DOHA: Ras Laffan Power Company, the first independent power and water producing company in the State of Qatar commercially operating since 2003, has completed 12 years of operation without any Loss Time Injury for Employees and Contractors.
The milestone was achieved on August 21 this year. A celebration was arranged in the company located inside Ras Laffan Industrial City on September 25. The programme was attended by all the Board of Directors, employees and contractors.
During the event, Managing Director of Qatar Electricity and Water Corporation (QEWC), Fahad Al Mohannadi, stated that every worker is important for his family and hence all measures should be taken to ensure safety of the workers. He expressed his happiness on the milestone achieved by Ras Laffan Power Company and wished for many such milestone in future.
Mubarak Al Nasr, CEO of Ras Laffan Power Company, said on the occasion, “Twelve years back it would have looked like a distant dream but today it is a sense of accomplishment and matter of pride for all of us. Coming years will continue to bring new challenges from yet unidentified hazards and unique situations. Many organisations fail to carry through the same awareness level of safety and become victim of complacency and this is an area where we need to strengthen ourselves.”
Ras Laffan Power Company also received Gold Medal from Royal Society for Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) during a ceremony at the Glasgow, United Kingdom on September 13, 2018. The award was received by CEO Mubarak Al Nasr.
