Omexom GA Energo has achieved an exceptional milestone – it is the only company in the Czech Republic to have been awarded the prestigious Safety Culture Ladder (SCL) Level 4 certificate. The certification was awarded by the renowned Dutch organization NCI, one of Europe’s leading authorities in the field of occupational safety. This step confirms that Omexom GA Energo is among the best not only in the Czech Republic, but also in Europe.
The audit, which took place both at the company’s headquarters in Plzeň and on major projects in Ostrava, Hradec Králové, Prague, and Plzeň, verified that safety is deeply embedded in Omexom GA Energo’s corporate DNA. The company has progressed from level 3 to level 4 – Proactive, which is one of the highest levels of safety culture.
What does SCL level 4 mean?
Level 4 represents an organization in which everyone – from management to individual employees and contractors – is aware of the importance of safety. Risks are actively assessed, mistakes are openly acknowledged and used as learning opportunities, vital information flows freely in all directions, and great emphasis is placed on prevention and continuous improvement.
For Omexom GA Energo, this is not only a prestigious award, but above all a commitment that the safety and health of its employees will continue to be an absolute priority.
International quality standard
The Safety Culture Ladder is an internationally recognized standard that originated in the Netherlands under the auspices of ProRail and is now widely adopted in Germany, the United Kingdom, and other European countries. In industries where safety is key—energy, construction, and rail transport—SCL has become synonymous with a high level of safety culture.
Achieving Level 4 therefore ranks Omexom GA Energo among the European leaders in occupational safety.
Safety as our priority
“Obtaining the Safety Culture Ladder Level 4 certificate from NCI is a tremendous recognition for us and, at the same time, a commitment. We are proud to be the only company in the Czech Republic to have obtained this certification. It is proof that safety is an integral part of our operations and that every employee actively contributes to its implementation. I would like to thank all my colleagues for their dedication, openness, and courage, without which we would not have achieved this success,” says Zdeněk Židek, CEO of Omexom GA Energo, adding: “Omexom GA Energo has long proven that safety is not merely an obligation, but a core value that drives us forward. The Safety Culture Ladder Level 4 certificate is a milestone that we will build on with further development, open communication, and innovations in the field of occupational safety.”
