Aluminium Bahrain (Alba) said it was on course to evolve as the safest smelter in the world after the company today (April 12) achieved 10 million safe working-hours without Lost Time Injuries (LTI).
The world’s largest aluminium smelter ex-China, Alba boasts a production capacity of more than 1.548 million metric tonnes per annum (mtpa).
With a dual listing on Bahrain Bourse and London Stock Exchange, the company’s shareholders are Bahrain Mumtalakat Holding Company (69.38%), Sabic Industrial Investment Company (SIIC) (20.62%) and General Public (10%).
On the key safety milestone, CEO Ali Al Baqali said: "Achieving 10 million safe working-hours without LTI is no coincidence, when collectively as a team we do the Right Choice. Safety is not an act, but rather a lifestyle for Alba employees and contractors’ workforce."
"Taking Ownership of Safety is key to our success today and emphasizes Alba’s objective of maintaining a zero-accident work environment within the company," he stated.-TradeArabia News Service
