MACO’s Trevor Blackwell celebrates IOSH Level 3 qualification

Continuous development can take many forms, and for Trevor Blackwell at MACO UK, it has meant combining more than two decades of practical experience with a new professional qualification.

Trevor, Warehouse Operations and Quality Co-ordinator, has successfully completed the IOSH Level 3 Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health Principles and Practice, following a year of self-directed study alongside his day-to-day role.

Having started his MACO career as a warehouse picker almost 23 years ago, Trevor progressed to Warehouse Supervisor before moving into his current position.

He previously completed IOSH Managing Safely in 2017 and today also supports Health & Safety activities across MACO UK.

Trevor said: “I’ve learnt a lot on the job over the years, but this has given me the confidence to know that I have the knowledge behind that experience. It gives me greater confidence and credibility when talking about health and safety.”

Mark Matthews, Operations Manager at MACO UK added: “Over the years our Health & Safety activities have undergone huge change.

“Systems have been rationalised and made more efficient, monitoring and analysis have become more complete and reliable, and automation has been introduced without losing the essential human element.

“Alongside this, Trevor has developed his Health & Safety knowledge significantly and is now central to our current H&S system.”

“His successful completion of the IOSH Level 3 Certificate endorses both his enthusiasm and his hard work to ensure that MACO remains a safe place for our staff and everyone who may visit.”

The qualification is said to mark another milestone in Trevor’s long career with MACO, and reflects his continued commitment to professional development and workplace safety.

Congratulations Trevor on a fantastic achievement.
