Hazards Magazine Wins Journalism Award

Hazards MagazineThe team that brings you TUC's Risks each week has just scooped a Workworld Media Award for journalism. The Hazards magazine team received the award, the highest accolade for workplace journalism, for its online coverage. Hazards received the honour from the Work Foundation for an unprecedented second straight year. It beat the BBC and a record field of entries.

Presenting the award last week at a ceremony at Bafta, Baroness Denise Kingsmill said: 'For the second year running, the judges decided to give the award to Hazards for its use of the medium, its depth and seriousness, and its spiky determination to campaign for those at the rough end of working life.'

Other winners this year included BBC business editor Robert Peston, Daily Mail city editor Alex Brummer, and journalists from the Economist, the Observer, the Financial Times and the Guardian.

TUC head of safety Hugh Robertson congratulated the Hazards team. He said: 'Hazards combines high quality news and exclusive features with practical resources and an insatiable appetite for workplace health and safety campaigning. It exposes consistently the wrong-doers and provides unions with the tools to put things right. To again beat some of the best resourced news organisations in the world is a phenomenon feat.'
