The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) has unveiled a COVID Workplace Champion scheme seeking to recognise people who have continually gone above and beyond to keep their colleagues safe during the pandemic
The nominations are being sought to recognise individuals who have made their workplaces safe while protecting thousands of people and their families.
RoSPA, known for its health and safety awards which impact on the working lives of more than seven million employees, is now seeking to highlight the contributions of those who have used their expertise, passion and unwavering commitment to help limit the transmission of COVID in workplaces.
RoSPA’s CEO Errol Taylor said, “We know only too well the huge effort that has been required to keep workplaces functioning over the past 18 months. We also realise that this vital work must continue for the foreseeable future. Importantly, for each and every one of us, there are COVID Workplace Champions out there and this recognition scheme is for them. We simply want to say thank you, and keep up the great work!
“All businesses and organisations, big or small, have people who are working tirelessly to keep us safe - and often do so in the background and with little or no recognition. This is why we want to say to them: we see you; and we want to celebrate you.”
Anyone can nominate a colleague or someone in their professional network, who they think deserves praise for keeping employees COVID safe during the pandemic. It is completely free of charge to nominate someone and RoSPA welcomes submissions from anywhere in the world. The successful nominees will receive a certificate and will be invited to attend a celebratory event in 2022.
