Hellenic Business Awards 2026

Aug22136 19. Most Trusted Emerging Occupational Health & Safety Consultancy 2026 With a continuing rise in fatal workplace incidents and mounting concern over the underreporting of occupational risks, workplace safety has been brought into question across companies throughout Greece. Occupational health and safety consultancy A Safety is on a mission to reshape the workplace, driven by its vision of a world where employees face zero accidents when at work. We took a closer look below, as A Safety is named in the Hellenic Business Awards 2026. Located in Lamia, A Safety is an engineering company that specialises in providing occupational health and safety consulting services. The company supports businesses throughout Greece in complying with Greek legislation and international standards, including ISO 45001, LOTO, and Machine Guarding. These services are directly suited to industrial clients, though the company also provides specialised advice to clients within construction and various other industries, who all share a desire to take their businesses beyond compliance. In a saturated market, A Safety distinguishes itself for the personalised, detailed service it delivers to each specific sector and client. Recognising that each situation is entirely unique, the company has distanced itself from the traditional “one-size-fits-all” service model and “copy-paste” solutions, instead opting to work with each client individually in order to find out what suits their specific company style. This approach enables A Safety to achieve its ultimate goal of workplace safety across Greece. Greece is the biggest entry point for products dispatched from China, due to the country’s naval strength and harbour size. The two countries formed a Comprehensive Strategic Partnership in 2006, which laid the foundation for intensive cooperation in trade, infrastructure, and maritime transport. The relationship has strengthened considerably over the last two decades, with bilateral goods trade reported to total $864 million as of August 2026. Greece’s role in global trade has created significant opportunity for a variety of sectors, though not every company has yet reached the necessary standards of HSE compliance. According to data presented by the Federation of Associations of Employees at Technical Enterprises in Greece, 37 workers lost their lives during the first four months in 2026, while 88 workers were seriously injured during the same time period. In parallel with this, EU legislation is being incorporated into Greek legislation, making public audits significantly stricter. These developments have driven a countrywide demand for personnel safety and HSE compliance within the workplace. A Safety is well equipped to respond to this demand head on, offering a customised Safety Audit package that positions each client’s company at a specific level of compliance and best practices. This audit plays an instrumental role in helping the client to understand what needs to be addressed across their company in order to achieve operational excellence in HSE. A Safety supports this service with an essential educational provision and Risk Assessment writing, which composes 70% of its business operations. The Risk Assessment is customised entirely to each client, offering a unique blend between Greek compliance, EU legislation, and best worldwide practices to ensure that every company is operating to a global standard. Alongside this, the team delivers specialised worker safety services and studies for machine guarding, explosive dust hazard avoidance, and the protective marking of machinery. These services are delivered by a standout team of professionals, who are dedicated to ensuring the success of every company they serve. A Safety promotes internal growth, encouraging its employees to read and understand not only Greek compliance but also the best international practices. Rather than a strict, office-based environment, the company has deployed flexible working arrangements to provide its team with the freedom to work as they want, while still ensuring that they keep the A Safety machine running. Looking to the future, the A Safety team is now preparing to meet rising demand across Greece for enhanced HSE compliance. This preparation will encompass investment in equipment for microclimate and sound checks, followed by an expansion to support the company’s offering of safety technicians, in alignment with Greek law. Finally, this period of growth will culminate in the launch of a learning centre for industrial clients and other personnel, helping them to understand the specific dangers, rules, and processes of their roles. Now, two years after Founder George Apostolopoulos was named in BOUSSIAS’s Health and Safety 50 Powerlist as one of the most influential HSE managers in Greece, A Safety has earned further industry applause in the Hellenic Business Awards 2026. For its industry expertise, dedicated team, and unwavering commitment to ensuring safety in the workplace, we at EU Business News Magazine are delighted to name A Safety the Most Trusted Emerging Occupational Health and Safety Consultancy 2026.
