Safe working bonus given in Tommy’s memory
More than 1.8 million hours of safe working has been completed across Sellafield Ltd's major projects.
That’s more than 200 years’ worth of safe hours worked, in a time of massive construction and change on the Sellafield site in West Cumbria.
Sellafield Ltd Head of EHS&Q in Project Delivery, Mark Sarrington explained:
Once we knew we were hitting this milestone without a recordable accident we knew we wanted to mark it in some way.
Our colleague Tommy Dougan sadly passed away in the summer – he was very well regarded so we thought it would be a nice idea to speak to his family and ask them which deserving cause they would like to see benefit.
Tommy was a safety advisor on the Sellafield site and supported the recent delivery of the Silos Maintenance Facility project. His family chose Hospice at Home West Cumbria, which will receive £500.
Tommy’s son Marc, who works at the Vitrification facility as a Manufacturing Team Leader, said:
The hospice really helped a great deal when my dad was in the nursing home, the support they gave us was second to none. Thanks for this very kind gesture it really means a lot and it shows how well my dad was thought of.
