Conack safety winners December 2025
Not one but five winners last month! Congratulations to…
Safety in action at MSD Dunboyne (1 to 4). It’s great to recognise a number of standout safety contributions on site:
1) George Amihaesei (Connaught) was presented with an iPad by Jacobs’ Evan Kelly (Construction Supervisor) as the first name out of the hat in a December draw for on-the-tools personnel who submitted a Safety Observation via the Tapin app. In the spirit of Christmas, two vouchers were also awarded to the next names drawn — Alex Bolog (Connaught) and Sergiu Purcel (Conack).
2) Michael Barrett (Connaught) received a safety voucher from Pat Conway for his all-round excellence — from safe plant operation and exemplary PPE standards to timely GA2 completion, respect for archaeological elements, and his consistent willingness to step up when needed.
Well done to everyone involved for reinforcing Conack’s commitment to safety, collaboration, and the highest standards on site.
We are proud to have such a skilled and safety-conscious team working for Connaught helping us to achieve our project goals. Keep up the excellent work!

4) Tommie O’Donnell (Connaught) was awarded a safety voucher following a safe practice observed by Jacobs EHS. His simple yet effective adaptation while scabbling concrete helps maintain good posture and reduce HAV exposure — a strong example of practical, worker-led safety thinking.
