UDC wins two prestigious safety awards

QNA Doha The United Development Company (UDC) has won two prestigious honours at the 2025 International Safety Awards, presented by the British Safety Council, in recognition of its flagship developments: The Pearl and Gewan Islands. In a statement on Saturday, UDC announced it earned the distinction award for its Gewan Island development and the merit award for The Pearl Island, joining a select group of global organisations recognised among more than 900 participants from around the world, including Europe, the United Kingdom, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, Singapore, and others. The statement added that the achievement highlights UDC's ongoing commitment to fostering a culture of safety as a fundamental pillar of its operations. Over recent years, the company has launched several pioneering occupational health and safety initiatives, including the development of advanced training and prevention policies, implementation of cutting-edge safety monitoring systems across its worksites, and enhancement of emergency response protocols within its real estate projects. Commenting on the recognition, UDC President and Chief Executive Officer of Yasser Al Jaidah said, 'We are proud to receive this international recognition, which reflects our deep commitment to implementing the highest standards of health and safety across all our developments'. He said, 'It also reinforces our continuous efforts to create safe, sustainable work environments and communities, in alignment with our strategic vision and Qatar National Vision 2030.' These awards reaffirm UDC's prominent position as a leader in the real estate development sector, both locally and internationally. The company continues to invest in smart infrastructure, integrate environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards, and elevate the quality of life across its projects. The Pearl and Gewan Islands stand as vibrant examples of integrated, modern communities that embody innovation, safety, and sustainability. UDC remains dedicated to embedding these values throughout every stage of planning, execution, and operation, solidifying its reputation as a responsible and forward-thinking developer.
