Tropicana maintains a high level of concern for the safety of our site employees and workers who are not employees but work on project sites controlled by the Group. Our operations are guided by regulations and standards by the Department of Occupational Safety and Health (“DOSH”) and CIDB on matters related to site safety and health, and most of our site has a Safety Plan enforced, with a Safety O cer/Supervisor onsite. All parties that entered our project site grounds were required to wear personal protective equipment (“PPE”) at all times and site workers were provided with specialised protective equipment in line with specific job functions such as working at height, confined spaces or handling chemicals. The Group performed its due diligence with regard to OSH matters via the project team monitoring the safety reports produced by the contractors we engage with and conducting regular assessments of on-site safety. We have weekly safety training programs and also weekly toolbox meetings conducted at our construction sites. All our Group Health & Safety processes and policies adhere to all relevant regulatory and legislative guidelines, i.e., the Occupational Safety & Health Act (“OSHA”) 1994 as transcribed by the Department of Safety & Health (“DOSH”), Factories and Machinery Act 1967, Construction Development Board Act 1994 and applicable standards associated to the safety, health and well-being of our employees. We set a target of a safe and healthy workplace with a target fatality rate of 0 (zero tolerance) annually, due to preventative and mitigation measures taken, while all injuries or near misses are treated with utmost priority. During the year under review, we recorded zero (0) fatalities in our operational area.
