BSIF Safety Award Winners Announced at Safety & Health Expo 2009 June 26th 2009 The BSIF Safety Awards promote the importance of innovation and the highest standards of excellence when it comes to improving UK occupational health and safety. The winners of this year’s awards were announced at a prestigious ceremony at Safety & Health Expo.
The entries for all the awards were judged by an independent panel of industry experts. Fergal Morris of the sponsor, 3M, presented the Awards to the winners.

It is so good to know that the high standards of our safety industry show no sign of abating, however tough the environment.
