ASRY sets 5 m man-hours safety record

Arab Shipbuilding and Repair Yard (ASRY), the Arabian Gulf ’s leading maritime repair and fabrication facility announced setting a new record for the longest period in the yard’s history without a lost time incident.

On 22 May 2019, ASRY surpassed 5 million manhours, without an LTI- the longest recorded period of yard-wide safe work since the company founded in 1977. ASRY’s CEO Andy Shaw commented: “Since rejoining ASRY in 2017, and initiating the first phase of the turnaround strategy, the most vital element has been to return to industry-leading safety standards.”

“This latest milestone is a testament to that paramount target, and indicative of the overall progress the yard has made towards remaining a sustainable pillar of the Bahrain industrial sector,” Andy Shaw added.

ASRY HSSE Manager Mark Burrows added: “This is an ongoing and permanent improvement process to the entire way ASRY operates and will continue to evolve to keep our 5,000+ staff as safe as possible for the foreseeable future.”
