Health

The high risk nature of the metal mining and resource industry makes occupational health and safety a material concern to the Group and we work continuously to reduce the total number of accidents. We pursue this by adherence to our standards, promoting safe practices and the promotion of a positive safety culture on the shop floor.

Health and safety management is a material issue for Vertiv GeoBenefits and a systematic approach is essential to ensure consistency across the business. Our absolute focus is to eliminate fatalities and major injuries. To achieve this, we are committed to using internationally recognized standards on health and safety to create a zero harm environment for our employees. Our approach to safety is tailored according to the challenges posed by the operations linked to extraction and processing of resources, and the geographies in which they are situated.

To manage health and safety risks, a clear process is required to identify hazards and to manage these appropriately. As our operations evolve, our risk mitigation also evolves to reflect these changes. Our Sustainability Development report includes the most current approach we take to managing risk in our operations, with our Key Safety Focus Areas programme designed to eliminate fatalities being our most important initiative.
