Hussain Al Hammadi, Executive Director, Crisis Management, Tadweer Group said: “Achieving 10 million man-hours without a Lost Time Injury across Tadweer Group’s core operations is a remarkable testament to our culture of safety that underpins everything we do. At the heart of this achievement is our shared commitment to safeguarding the well-being of every individual contributing to our mission. The Albihouth Waste-to-Energy project in Al Dhafra, which itself recently surpassed one million LTI-free man-hours, exemplifies how we are building critical infrastructure with care and precision. These milestones reflect not only operational excellence but also our determination to deliver world-class, sustainable waste solutions that advance the UAE’s net-zero ambitions and reinforce Abu Dhabi’s global leadership in environmental stewardship.”
Stefan Kipp, CEO, Albihouth, commented: “Safety is not just a priority; it is a fundamental value embedded in every stage of the Albihouth Waste-to-Energy project. Reaching one million man-hours without a Lost Time Injury in just 10 months is a powerful reflection of our commitment to our workers, staff and their families. As we build one of the UAE’s most significant sustainable infrastructure projects, we remain steadfast in our dedication to the highest standards of health, safety, and environmental performance. This achievement is a promise that we will continue to put people first as we help power a cleaner, more sustainable future.”
The Albihouth Waste-to-Energy project is a flagship initiative that will contribute to the UAE’s clean energy transition by converting municipal solid waste into electricity. The project is being developed by a consortium of shareholders that includes Tadweer Group, Kanadevia Inova, and Marubeni Corporation, and JOIN, each bringing deep expertise and high standards of operational excellence and HSE compliance. The 1 million man hours were reached in just 10 months after the commencement of EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) activities in July 2024, the achievement underscores the project’s unwavering commitment to safety excellence.
As the UAE accelerates its journey toward net-zero emissions and a circular economy, Tadweer Group’s achievement of 10 million man-hours without a Lost Time Injury across its core operations underscores its dedication to a culture of safety and wellbeing. The Albihouth Waste-to-Energy project in Al Dhafra, a key component of this success, has contributed over one million LTI-free hours, exemplifying the organisation’s commitment to delivering complex infrastructure responsibly. Together with its partners, Tadweer Group remains focused on setting new benchmarks in health, safety, and environmental stewardship, while driving long-term environmental and economic value for Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE.
