Douglas OHI drives road safety awareness across UAE operations

Douglas OHI is dedicated to building a culture of safety that reaches beyond the workplace and into the communities where we operate. Recently, our UAE team led an engaging Road Safety Campaign to raise awareness among employees, drivers, and site personnel about the vital importance of safe driving, both on project sites and public roads.

Traffic-related incidents remain a significant risk to individuals and organisations, making road safety a core focus for Douglas OHI. The campaign highlighted responsible driving, adherence to speed limits, correct use of safety equipment, and the importance of staying alert to one’s surroundings. By reinforcing these principles, we protect the wellbeing of our workforce and help promote safer road practices throughout the wider community.

The initiative combined interactive sessions, practical demonstrations, and targeted communications to ensure active engagement at all levels. Participants were encouraged to evaluate their own driving habits and recognise the role of personal responsibility in preventing accidents. This hands-on approach transforms road safety from a set of rules into a mindset that guides daily operations.

At Douglas OHI, safety is more than compliance. It is about leadership, culture, and accountability. Campaigns like this demonstrate our proactive approach to risk management and our commitment to embedding a safety-first mentality across all operations.

By making road safety a priority, we safeguard our employees while reinforcing our reputation as a responsible, forward-thinking contractor in the UAE and across the GCC. Through ongoing awareness initiatives and engagement programmes, Douglas OHI continues to reduce risks, protect lives, and foster a culture where safety is a shared responsibility.
