Aluminium Bahrain (Alba), the largest aluminium smelter in the world ex-China, has received the 2023 International Safety Award with Merit from the British Safety Council (BSC), which came in recognition of its efforts to maintain a safe and healthy work environment during 2022.

 

The award was received by Alba’s Chief Executive Officer Ali Al Baqali during BSC’s International Safety Awards Gala Dinner held on May 19, 2023 at the Landmark Hotel, London, in the presence of Alba’s Director Safety and Health Mohamed Khalil Saeed. 

Commenting on this recognition, Al Baqali said: “We are honoured to have been recognised once again with the British Safety Council’s Merit Award as it underlines the safety culture we have built in all our work -- from our admin offices to every function and shop-floor in Alba. This award is dedicated to every employee and contractor’s personnel for their commitment to personal safety and operational safety.” 

 

Alba welcomed, on 05 June 2023, a delegation from BSC comprising Strategic Account Manager (International & UK), Nusrat Khan, and Acting Head of Audit and Consultancy, Phil Pinnington, who joined the company’s management in its monthly safety review meeting that provides insights on the year-to-date performance of safety, health, fire and security as well as environment indicators.
