ARBOUR WEEK SEES SENMIN LAUNCH ITS GOING GREEN CAMPAIGN

200 Senmin employees and service providers planted indigenous trees on site in Sasolburg in September.

The SHE team also used the opportunity to shine a light on health, safety and quality generally, particularly in terms of AECI’s risk-based SHE management approach. To support the message, they screened a documentary on the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.

The Chernobyl incident occurred in April 1986 and is considered the worst disaster of its kind in history. It was caused by reactor design flaws and a breach of protocol during a simulated power outage safety test.

After the documentary, everyone shared what they thought went wrong. The SHE team guided the discussion, bringing it back to typical challenges in the workplace. The importance of accountability featured strongly.
