The 2027 Workplace Violence Reduction Awards will once again be co-located with The Safety and Security Series, taking place at the Birmingham Metropole Hotel on 28 April 2027.
The awards provide a valuable opportunity to celebrate success, share best practice and shine a light on the people and initiatives helping to create safer workplaces.
Importantly, the WVRAs are proud to maintain strict ethics policies covering entry, judging and sponsorship, ensuring that every participant can have confidence in a fair, transparent and impartial process.
The WVRAs are about more than winning an award — they are about recognising the people who are helping to make workplaces safer.
