Interserve’s market-leading health and safety performance was endorsed at the RoSPA Occupational Health and Safety Awards on Thursday 15th May. For an unprecedented third consecutive year, Interserve won the Facilities Management Sector Award, which recognises the health and safety performance of the company’s overall services provision, while the firm’s health sector work was highly commended in the same category.

Interserve received 13 Gold Awards and 3 Silver Awards for its impressive health and safety performance across a variety of contracts and market sectors throughout the UK. One of these was a joint award with University College London Hospital which highlights how Interserve works in partnership with its clients. Interserve Defence Ltd won the prestigious Presidents Award which is given to organisations that have won 10-14 consecutive Gold Awards, while Interserve Engineering Services Ltd and Interserve Technical Services both won Gold Medal Awards for achieving 5-9 consecutive Gold Awards. Bruce Melizan, Executive Director, Interserve commented: “It’s fantastic to be the first company to complete a hat-trick of consecutive FM Sector Awards. Health and safety performance is a core component of our client offering and for RoSPA to recognise our success in this area is a great independent endorsement of the hard work we’ve put in.”
