Proseal’s firm commitment to the highest standards of health and safety throughout its operations has been underlined by the company receiving three nominations in the Health and Safety Excellence Awards 2022.

Proseal has been shortlisted in the Best Health and Safety in Manufacturing and Safer Logistics categories, while the company’s HSE Coordinator Adriana Zwolan has been nominated for the Rising Star award.

These achievements reflect the incredible progress that Proseal has made during 2021 to further improve its health and safety provisions, in particular by increasing engagement from both employees and management to create a positive safety culture throughout the company, where health and safety are viewed as the top priority.

Adriana’s appearance on the Rising Star shortlist is a significant achievement as she has only been with Proseal since October 2021. However, during this short time she has already made an impact, completing several important projects, such as the introduction of improved and safer racking systems and a new hearing protection programme.

In the words of Proseal’s HSE Manager Barbara Derecka, Adriana “demonstrates what new era health and safety practitioners must have: determination, persistence in achieving goals, great communication skills at all levels, a caring attitude and the ability to connect with people.”

Jon Garner, President Packaging Group of Proseal said that the three nominations reflected a continued and strengthened emphasis on health and safety within the business. “While we have always had a comprehensive health and safety programme in place, Barbara and Adriana have brought a new focus to this and through their commitment and enthusiasm have made health and safety front of mind for everyone in the company, and clearly demonstrated ownership is clear for every person within the company.”

The Health and Safety Awards celebrate innovation and achievements throughout the sector. The awards will be announced on 6th April.
