Occupational Health & Safety is one of our core values of business. We recognise that the health and safety of our employees, subcontractors, third parties and visitors is vital to our business success. OH&S is integrated with our business processes spanning people, processes, systems, technologies and facilities. OH&S is driven through top management commitment and Visible Leadership across all levels.

Providing a safe workplace

To achieve our vision of "zero harm" to people, we have provided appropriate technology with stringent operational control practices across all operations. All operations are required systematically to implement a series of fatality prevention directives. The directives were developed by Holcim after an in-depth analysis of the major causes of fatalities and encompass hazard identification, risk assessment and controls, training, and maintenance and emergency procedures.

The ACL OH&S management system further guides this approach. Our health and safety policy has been rolled out across all operations and has been included as a key responsibility in line management and business performance. This policy goes beyond the workplace, to address OH&S issues related to Vehicle and Traffic Safety and home safety issues of our employees and their families. We have made significant progress in workplace and personnel safety by focusing on "Safety Observation Process". This intervention focuses on the behavioural Safety aspect of all personnel. Clear organisational accountabilities are supported by a robust program of training, communication and Risk Management processes. A systematic reporting system enables the top management to evaluate the overall direction and efficacy of the health and safety system and develop strategies for improving it. To that end, we compare our own health and safety results regularly with the goals we have set for ourselves and with available benchmarks for the cement sector.

Regular audits ensure that external and internal regulations/standards are implemented and complied with.
