Winner

SICIM

The Health and Safety Award Adjudication Committee nominated SICIM as the winner of the 2024 IPLOCA Health and Safety Award for its "Safe Prompter Trapdoor for Welding Tents".

The reasons the Committee awarded SICIM are the following:

  • It streamlines how a top management observation can have a direct impact on operational safety,
  • It introduces a simple approach to mitigating the risks associated with working at height,
  • It addresses successfully a hazard related to typical underrated ancillary activities not always well supervised and assessed,
  • It demonstrates a clear and measurable reduction in accidents, NM, and incidents related to working at height,
  • It has a practical design, making it easy to implement and integrate into existing systems.

Runners-up

In recognition of its commitment to safety, the committtee named CATERPILLAR for its "Seatbelt Reminder System".

MAX STREICHER
