Qatar Rail holds 2024 Zero Harm Awards ceremony
The awards are part of the Health, Safety, Environment, Security, and Sustainability (QSHESE) team’s initiatives to recognise the efforts of Qatar Rail employees, service providers, and contractors who have demonstrated and outstandingly displayed behaviours and practices aligned with the company’s principles of injury-free operations and Zero Harm ethos.
In a press statement, engineer Abdulrahman al-Malik, senior QSHESE director at Qatar Rail, said: “In collaboration with various partners, we remain committed to adopting the highest standards of health, safety, and security in all our operations, working towards the company’s vision of injury- and harm-free operations.
“At Qatar Rail, we believe that achieving a zero- harm environment is not just a goal but a way of working that reflects our corporate values. Our strength lies in the collective efforts of all teams, including employees, service providers, and contractors. Through these awards, we strive to encourage and enhance innovation in safety, which always remains a top priority for us.”
The ceremony, at Qatar Rail’s headquarters, featured 10 categories focusing on the principle of achieving “zero harm.” The inaugural edition provided opportunity to compete for around 4,700 employees, workers, service providers, and subcontractors across the company.
These categories included: Qatar Rail Health and Safety League Champion, Design Contribution to Health and Safety, Environment and Sustainability Award, Health and Safety Communication Award, The Health and Wellbeing Award, The Inspiration Award, The Team Award, and The MD Special Award in addition to other awards that celebrated individual outstanding achievements in health and safety.
Qatar Rail maintains an exemplary safety record in its operations. For example, the Doha Metro project achieved a total incident frequency rate of 0.01 since its launch in May 2019 to November 2024. This reflects commitment to the highest global safety standards, marking one of the lowest rates recorded worldwide for rail projects.
