EUsalt Safety Award

Every year since 2016, EUsalt is rewarding members that show excellence in the area of ‎health and safety at work. The aims of the EUsalt Safety Award are:‎

  • to recognise members’ commitment and innovative initiatives regarding health ‎and safety at the workplace ‎
  • to foster safety innovation in the salt sector by providing a platform to showcase ‎best practice models for the industry

Projects put forward by members may concern any aspect of safety inside or outside the ‎company, including workers’ safety, environmental or road safety, but also safety ‎leadership and stewardship towards workers or communities.‎

The participating projects are presented at the annual EUsalt conference and the winner ‎is announced at the end of the event. The EUsalt trophy is a salt carving created by Irish ‎artist Ruth E Lyons. ‎

Evaluation

‎Impact, innovation and practicality are the criteria against which the participating ‎projects are evaluated.‎

The assessment is carried out in two phases. In a first phase, external judges together ‎with the EUsalt Board of Directors and the members of the EUsalt Health & Safety ‎Committee assess the written projects. In a second phase, the participants in the ‎EUsalt conference are given the opportunity to vote following the presentation of the ‎projects.‎
