Health & safety manager with Riverside Mechanical since 2018, Alan Bolton was nominated by his employer for bringing professional credentials and real empathy and care for his team to the role. Identifying a requirement for support outside working hours, Alan has been instrumental in extending mental health services to employees. Described as “like a councillor to those around him”, he has even posted his personal phone number on the canteen notice board to offer support. Alan set up a Wellness at Work initiative, offering gym subsidies, fresh fruit and the Spectrum Life Health Programme range of mental health and wellbeing services including counselling sessions for staff and family, financial advice clinics and digital gyms. Active in fundraising across a variety of charities including SharingPoint, helping people with addictions to alcohol, drugs or gambling and their families, colleagues commented that he never stops. Riverside Mechanical said, “He has always shown great character and determination in his role. Alan cuts through the bravado that may be there on construction sites and really gets to the heart of how everyone is. Alan has developed an excellent rapport with clients, sub-contractors and staff alike and we are genuinely honoured to have such a valuable asset on the team. He is genuinely loved by all.” L-R: Louise Duffy, host, with Mike Murphy, Flogas (sponsor), Alan Bolton, Riverside Mechanical, and Colm O’Regan, host.
