RoSPA Awards : Which Award?
Achievement Awards
These awards are non-competitive and are based on the entrant’s individual Occupational Health and Safety performance assessed against the judging criteria.
Awards are made at Gold, Silver, Bronze and Merit level, progressing to higher awards for sustained achievement: the Gold Medal (at least 5 consecutive Gold Awards), President’s Award (at least 10 consecutive Gold Awards) and the Order of Distinction (at least 15 consecutive Gold Awards).
Entrants for an Achievement Award must provide evidence of a good health and safety management system by answering the Key Performance Questions and supporting the answers with a concise portfolio of relevant documents.
Winners of Achievement Awards receive a framed certificate and are entitled to use the award logo on their organisation’s letterhead and to fly the RoSPA Awards flag.
