In order to guide the implementation efforts required by this policy, the Group Chief Executives, Business Line Leaders and Regional Leaders will collaborate to establish Safety, Health and Environmental (SH&E) programs that:

• Comply with all applicable safety, health and environmental rules and regulations at the local, state, provincial and national level
• Meet client requirements
• Where no specific regulation exists, comply with Nomfundo Exploration & Consulting (Pty) Ltd standards and appropriate industry practices
• Report on performance relative to short- and long-term SH&E metrics designed to help achieve established goals
• Recognize those who contribute to their improved SH&E Performance
• Consult with, listen to, and respond to employees, customers and partners in order to continuously improve their SH&E performance. The establishment of formal SH&E committees, with documented charters, is recognized as an effective tool for this purpose

All employees will be responsible for:

• Conducting themselves in accordance with directives, standards and procedures established by the applicable SH&E program
• Temporarily suspending their personal work activities and requesting guidance from their supervisor before continuing a task when they identify a condition or practice that creates a serious safety, health or environmental risk
