Organised by Inspiresafety Foundation, the LISA Awards 2023 (Lifting Safety Awards) marked a historic milestone in India’s industrial safety landscape. Launched as the first-of-its-kind recognition platform dedicated exclusively to lifting safety excellence, the event honored pioneers and safety leaders transforming lifting operations across construction, infrastructure, manufacturing, logistics, oil & gas, and heavy engineering sectors.
Founded by DK Jamdar, Ex-Deputy Director of the Directorate of Industrial Safety and Health Maharashtra (DISH Maharashtra), Inspiresafety Foundation has consistently championed proactive safety education, industrial compliance awareness, and accident prevention initiatives across India. The launch of the Lifting Safety Awards (LISA Awards) further strengthened this mission by creating a national platform that recognizes organizations, safety officers, lifting supervisors, crane operators, project heads, and companies committed to eliminating or minimizing accidents at construction and industrial sites.
