Our occupational health strategy and management approach are governed by a series of standards, guidelines, and assurance processes to prevent harm to our employees. We believe that to achieve wellness we must holistically address all aspects of our lives.

Our approach is driven by two distinct disciplines: occupational hygiene and occupational medicine.

Occupational hygiene focuses on proactively identifying and controlling the sources of our employees’ exposure to health hazards in the workplace while profiling the associated risks. We have implemented engineering, administrative and control measures to mitigate risks to our employees. Employees attend training in the correct and effective use and replacement of personal protective equipment (PPE).

Occupational medicine entails monitoring our employees’ health. Our medical surveillance programmes incorporate screening for common lifestyle diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, cholesterol, and obesity. We also record the health baseline of each employee and monitor their health throughout their employment to ensure focused interventions are used to assist them in maintaining good health.
