Road Safety Week activities

November 24, 2022
Last week was Road Safety Week and across the company, sites were getting involved in discussions and activities to promote it.

At Mansfield and Chesterfield Readymix plant, Ian Phoenix and John Parker - General & Commercial Manager N East & Yorkshire, carried out a Cross functional VFL day to promote Road Safety Week - see photo. They had great interaction with a variety of drivers in varying vehicles delivering inbound /outbound Cemex products at Cemex Mansfield & Chesterfield Readymix sites. John said: “We had a very positive day with great engagement and positivity from all concerned. We cannot underestimate the value of having these days - they really do prevent accidents and raise issues of health and wellbeing.”

At the CEMEX Tilbury plant, the team, supported by Operations Manager Barrie Flitton, took time out to discuss Road Safety with both our own fleet and contract hauliers. Shift Manager Rory Clark gave an overview on some of the discussions: “We have had an overwhelmingly positive response with regards to CEMEX, our safety equipment and our safety standards. People feel that CEMEX do take safety seriously, and drivers reported that they feel listened to when reporting safety issues.”
