RAMON, Isabela -- The
Dept. of Labor and Employment (DoLE) has awarded the prestigious Gawad
Kaligtasan at Kalusugan (GKK)-Nationals to renewable energy solutions provider
SN Aboitiz Power (SNAP) Group in a ceremony on November 23.
SNAP representatives personally received the trophies from Labor Secretary Bienvenido Laguesma. SNAP has been consistently recognized by the GKK for commendable occupational safety and health (OSH) practices.
According to Laguesma, GKK is the most prestigious award for health and safety in the industry, commending the participants for their collective contributions to uphold the labor department's advocacy and help build the future of OSH in the country.
For years, the DoLE has lauded the best establishments and individuals in terms of OSH and environmental programs and policies through GKK.
It said only regional champions are eligible for the national recognition; SNAP-Benguet and SNAP-Magat were awarded champions of their respective regions earlier in November, and that SNAP-Benguet's Ambuklao hydroelectric power plant (HEPP) was recognized as a national industry champion in OSH, while both Binga HEPP and SNAP-Magat's Magat HEPP also bagged Silver Awards.
According to the Labor department, Hollis Fernandez, SNAP-Benguet assistant vice president and plant manager also received the Silver Award in the individual category for his exemplary contributions to OSH.
Jayne Consolacion, Corporate Communication, PR and Branding specialist, said the awards reaffirm SNAP's commitment to going above and beyond in creating effective and innovative programs to ensure the health and safety of their workforce and continually create meaningful impact in communities.
Joseph Yu, president and chief executive officer of SNAP Group, said, "as one of our core values, safety is truly ingrained in SNAP's culture," adding that the national recognition speaks to their efforts and commitment so far and drives them to innovate and work even harder.
"We will keep raising the bar in occupational safety and health, and building resilience in our employees and communities through our programs," Yu said.
