Solakonferansen Safety Award was established in 1993 with one goal - to focus on the fact that investing in safety and environmental protection is socially profitable, and to stimulate increased efforts in this area.

The prize can, according to the board's decision, be awarded to a company, organization, institution or person who has documented a special effort to improve safety and / or the environment within aviation activities.

The award ceremony takes place annually in connection with Solakonferansen.
