Damac Properties, a leading luxury real estate developer in the region, has completed more than 180 million safe man hours across all of its projects in Dubai, UAE.

Damac Properties’ high-rise developments in Dubai clocked over 80 million safe man hours without incident, while the golf community master development, Damac Hills, achieved around 88 million safe man hours. Furthermore, Akoya Oxygen, the 55-million-sq-ft master development, registered more than 12 million safe man hours, bringing the tally to over 180 million safe man hours.

“At Damac Properties, we take the safety of our workforce very seriously, and as a leading real estate developer in the region, upholding stringent HSE (health, safety and environment) standards governs every aspect of our business. We are proud of this remarkable achievement, and I would like to extend my congratulations to Damac’s projects management and HSE teams for making this incredible milestone possible,” said Niall McLoughlin, senior vice president, Damac Properties.

“Health and safety has to be an integral component of any company’s overarching business framework, starting from its policies right down to its procedures.

“Necessary safety controls, designed to safeguard the wellbeing of all those involved in our projects, must be integrated into every process, and promoting awareness and continuous improvement of the programme is a matter of priority. At Damac Properties, aiming for ‘zero incidents’ is ingrained into the company’s vision and philosophy, and is considered a goal that has a higher significance than a performance benchmark alone,” McLoughlin added. – TradeArabia News Service
