SOCOTEC's Railway Environmental Forum Returns

The event brought together professionals from across the industry to engage in topical discussions with industry experts, network with likeminded individuals and develop a broader understanding of a wide range of environmental, health, safety and compliance issues that affect them in their day-to-day roles. Topics up for debate included:

• Environmental Noise
• Asbestos
• COVID-19
• Sustainability
• Silica Dust.

Gary Williamson, quality facilities manager, Northern Rail, attended the REF for the first time this year and reflected on his experience: “Myself and the Northern Rail team found SOCOTEC’s Railway Environmental Forum to be structured, informative and educational. We would be delighted to attend any upcoming events organised by SOCOTEC moving forward.”

“Having had to unfortunately cancel last year’s event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we were delighted to see the return of the REF and meet with delegates in person,” commented Nicola Atkinson, rail account manager, SOCOTEC UK. “On behalf of everyone at SOCOTEC UK, I would like to thank all attendees for their continued support and look forward to welcoming them back next year.”
