Aradel Records 10 Million Injury-Free Man-Hours.

Aradel Holdings Plc has announced that it achieved 10 million man-hours without a lost-time injury across its operations as of 21 December 2025. In a statement, the company said the achievement spans all its subsidiaries and was recorded during a period of increased operational activity. It attributed the milestone to a strong health, safety and environment (HSE) culture underpinned by structured safety programmes and proactive leadership. Aradel also recalled that in August 2025, it marked 20 years of uninterrupted production while sustaining what it described as an excellent HSE performance. The company noted that its annual HSE Week, now nearing its ninth year, has remained central to promoting vigilance and sustaining safety standards across the organisation. Aradel disclosed that it has obtained ISO 14001:2015 certification for environmental management and ISO 9001:2015 certification for quality management, and is progressing towards ISO 45001:2018 certification for occupational health and safety management systems. It also stated that it has deployed SAP EHS Management to digitally manage occupational health, workplace safety and environmental compliance. Commenting on the milestone, the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Adegbite Falade, said safety remains the company’s foremost priority. He noted that the achievement reflects both the strength of Aradel’s systems and the depth of its safety culture, adding that recording 10 million man-hours without a lost-time injury underscores the discipline, collaboration and commitment of its workforce. He stressed that the company operates “at the speed of safety.” Aradel further highlighted its ‘Stop Work’ policy, which empowers employees and contractors to suspend any activity deemed unsafe, as a key element of its safety framework. The company said its Golden Safety Rules have been fully embedded across the organisation to reinforce a “see something, say something” mindset. The company reaffirmed its commitment to delivering sustainable energy solutions that support Nigeria’s economic growth, while enhancing operational performance and setting higher safety standards within the energy sector.
