Leading Nigerian maritime and logistics company, Nigerdock, has announced 17 Million Man-Hours without Lost Time Injury (LTI) across its operations.
Chief Marketing Officer, Mr Kevin Johnson-Azuara, described the achievement as a significant and noteworthy safety landmark that is indicative of the company’s implementation of global safety standards and sustainable business practices.
The Oracle Today reports that Nigerdock operates an integrated port and free zone in Lagos, providing clients with terminal operations, logistics, marine services, and free zone solutions.
Chief Executive Officer, Maher Jarmakani described the LTI feat as a milestone that “reflects our prioritization of workplace safety and our exemplary adherence to best practices in our day-to-day operations.”
“I commend our managerial and operational teams, along with our partners and sub-contractors for an unwavering commitment to implementing company-wide world-class safety standards, and policies focused on operational safety, the environment, health, security and emergency readiness,” he stated.
The company stated in media release weekend that LTI remains a critical Key Performance Indicator (KPI) for Nigerdock’s conformity with industry best practices, and a benchmark that evaluates the company’s adherence to safety and environmental requirements during operations.
General Manager in charge of Operations, Simon Husband, stated: “Maintaining a safe workplace is a collective effort, and we are grateful for the continuous vigilance of employees towards preventing disruptions due to personnel injury. Our mantra of ‘No one gets hurt at work’ is a shared dedication to a safe and secure work environment that consistently meets international safety requirements.”

The company recently achieved recertifications for Quality Management System (ISO 9001:2015) and Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems (ISO 45001:2018), the statement said.
