Occupational health and safety

The Group maintains a strong focus on procedures and compliance with these. Measures to protect all employees are vital. This is a perpetual process moving us forward to our vision of zero injuries.

The Group has developed its own nonconformance reporting system where all injuries, near misses and accidents are recorded and followed up with a root cause analysis.

The Group uses these results to improve and to prevent injuries from re-occurring as well as highlight areas that require further attention . One of the most important things for us is to record near misses so we can prevent injuries from occurring.

We aim to have zero workplace injuries and will never compromise on our employees’ safety.
