HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITMENT

The ProVest Group envisages injury-free production as a result of safe working environments for all employees. To this end, we ensure that our employees are up to date with the latest safety standards and procedures.

Operationally, we are committed to:

  • Implementing our own internal safety systems, in addition to mine-specific safety systems
  • Placing our employees’ health and safety above all else
  • Continually training our employees to work safely and securely
  • Adhering to our clients’ on-mine safety requirements; and
  • Abiding by the regulations of the Mine Health and Safety Act.

SAFETY & QUALITY ASSURANCE

The ProVest Group is ISO 9001:2015 SACAS-certified for our Quality Management System.

We have a robust internal safety and quality assurance function, staffed by a team of experts. Our focus falls on working to mitigate the top five workplace risks, while entrenching practical knowledge of Sections 22 and 23 of the Mine Health and Safety Act. At the same time, bottom-up incident reporting is used weekly to identify areas for behaviour or systems improvement.

OUR SAFETY COMPLIANCE SYSTEM

At the ProVest Group, our safety compliance system ensures that we contribute to a zero-harm environment. Each site manager and supervisor compiles a safety roster for the month ahead, featuring predetermined safety indicators. We also conduct monthly audits – both surface and underground – to measure compliance.The results of these are presented at our monthly Group Exco meetings, where solutions and actions are devised to deal with non-compliance.
