On October 3 2016, the Chief Executive of the British Safety Council, Mike Robinson, will meet with the management of Hargreaves Industrial Services in Hong Kong to discuss the upcoming best practice health and safety audit of the Hong Kong Power Station, which is operated by Hargreaves.

The charity, campaigning body and membership organisation, The British Safety Council, was founded 60 years ago and has a vision that no one should be made ill or injured at work.

The group has been working with businesses in the Far East, including Hong Kong, to improve health, safety and environmental management to benefit both workers and the whole organisation.

A subsidiary of the Hargreaves Services Plc, Hargreaves Industrial Services is a leading provider of operational, maintenance and facility management services to customers in the waste, energy, steel and transport sectors.

The company employs more than 2,000 staff and has annual revenues of £340 million, delivering key projects and services in the property, energy and infrastructure sectors.

Head of Audit at the British Safety Council, David Parr, commented on Mike Robinson’s meeting with Hargreaves in Hong Kong: “Hargreaves have been using the British Safety Council’s five-star audit process across its Industrial Services to benchmark the company’s current occupational health and safety management systems against best practice and to ensure continual improvement in this area of their business.”

During his time in Hong Kong, Robinson will also meet with other local business leaders to discuss the many aspects of future co-operation, such as professional education and training, of which the British Safety Council is the leading provider.

He will also explore the benefits of consultancy and audit for the management of operational risks and the continuous improvement of standards in health and safety.

Mr Robinson will also speak at the 8thInternational Forum on Work and Safety, taking place in Beijing, China, on the 27-29 September 2016, where he will present the business case for managing health and safety and explore the nature of leadership in the industry.
