Topics included the safe use of lifting equipment, working at height, safety card renewal, manual material- handling, general safety management, on-site housekeeping and hazard identification. Meanwhile, health talks and awareness training – provided to our employees and contractors – covered issues, such as heart disease, mosquito prevention, alcohol, drugs and smoking. We proactively bolster on-site safety through risk identification, assessment and management. Our internal site-safety professionals perform compliance audits every quarter, and we carry out external audits biannually, as per the Factories and Industrial Undertakings (Safety Management) Regulation. We continued to exempt our contractors from paying standard industry fees levied on claims. This allows us to gather the most reliable information on work-related incidents. We use that information to implement our safety measures and improve our practices to prevent accidents and promote worker safety.
