without a lost-time incident
The two awards celebrate ABS’ accomplishment of reaching a significant number of consecutive hours without incurring occupational injury or illness that resulted in days away from work.
Since January 2023, ABS has accumulated more than 15 million hours worked without a lost-time incident (LTI). The second award recognises six million hours worked without an LTI specific to North American operations dating back to 2021.
ABS new benchmarks
“This achievement is a testament to the dedication and hard work of ABS employees in maintaining a safe work environment across all of ABS globally,” said John McDonald, ABS President and COO.
“We are incredibly proud to receive these awards and will continue to prioritise a strong culture of safety so that ABS can strive to set new benchmarks within the industry.”
