The OCS Utilities team has been recognised for the third consecutive year with the RoSPA Gold Award for Health and Safety for its tower painting contract.
The Utilities tower painting is a specialist service where safety is non-negotiable. Working at extreme height requires more than technical ability. It calls for daily discipline, rigorous processes, and a dedication to doing things the right way. For the teams involved, safety is built into every action and decision.
Barry Creswick, Director – Utilities, OCS, commented: “RoSPA gold for three consecutive years reflects the effort and commitment across the OCS Utilities tower painting business. The services we deliver are in high-risk environments which require OCS teams to demonstrate continuous commitment to health and safety excellence, and are underpinned by a positive approach to doing things the right way.”
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents’ recognition highlights the outcomes and team culture behind them. The OCS tower painting team has consistently demonstrated how methodical preparation, ongoing training, and active risk awareness translate into measurable results – for colleagues, customers, and the wider communities where they operate.
Three years of Gold status signals more than compliance, says OCS. This achievement displays the company’s wider commitment to resilience and best practices, with safety embedded as a core pillar of service delivery across the organisation.
