DuPont announced that its 2015 Safety and Sustainability Awards are now open to companies worldwide, rather than just those in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region. DuPont Sustainable Solutions is soliciting applications for the 2015 awards. Applications should be submitted by Feb. 1, 2015. Complete entries, including a summary of the project, must be received by Feb. 27.
Since its launch in 2002, the bi-annual competition has attracted a growing number of applicants. Last year’s entries came from a wide range of industry sectors across EMEA – from the U.K. to Germany, Saudi Arabia, Kazakhstan, Turkey, France, the United Arab Emirates and Italy. DuPont is creating a new category for the awards this year – Operational Excellence.
The bi-annual DuPont Safety and Sustainability Awards competition welcomes entries from all companies or organizations that can demonstrate significant achievements in one of the following three categories: safety, sustainability or operations excellence. Regional winners in each category will be announced in May 2015, and the global winner will be announced in September 2015. Awards will be judged on criteria including management commitment, cultural evolution, performance improvement, innovation and stakeholder engagement.
