Alba kicks-off its Summer Safety & Health Campaign for 2025

me-metals: “Our annual summer Safety & Health (S&H) campaign is more than just a seasonal reminder to stay safe; it is a call to action - Stay Vigilant. Stay Informed. Stay Safe,” stated Aluminium Bahrain B.S.C (Alba)’s Chief Executive Officer Ali Al Baqali at the inauguration of the Company’s 2025 Summer Safety & Health (S&H) Campaign ‘Summer is Here! Ring the Safety Bell’ on 14 July 2025 at the Oasis Hall.

according to me-metals cited from mining.com, the opening ceremony was attended by the assistant undersecretary for labour relations at the ministry of labour, aqeel buhussein, along with several senior officials, representatives of contracting companies operating at alba, and employees from across the plant.

adding further al baqali stated, “summer brings its own set of challenges in our industry, all of which put our resilience to test. we are proud to have achieved eight years without any heat-related injuries and illnesses in 2024, and, most recently, surpassed 37 million safe working hours without lti; but summer-related risks repeat every year, and we must stay proactive to ensure that every team member stays safe, supported and ready to beat the heat.”

alba’s 2025 s&h campaign will be held until 23 july and focus on critical summer-related topics such as hydration, heat awareness and safe work practices to empower every employee with the knowledge and tools to thrive both on and off the job.

the campaign’s programme includes various panel discussions that emphasise cross-functional collaboration and safety best practices across departments; health awareness session by general practitioner dr. abrar mahdi titled “health in summer”; and the highly anticipated ‘young albawee’ session, showcasing the children of alba employees promoting safety through creative presentations and video messages.

the 2025 s&h campaign is a key part of alba’s ongoing commitment to cultivating a world-class safety culture for its workforce, a commitment that has earned the company several recent prestigious recognitions including rospa 2025 health and safety achievement award (president’s award), british safety council 2025 international safety award, as well as numerous awards from the national safety council, usa. these accolades reflect alba’s continuous efforts to raise the bar in safety standards both inside and outside the workplace.
