The ILTA Safety Excellence Award is given annually to terminals that demonstrate exemplary safety records and practices. This includes criteria such as the frequency and severity of incidents, implementation of safety programs, adherence to safety regulations, and overall safety culture within the organization.
OTUS attributes this achievement to its employees' unwavering commitment to to maintaining a safe work environment. Adrian Lenning, Managing Director Terminals expressed his enthusiasm, stating:
“Congrats to the team! Great to see the continued focus on working together safely!”
OTUS's back-to-back wins add to a long list of safety accolades in the last couple of years. CEO John Blanchard highlights the importance of good culture in explaining Odfjell's recent success:
“Safety is a continuous effort and to a large extent a result of organizational culture. In recent years, we have seen a notable reduction in incidents such as spills and process safety events, reflecting an unwavering commitment to safety culture. The fact that OTUS was recognized with the ILTA award is a testament to this work.”
