UCC CEO Mr. Moataz Al Khayyat Comments on Achieving 10 Million Man-Hours Without Lost-Time Incident

"Achieving 10 million man-hours without major incident is no accident,” says Mr. Moataz Al Khayyat, CEO of UrbaCon Contracting & Trading (UCC), “but the direct consequence of the company’s commitment to safety and accountability."

Doha, Qatar, April 08, 2015 --(PR.com)-- ISO certified and with a number of health and safety milestones accumulated, UCC is universally recognised as one of Qatar’s leading contractors, and has passed rigorous HSE audits on all of its current projects, which include several prestigious hotels and resorts, as well as the Mall of Qatar.

“At UCC, safety is not just a written policy in a book; not just a set of rules and regulations. It is an essential aspect of our day-to-day business,” explains Moataz Al Khayyat.

UCC is so successful because it utilises a ‘top down’ strategy, with all levels of management supporting HSE as a number one priority. “This,” says Moataz Al Khayyat, “means sufficient funding for training, investment in the correct safety equipment, keeping up-to-date with unique challenges on a project, and adapting safety criteria for those precise job conditions.”

The company also ensures it has the correct professionals available on all projects, including safety engineers, who are on-site during every hour worked. UCC recognises that it is only as effective as its on-site workforce, and is pleased to say that every single person has embraced the importance of health and safety during their everyday activities.

Summing up the company’s success in HSE, Moataz Al Khayyat said: “UCC has a long history of driving nonstop improvement in safety standards and is working hard to ensure that it continues to lead the industry in this vital aspect of our work.”
