Thales Head of Safety wins RoSPA Guardian Angel Award

Sarah was presented with the prestigious RoSPA Guardian Angel Award during a ceremony at ExCel London on 17 June.

The award celebrates individuals who have made a demonstrable difference in the area of safety and accident prevention through their initiative, diligence, enthusiasm and commitment. Thales has seen the benefits of Sarah’s efforts in driving the safety culture, with the creation of safety leadership at several levels in the organisation, taking hazard reports from less than 100 in 2011 to over 900 being reported in 2013, and achieving an Accident Frequency Rate (AFR) of zero with over four million hours worked – all providing testament to her effectiveness.

Sarah says:

The award really is recognition of the fantastic work and ‘safety first’ culture of the transportation business at Thales. I’m proud and lucky to be able to do my job in an organisation that is as committed and passionate about safety as I am.”
