Joseph Gallagher Ltd Awarded RoSPA Gold Medal for Seven Consecutive Gold Awards

Setting the Standard in Health & Safety

With almost 2,000 entries annually from over 50 countries and covering over seven million employees, the RoSPA Awards are the world’s longest-running and most distinguished health and safety recognition programme. Earning a Gold Medal Award is a testament to the Joseph Gallagher team’s consistent excellence in implementing and upholding the highest safety standards in the industry.

This continued success is built on a strong foundation of proactive safety initiatives, comprehensive training programmes, and a culture of accountability and care that permeates every level of the organisation—from leadership to site teams.

Group SHEQT Manager, Mathew Beechey, commented:
“Winning our seventh consecutive RoSPA Gold Award is not just a milestone—it’s a celebration of every team member’s contribution to making safety a non-negotiable at Joseph Gallagher. It reflects our enduring promise to ensure that everyone returns home safely, every day.”

A Culture of Continuous Improvement

As Joseph Gallagher continues to take on complex infrastructure and tunnelling projects across the UK and beyond, health and safety remains a cornerstone of its operations. The company embraces reflective practice and continuous improvement, using its RoSPA Award submissions as opportunities to benchmark progress and share learnings that benefit the broader construction community.

This award also reflects the strength of our LIFE (Living Incident Free Everyday) culture programme, which we are proudly celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. Over the past decade, LIFE has become a cornerstone of how we approach safety across all levels of the business. Through LIFE, we empower our teams to take ownership, promote proactive behaviours, and foster a shared commitment to incident prevention and continuous improvement.

Julia Small, RoSPA’s Growth Director, added:
“Joseph Gallagher Ltd should be proud of the hard work and commitment to keeping people safe that has resulted in a RoSPA Award. This achievement honours organisations that place accident prevention at the heart of their operations - for the benefit of employees, clients, and society as a whole.”
