The importance of site safety can of course not be stressed enough.

As a business we go to great lengths to ensure that the correct processes and controls are put in place, trained out and continuously reviewed but that approach still takes the vigilance and care of colleagues to keep everyone safe – it is why we have the Talk Safe Programme in place.

Sometimes when the panel are reviewing all the nominations received in a quarter, some stand out as brilliant examples of a good job done well – and that is the case when it came to Joanne Lamberti.

With 4 separate nominations, we read with interest how Jo had planned the recent Pathways Roadshow at Cardiff. Now, Jo might be the on-site trainer but we have no douby that the success of the sessions was down to Jo going very much above and beyond her day job!

Arranging for 118 operational colleagues to attend the Roadshow was no mean feat, but hearing that those colleagues all arrived fully briefed, relaxed and properly set up to get the most from the session was fantastic!

Andy Brown was nominated for his efforts to fully support the launch of People Gateway, the UK HRIS platform. Far beyond just taking a technical lead, Andy took the time (and care) to get fully involved in the wider success of the project We often talk about the importance not just of what people do but how they do it and Andy’s nominations for an award stood out to the panel because that sense of his willingness to roll up his sleeves and help really stood out A positive can-do attitude really goes a long way!

Switching the production of Branston Beans was no mean feat – but it was a challenge taken on (and smashed) by Michel Polignone, Alan Marshall, Nicoletta Suriano and Angharad Pugh recently. As a collaborative cross functional team, they took full ownership of what was a very complex project and approached the challenge positively and collaboratively. A brilliant job done very well!

In what was recognised to be a complex and complicated ask, Serena Sorbello, Faye Spellman and Ewa Ibbitt recently compiled a comprehensive soy and palm oil usage data report. Working methodically, they designed and implemented new ways of working and introduced new systems to ensure the accuracy of the data and the ease of data interpretation.
