RIL's SEZ refinery bags British Safety Council's award

This is the first time that a Reliance Industries Limited manufacturing site has been bestowed upon with such a coveted award. The Award will be presented at a celebratory luncheon at Mansion House in the City of London on Friday 23 November, 2012.

In all, there were 13 applicants and 9 received the Globe of Honor. All applications for the Globe of honor were marked by an independent adjudicator and SEZ Refinery received 68 marks out of 72.

To be eligible for the award which is a five star environment audit, the applicant organizations should demonstrate a culture of best practice for health and safety throughout the business – from the boardroom to the shop floor.
