Sir George Earle Trophy – Getting into Contention
The prestigious Sir George Earle Trophy is widely regarded as the UK’s premier award recognising outstanding health and safety management performance. RoSPA Industry Sector Award winners must all demonstrate excellence, but in selecting the finalists to compete for the Trophy from among the leading Sector Award winners, the Adjudication Panel will look for entries that have innovative and unique elements.
Typically these will be aspects that give rise to ‘health and safety pride’, as probed by Key Performance Question 10. Some examples might include evidence of:
- Outstanding director leadership on health and safety
- Innovative approaches to workforce involvement
- ‘Joined up’ working between the organisation’s different health, safety, environment and HR professionals
- Occupational health and well-being initiatives
- Sharing and extending occupational health and safety expertise through supply chains etc
- Novel solutions for occupational health and safety problems
