Trakcja was honoured at the gala for the presentation of the prestigious Safe Work Leaders Cards (Karty Liderów Bezpiecznej Pracy), organised by the Central Institute for Labour Protection – National Research Institute (Centralny Instytut Ochrony Pracy – Państwowy Instytut Badawczy). The awards were presented in Białystok during the 25th annual Safe Work Leaders Forum Conference.
The Safe Work Leaders Forum (Forum Liderów Bezpiecznej Pracy), established as early as 1998, admits enterprises and organisations for which concern for the health and safety of employees is a natural, inseparable element of everyday business activity. Currently the Leaders Forum has more than 170 member enterprises, which can be held up as examples in matters relating to a culture of safe work.
Traditionally, Safe Work Leaders Cards were presented during the gala. Trakcja received the most important distinction, the Gold Safe Work Leader Card (Złota Karta Lidera Bezpiecznej Pracy), alongside such companies as KGHM Polska Miedź S.A., Grupa Azoty, and companies from the PKN Orlen and PGE S.A. groups.
“Occupational safety in the construction industry is a key issue. At Trakcja, occupational health and safety is a priority both on the construction sites we run and in our offices, and in every other place and at every other time. Care for the health and lives of our employees takes absolute precedence at every stage of the construction process, so we are pleased that our efforts in this area have been recognised.” – said Marek Kubel – Acting Director of the Department of Occupational Health and Safety, Environmental Protection and Quality Management Systems at Trakcja S.A., commenting on the distinction awarded to our company.
