2007 - GlaxoSmithKline
EHS award
|

|
A safety culture
improvement initiative designed by The Keil Centre and
jointly delivered with a team from GlaxoSmithKline's Irvine
site has won first place in their company's worldwide
CEO's Environment, Health and Safety Excellence Awards
This project, which has been carried out over the past
year, involved the majority of the site's 600 employees
and contractors and has resulted in many tangible benefits,
and sharing of their experience across the company and
with the wider Chemical Process Industry.
John Hunter, EHS Leader said "We chose The Keil Centre
to help us because of their reputation including relevant
publications and research articles into the subject matter.
In a relatively short period of time we have realised
many benefits in terms of observable EHS behaviours at
all levels within the site. We particularly appreciated
The Keil Centre's professionalism throughout the project,
the way in which they interacted with our staff and their
assistance to implement the programme. We recognise the
Site is now on a journey towards a more mature safety
culture - with the implementation of the EHS Behaviour
Standard in 2007 we've made a great start but realise
the need for ongoing focus and support to sustain the
benefits." |
