I am very pleased to have this opportunity to send my congratulations to all of the organisations being presented with an International Safety Award today.

The British Safety Council plays an important role promoting health, safety and environmental best practice, and these awards - now in their 51st year - bring well deserved recognition to those organisations that set the standard and lead the way.

In these difficult times, it is vital that health and safety should not be seen as a cost to cut but as a crucial part of a well-run business that delivers benefits to organisations, employees and the economy alike.

I am confident that the Health & Safety Executive's new strategy for Britain's workplaces - which underlines the need for a common sense, proportionate approach to risk at the same time as emphasising the importance of personal responsibility - will assist the British Safety Council in the valuable work they do.

So once again, I would like to congratulate the Council and all those organisations who have received an award for the high standards of health and safety they uphold.

Rt. Hon. Gordon Brown,
Prime Minister

Ed. comment:

CDM2007.org recognise the importance for organisations to strive to be "world class" and demonstrate their commitment.  The M-CDM-C register is clear testimony for public service teams across the UK to demonstrate their level of training expertise in the essential knowledge of their duty under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations.

An organisation with well trained team who understand CDM knowledge is more likely to have other associated cultural qualities essential to make a real difference to safety
