Environmental Health and Safety has become an integral part of the company’s growth strategy, NMC’s commitment to setting high occupational health and safety standards is not as much motivated by compliance to the Occupational Health and Safety Act, sophisticated clients and changing procurement systems, but principally the company’s commitment to its people.
The company believes that a rigid implementation on a formal basis of its safety policy, by both management and site staff, results in a safer working environment for all. The success of its ZERO HARM is very much dependent on its site teams and staff, and their buy-in and commitment enjoys support at the highest level. The company has an outstanding safety history with a 95% average in the 2009 MBA Audits and its site teams’ dedication to EHS and commitment to the ZERO HARM policy is what sets NMC apart as a great team which truly cares and respects its people.
NMC values the general health and wellbeing of its employees and is committed to several initiatives promoting a healthy, happy and productive workforce, this dovetails the company’s commitment to Balance within the NMC culture.
The company has a comprehensive safety manual designed to facilitate operational accident prevention pre-planning and reinforcing hazard education at each level.
NMC is extremely proud of the outstanding results achieved by the SACD and Eikestad Mall teams in the 2009 MBA National Safety Competition. SACD won the category R150 – 200million with Eikestad attaining a 2′nd position in the Category R500 million plus. The 2009 MBA Western Cape Safety Competition results indicate that NMC has maintained its high on-site safety standard, more importantly they indicate that the Safety Dvision has succeeded in transferring NMC’s values to its subsidiaries, Limelight Fenestration and Llevell Laser Floors who both, as first time entrants, attained a 2′nd positin in their respective cagegories.
