The Group’s health and safety record compares favourably with other major mining operations in South Africa and internationally, a factor which has been consistently recognised by the Department of Minerals and Energy not only in relation to dimensional stone quarrying, but to the mining industry as a whole.
The Group ensures the protection of health and wellbeing of our employees, local communities and other stakeholders, as well as operating several onsite clinics and training programs to manage occupational health risks which we extend to adjacent communities.
The combination of detailed risk assessment, the introduction of comprehensive operating procedures and a zero tolerance to non-conformance has enabled the staff to attain and consistently improve on world class safety standards. The Group’s safety programs are focused on eliminating serious injuries by identifying the hazards and developing injury prevention behaviours and procedures. Our aim is to educate and equip all employees with the tools and expertise to perform their roles safely and promote safety in the workplace.
