SUSTAINABILITY REPORT OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH & SAFETY At our workplaces, we adhere and comply to industry requirements in health and safety standards and guidelines. We view health and safety at our facilities as a crucial enabler to ensure the Group’s long-term growth, as any hold-ups in operations due to a failure in health and safety requirements ultimately contributes negatively to our bottom line. GRI-403: Occupational Health & Safety Adhering to International and Local Health and Safety Industry Standards MSM employs industry certified full-time Safety Health Officers (SHO) or representatives at all our refineries, warehouses, distribution and packing centres as well as office premises.

In order to maintain a safe and healthy work environment, we have implemented the following two standards at all our facilities: • Malaysian Standard - MS 1722 Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems (OSHMS) This is a national standard that provides requirements on OSHMS and a basis for the development of Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) systems in an organisation. • International Standard - OHSAS 18001:2007 Occupational Health and Safety Management Systems The Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series (OHSAS) is a standard that is developed by the OHSAS team, an association that includes government agencies, certification bodies, national standards, industry associations and consultants.
