Safety award open for submissions
[ April 13, 2017 // Chris ]ICHCA International is inviting submissions for the second TT Club Innovation in Safety Award from anyone involved in cargo logistics who can show a demonstrable improvement to safety
The goal of the Award is equally to champion and celebrate the many companies and individuals around the world who are 100% dedicated to ‘making it safe’ every day, and to acknowledge and foster innovation to improve safety in cargo operations and logistics.
The inaugural Award was won last year by APMT Buenos Aires for its mobile port equipment safety logging system.
TT Club risk management director Peregrine Storrs-Fox said, “TT Club has always emphasised the critical nature of loss prevention in its role as a primary supplier of liability and property insurance to those in the supply chain industry. As such, we remain dedicated to encouraging safety awareness and applaud ICHCA’s initiative in offering this prestigious award. TT Club has worked closely with ICHCA for a number of years, producing safety advisory documents and urging sound operational practice wherever and whenever possible. We look forward to celebrating the wealth of safety innovation that will once more be encouraged by this Award.”
Deadline is Thursday 29 June. For full details of the entry process and judging criteria visit: www.eiseverywhere.com/ehome/ichcaconference2017/tt-club-award/
