Every year Courtley Health & Safety chooses one organisation to be presented with its prestigious Courtley Health & Safety Award. It is presented to the company that has shown outstanding commitment to raising standards of workplace safety and has a positive health and safety culture.
The award not only recognises the effort made over the last 12 months but is also a small way for Courtley Health & Safety to thank them for making the world a safer place.
2018 HEALTH & SAFETY AWARD WINNER
In 2018 the Health & Safety Award was given to Spectrum Drylining Ltd. Spectrum Drylining Ltd is a company based in the North West who specialise in providing bespoke contracting services. This includes all areas of interior fit-outs, from metal stud partitioning to suspended ceilings.
On many of the projects Spectrum work on, they are employed as a specialist contractor. This means collaboration with many different companies each of whom have their own different standards for managing on-site health and safety.
As an organisation, Spectrum is constantly engaged with Courtley and always ensure their employees are trained to the latest nationally recognised standards through the CITB and other well-known bodies. This means Spectrum can ensure best practices are followed on any projects they are involved with.

Spectrum has demonstrated a strong commitment to ensuring competence and excellence across all levels of the organisation. A large part of this has been through increased training of their workforce.
During these training sessions, delegates from Spectrum always engage well and attempt to make positive contributions to the learning experience.
