Aluminium Bahrain (Alba), a leading aluminium smelter of the world, has achieved a major safety milestone by successfully completing 4 million work hours without Lost Time Injury (LTI).

This achievement underlines Alba’s continuous commitment to safety and maintaining a zero-accident work environment, said a statement from the Bahraini company.

Alba’s executive management and various managers praised all the employees for their proactive attitude and commitment towards safety.

Lauding the employees for achieving this milestone, CEO Tim Murray said: "At Alba, we believe that Ownership of Safety is everyone responsibility and the achievement of 4 million work hours without LTI could not be achieved without the commitment of employees to this principle."

"I thank all the employees and the Alba Labour Union for their dedication to making Alba a safe place to work," he noted.    
 
Alba, with the objective of enhancing awareness of safety, health and environment, continuously maintains safety awareness campaigns throughout the year.

The company recently launched the Summer Safety Blizzard Campaign – a plant-wide Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) Week – to promote a safe and healthy working environment during the summer months and help employees beat the heat and work safely, the statement added.-TradeArabia News Service
