Employee turnover in the

Plantation

and

Bulking Divisions

relates primarily to abscondments and resignations,

respectively; the majority of whom are engaged in physical

labour where traditionally the employee turnover has

been high. Improving retention is a critical priority for the

Plantation Division and as such, the division has ramped up

efforts in building and upgrading workers’ living quarters

and estate infrastructure which are complete with basic

amenities, sundry shops, recreational spaces, places of

worship and internet connection as well as providing rewards

for performers.

Occupational Safety & Health

Operating safely, sustainably and responsibly remains

integral to us and contributes towards the long-term success

of our business. Our aim is to continually build and instil

both a company and industry culture that protects people

from harm and improves their health and wellbeing.

Towards this end, we comply with all the relevant national

laws, regulations and other requirements relating to best

practices in occupational safety and health; and continuously

carry out activities aimed at preventing workplace injuries.

Preventive and scheduled maintenance is regularly

performed on all the Group’s facilities, plants, storage

tanks and terminals; whereupon repairs and replacements

are made when necessary or appropriate. In addition,

contractors and third party service providers working for and

employed by the Group are responsible for knowing and

complying with all applicable laws, regulations, approvals or

permits relating to the work they are doing for the Group.

Those found to be in breach of these requirements would be

subjected to suspension and/or termination of their services.

Employees who use any machinery are trained to do so

correctly, while training programs in the use of personal

protective equipment for workers handling or exposed to

hazardous materials are conducted regularly and will continue

to be a vital part of the Group’s operations. All division’s have

health and safety committees which consist of divisional

management and employees. It is to these committees that

incidences are reported, and where compliance with policies

is monitored, and improvements are discussed.
