Actavo has been awarded three awards from the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents.

Actavo has announced that it has secured three prestigious, internationally recognised awards in recognition of its work in the area of health and safety, at the annual Health and Safety Awards organised by the Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) in the UK.

All three RoSPA awards recognise Actavo for its long-term achievements in the area of health and safety.

Actavo Industrial Solutions UK and Actavo Hire & Sales UK have been awarded the RoSPA Order of Distinction Award following 17 consecutive years of achieving Gold Awards.

Actavo Network & In-Home was awarded the RoSPA President’s Award, which recognises the company’s achievement of winning the Gold Award for 10 consecutive years, and Actavo Group was awarded the RoSPA Fleet Safety Gold Medal, in recognition of five consecutive years of Gold Awards in this category.

The annual awards are categorised by different levels of achievement: Merit, Bronze, Silver and Gold, as well as long-term awards that recognise companies for achieving Gold Awards for multiple consecutive years.

Organisations receiving a RoSPA Award are recognised as being world-leaders in health and safety practice. Every year, nearly 2,000 entrants vie to achieve the highest possible accolade in what is the UK’s longest-running health and safety industry awards.
