Health and Safety

Sustainability in the industry is founded on responsibility. This starts with responsible operations, providing for the safety of employees and the integrity of the plant. We will not compromise health and safety principles for profit or production.

We comply with all laws and set standards even higher by identifying unacceptable risks. Not only do we provide safe and reliable products, but we incorporate safe practices first and foremost.

The most effective programmes to communicate and encourage employee safety begins with a safety committee.

We are committed to operating in a way that not only protects our people and contractors, but minimises our impact on the environment.

Promoting health awareness at work and at home among our employees, provides long term benefits to our people and our industry. We provide extensive incentives to employees for health preservation.

Basic offerings are:

• Flu shots
• Smoking restrictions
• Drug free work place programmes
• Blood pressure screening
• Personal protective equipment
• HIV/AIDS programmes
• Medical surveillance and
• Safety training
 
We have a certified industrial nurse and a full time Safety Officer on site to oversee hearing conservation, indoor air quality, chemical exposure and personal protection, such as respiratory protection and protective clothing. We also have a medical doctor on site twice a week.
