Aluminium Bahrain B.S.C (Alba) has launched a Safety and Health campaign, ‘Safety is Driven by You’, to emphasise bottom-up safety communication as well as address challenges associated with the winter across the production processes
The campaign is being held under the directives of the chief executive officer Ali Al Baqali and will feature safety visits by Alba’s top officials, to interact with employees and contractors’ workers across the company, as well as lectures by non-supervisory employees and contractor workers on topics such as hand injuries, molten metal handling and electrical hazards.
Alba has a strong commitment to ensuring the safety and well-being of its workforce, recently recording 11 million safe working hours without Lost Time Injury (LTI). It has also become the first smelter in the GCC to attain a 4-star audit rating after completing the Five Star Occupational Health and Safety Audit conducted by the British Safety Council (BSC). This recognises Alba’s steadfast dedication and commitment to health and safety practices as well as managing risks to workers’ health, safety and wellbeing.
