The business's employees have worked two years, eight months, and 27 days without any lost time injury, which is a measure of monitoring incidents that result in an employee missing work due to an injury or accident in the workplace.
Manufacturing engineering is traditionally a hazardous environment where heavy equipment and machinery parts are part of daily operations. This milestone covers Sandvik Mobile Crushers & Screens' (SMCS) global operations, including offices, fabrication sites, warehouses and workshops in the UK, USA and India.
SMCS says that careful consideration of hazards is given throughout its business, coupled with a commitment to embed a health and safety culture throughout - from SMCS' Centre of Excellence, Ballygawley, Northern Ireland, to those who work on customer sites and everyone in-between.
The business says it has multiple schemes in place to ensure safety remains at the heart of its operations, including observation systems, regular training, toolbox talks and health and safety focus campaigns.
Andy McCullock, president SMCS, said: 'I would like to express my thanks to each and every member of the team, without whose individual contributions it would not have been possible to achieve this milestone. We will continue to work together for 'Zero Harm'.
"At a time where our health and wellbeing are top priority, it is fantastic to know that our teams have achieved such a positive milestone. Congratulations to all our colleagues for keeping each other, our customers, and the machinery we support safe. What a great milestone to accomplish in 2021!"
