Safety Leadership
Atkins remains strongly committed to key improvements in health and safety and continues to provide leadership within our industry. We continue to take part in the Construction Industry Council (CIC) health and safety standing committee, of which our chief executive was the chair until he became overall chair of the CIC in June 2008. In recognition of Keith Clarke’s leadership for the industry, he received the Outstanding Safety Achievement award from Building Magazine.
We also continue to improve safety leadership within Atkins. We improved directors’ safety tours by organising bespoke training for directors. By 2008 all directors across Atkins who undertake Safety Tours will be trained, demonstrating our commitment to leadership in health and safety.

We also work to ensure the principles of safety leadership are embedded throughout our business – see Our Performance and our health and safety policy.
