Alba demonstrates its safety standards to EWA delegates

Aluminium Bahrain (Alba) recently demonstrated its safety standards to a delegation from the Electricity & Water Authority (EWA)’s Water Transmission Directorate Safety Committee.

Alba’s environment & safety engineer Hubert Satheesh met the 14-member delegation headed by EWA’s chief of Safety & Environment, Qatami Al-Marasi.

The delegation was briefed on the safety guidelines and procedures adopted in Alba, and was later given an insight on the company’s operations and state-of-the-art production process involved in producing Alba’s high-grade aluminium products and presence in international markets.

“Alba takes pride in promoting safety as a key priority in all of its operations. This priority is specified in our charter and remains a key focus for developing a safe working environment not only for our employees but also for the wider community,” said Alba’s chief executive Laurent Schmitt.

“It was a privilege to share our experience with EWA delegation as it gave us the opportunity to spread Alba’s messages on occupational safety, health and environment.”

The EWA delegation was given a tour around different facilities in the plant, and also briefed on the aluminium production process.

They were also given a presentation on the company’s credentials as a corporate citizen, environmental commitment, safety policies, adherence to quality and its contribution to Bahrain’s economy.
