Award Sponsor	Winner/Judges special commendation	Company	Winner Photo	Why they won
	Winner	Clugston Construction		This entry was led from the top, involved the workforce, and felt real and relevant, the judges said of Clugston Construction’s ‘Take time’ initiative. It’s a very challenging task to influence/encourage those who are not directly controlled, the judges said, but the Electrical Contractors Association’s Zero Accident Potential (ZAP) initiative tries to do just that. Hire company A-Plant reached out to many in its aim to be acknowledged as a leading safety champion in the hire sector.
