NOMINATIONS ARE OPEN

The award that celebrates the people who make health and safety better - for their colleagues, their organisation and the whole profession.

Who is a Health and Safety Hero?

A Health and Safety Hero is someone who goes further than their job description. They don't just manage risk - they shift culture. They make health and safety something people believe in, talk about and take seriously.

They might be raising the profile of the H&S function within their organisation, inspiring colleagues to take a fresh look at safety, or making a visible impact in the wider industry. Whatever form it takes, their work makes a tangible difference to the people around them.

If you know someone like that - nominate them.

What's at stake

The winner receives
The Health and Safety Hero title, announced at Safety, Health and Wellbeing Live London with a diploma - plus a Fortnum & Mason hamper of their choice, worth up to £200.
