Bahrain Bay, the $2.5 billion waterfront community located in the heart of Manama, announced that two of its key construction contractors, Nass Murray & Roberts and AMA Group, have both exceeded one million accident free hours whilst working on the project.
Part of Bahrain Bay's construction policy is that all developers and construction suppliers associated with the project have to conform to rigorous health and safety standards. Nass Murray & Roberts, the international engineering, contracting and construction firm who has been assigned to build the Arcapita HQ building and AMA, the leading regional infrastructure group and main infrastructure contractor for the project, follow Bahrain Bay's philosophy that every accident and every injury is preventable.
Bahrain Bay's consultant project manager for the Arcapita building, Andrew Mitchell of Mace, said: "In any project one million man hours without an LTI (Lost Time Incident) or reportable accident is a fantastic achievement. Given the complexities with the local mix of cultures and attitudes to health and safety, this is an even more significant milestone."
Bob Vincent, CEO of Bahrain Bay, added: "Bahrain Bay has placed safety at the centre of its construction policy and we're very proud to be able to announce a million accident free man hours by both Nass Murray & Roberts and AMA Group."
