Health, Safety & Wellbeing Initiative of the Year

This category seeks to recognise project teams that understand the importance of creating a safe and healthy working environment.

Judges will be particularly keen to see examples of initiatives that tackle mental health. Judges will be looking for project teams that have:

• Demonstrated a clear understanding of how this initiative could improve health, safety and wellbeing performance on this project
• Actively rolled out the initiative, developed or tailored specifically for this project
• Clear evidence of the impact of this initiative
• Demonstrated how their initiative is cutting edge and is leading the field in this area
• The potential to showcase the UK construction industry through this initiative

The projects this initiative is being deployed on does not have to be complete; what is required is evidence that the project is tackling the specific initiative in a new and innovative way and that its  positive impact can be measured or quantified.

Because projects may not be complete, shortlisted candidates will be interviewed by a panel of our judges, selected for their expertise in this area.
