We will ensure the prevention of injuries and ill health to employees. Management will act on all unsafe acts and conditions reported.

We hold mandatory daily (Tool Box Talks), weekly Visible Felt Leadership (VFL) sessions and monthly Health and Safety Committee sessions (Health, Safety, Security, Community and Environmental) evaluations of safety performance, paying special attention to the safety of our employees in order to encourage them to make sure that they are working safely at all times. This is extremely important to prevent work-related injuries from occurring.

ZAC TAKE 5 SAFETY CHECKLIST

  1. Am I physically and mentally fit for work?

  2. Did I do a physical inspection of my workplace?

  3. Do I have the correct Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for the job?

  4. Have I inspected my tools and equipment and found them in order?

  5. Did I identify all the hazards that can hurt me?

  6. Am I trained and authorised to do the task and/or to operate?

  7. Am I sure it is safe to proceed to work?

    If the answer is yes to all the above questions you can continue to work safely. If not, consult your supervisor and re-do your ZAC Take 5
