Vena Energy, Asia-Pacific’s leading renewable energy company, announced today that it has received the esteemed RoSPA Award from The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents. This accolade underscores the company’s unwavering commitment to ensuring the physical and mental well-being and safety of its workforce, and a testament to Vena Energy’s relentless efforts in the development and implementation of its HSSE (health, safety, security, and environment) policies and protocols. The recognition is especially noteworthy given that the countries Taiwan, Indonesia, and the Philippines were individually acknowledged and rewarded for their safety excellence.
Furthermore, Vena Energy has consistently prioritized investment in the occupational health and safety (OHS) training of its employees, thereby enhancing their skill set. By proactively reaching out and collaborating with both internal stakeholders and external contractors, the company ensures a holistic approach to HSSE, aligning policies, standards, and procedures throughout its network.
“Our employees are the driving force of our corporate mission to accelerate the energy transition in the Asia-Pacific region, and their health and safety is our top priority,” said Nitin Apte, CEO of Vena Energy. “We are committed to our ‘Zero Harm Vision’ where employees are encouraged to identify and report potentially unsafe behaviours or conditions and empowered with the authority to stop operations in the event of hazardous situations in the office or at the project sites. We share this accolade with all our employees, and we will continue to engage with our partners and contractors to enhance our operational health and safety protocols and procedures.”
“Accidents at work and work-related ill health don’t just have huge financial implications or cause major disruption – they significantly impact an individual’s quality of life. That’s why good safety performance deserves to be recognised and rewarded,” said Julia Small, RoSPA’s Achievements Director. “We are thrilled that Vena Energy has won a RoSPA Award and would like to congratulate them on showing an unwavering commitment to keeping their employees, clients, and customers safe from accidental harm and injury.”
The RoSPA Health and Safety Awards is the largest occupational health and safety awards programme in the UK. Now into its 67th year, the Awards have almost 2,000 entries every year, covering nearly 50 countries and a reach of over seven million employees. The programme recognises organisations’ commitment to continuous improvement in the prevention of accidents and ill health at work, looking at entrants’ overarching health and safety management systems, including practices such as leadership and workforce involvement.
