Aluminium Bahrain (Alba), the world’s largest aluminium smelter ex-China, announced achieving 5 million safe working-hours without any Lost Time Injury (LTI) across its operations yesterday.

Alba’s Chief Executive Officer Ali Al Baqali said: “Our ability to be resilient has helped us to emerge collectively - employees and contractors - stronger than before. As we continue to grow as a Company, we also seek to continuously improve our safety performance. At the end of the day, what matters is the Safety of our workforce.” In 2019, Alba was one of the few smelters in the world to have achieved Zero Lost Time Injuries (LTI). In 2020, Alba was recognised with five categories of National Safety Council awards, International Safety Award with Merit from British Safety Council and Gold Medal Health and Safety Award from the Roy- al Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA).
