Our EHS and site team from West Pharma collaborated with the Health and Safety Authority (HSA) to deliver a strong message on sun protection for all outdoor workers and employers this summer. The HSA is urging employers and employees nationwide to take proactive measures to protect themselves from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

Employees are encouraged to take personal responsibility for their sun safety by:

  • Wearing protective gear
  • Using sunscreen
  • Seeking shade
  • Staying hydrated
