Emaar MGF Commemorates 44th National Safety Day at Project Sites

India’s leading real estate developer, Emaar MGF today concluded the week–long activities at its project sites to celebrate the 44^th National Safety Day and Week. The events were organised by the Company with active participation by its Contractors to emphasize on the importance of safety among its site workers, encouraging them to comply with Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) norms.

The National Safety Day and Week Campaign was founded by National Safety Council of India, a self-governing and non-profit body. Under this, 4^th March is celebrated as National Safety Day across the country every year, with National Safety Week organised from 4^th-10^th March.

The Company conducted various safety awareness activities and competitions at its project sites like Palm Terraces Select, Marbella, Capital Towers, Palm Hills, Palm Drive and Emerald Hills in Gurgaon and Mohali Hills in Mohali. The construction workers showed great enthusiasm by actively participating in programs like safety flag hoisting, safety pledge, safety walk, mock safety drills and demonstration, safety song and safety speeches. Emaar MGF also facilitated prize distribution for the best HSE performers, as well as the most safety-conscious laborers and workers at site.

To create awareness about safe work practices, and to ensure adoption of correct safety norms, our HSE Team ensures that various safety programs, health checkups, training sessions, mock drills and demonstrations are regularly conducted at project sites, with active support from our staff and the contractors.
