Time is running out – submit your entries for the BSIF Safety Awards 2012

The deadline for the BSIF Safety Awards 2012 is almost upon us and we urge those companies that are planning to enter to make sure they submit their entries by close of business on Wednesday 14th March 2012.

The BSIF Safety Awards 2012 are the only awards to promote the importance of product innovation and underline the highest standards of excellence within occupational health and safety. If an organisation is lucky enough to win one of the highly coveted awards, the accolade provides an excellent promotional opportunity and the chance for the company to stand out amongst the crowd.

The awards include three categories:

• Product Innovation — new and innovative products that contribute to improvements in occupational safety and health
• Service — award for companies in the safety field offering exceptional and innovative service solutions
• Safety Excellence (open to BSIF members only) — recognises major improvements in occupational safety created in 2011/2012

All companies are entitled to enter up to three products for the Product Innovation Award as well as submitting an entry for the Service Awards and a case study for the Safety Excellence Awards. The first two awards are open to any organisation providing occupational health and safety products and services. Entry for all BSIF members is £80 + VAT, whilst non-members are charged at £160 + VAT for each entry.

David Lummis, chief executive officer at the BSIF, comments: “Year upon year, the BSIF is proud to host these highly coveted awards. It is hoped that within the three categories, there is an opportunity for every health and safety company to participate allowing them a chance to be publicly recognised within the industry. I wish all entrants the best of luck and for those companies who still want to enter remember to get your entries in asap.”

The finalists and winners will be revealed at a high profile reception held on the first day of Safety & Health Expo on 15th May 2012. For full information on how to enter and the judging criteria please visit www.bsif.co.uk.
