Werner, manufacturer of ladders and access equipment, is marking World Day for Safety and Health at Work (April 28) by celebrating five years without a reportable accident across its two UK manufacturing sites.
The milestone spans its facilities in Maldon, Essex and Burton-on-Trent, and comes during a period of significant investment and operational development in its UK manufacturing capabilities.
Managing director at Werner UK, Justin White, said: “Reaching five years without a reportable accident is a major achievement for our teams, particularly when considering the scale of change we’ve delivered across both sites.
“This five-year milestone is reflective of Werner’s approach to safety culture, where it’s viewed as more than just a compliance exercise. Instead, safety is a core pillar that underpins quite literally everything we do.”
