Congratulations to David Drummond and Edward Batty, recipients of the Individual Safety Achievement – East award at our recent Webuild Safety Excellence Forum.
 
On the Snowy 2.0 Project, David demonstrated exceptional leadership in strengthening safety performance during a critical period, helping deliver a comprehensive improvement plan and establishing the HSR Working Group framework to support stronger consultation and collaboration across the workforce.
 
On the North East Link Project, Edward drove the development of an automated scabbling gantry that removed workers from exposure to high-risk manual tunnelling activities, a powerful example of eliminating risk through engineering innovation.
 
Together, their achievements demonstrate how leadership and proactive thinking can deliver safer outcomes across complex infrastructure environments.
