Drydocks World-Dubai, an entity of Drydocks World, has been confirmed as a winner of the British Safety Council Sword of Honour for the fourth year in succession.

"Safety has been maintained as the highest priority within our organisation and our efforts are bearing fruit through world wide recognition," said Nawal Saigal, MD of Drydocks World - Dubai. Drydocks World -Dubai is known in the industry to encourage local marine based companies to embrace the ‘safety culture' in their own back yards, thus overall establishing Dubai as a safe city," added Saigal.

Inaugurated in 1979, every year only 40 swords are awarded worldwide, so winners are elite organisations that boast first class health and safety for their employees.
