2024 UEM Edgenta Annual Report

Goal Zero To achieve our ambition of Goal Zero—eliminating workplace incidents, illnesses, environmental harm, and noncompliance—we emphasise continuous improvement in our HSSE culture. This commitment is underpinned by our comprehensive Quality, Health, Safety, Security, and Environment (QHSSE) Policy, which serves as the cornerstone of our efforts. We successfully maintained ISO 9001:2015, ISO 45001:2018, and ISO 14001:2015 certifications, reflecting our adherence to global standards in quality, occupational health and safety, and environmental management. We strive to embed responsible behaviours throughout our operations and engaging all levels of the organisation in advancing these priorities. We have implemented a robust Occupational Health and Safety Management System aligned with the Occupational Health and Safety Act 1994, Environmental Quality Act 1974, Factories and Machineries Act 1967, Fire Services (BOMBA) Act 1988 and its regulations as well as other relevant HSSE legal requirements, industrial code of practice and guidelines alongside international standards. Our HSSE Manual has been further strengthened with additional sections focusing on environmental compliance, fatigue management, road safety, and operational safety. Emergency preparedness and response systems are key components of our approach, complemented by training programmes that encourage environmental awareness and sustainable practices. We have embedded the “12 Life Saving Rules” across our operations to minimise the risk of serious injuries and fatalities. Our hazard identification and risk management framework include methodologies such as Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and Risk Control (HIRARC), Job Hazard Analysis (JHA), and Ergonomic Risk Assessment (ERA), enabling us to mitigate risks associated with live traffic, working at heights, and fatigue-related incidents. To ensure the effectiveness of these measures, we rely on a team of qualified professionals, including Safety and Health Officers (SHO), Site Safety Supervisors (SSS), certified Environmental Professionals in Scheduled Waste Management (CEPSWAM), Ergonomic Trained Persons, and Occupational Health Doctors (OHD), who conduct thorough reviews in line with their respective areas of expertise. We continuously refine our processes to meet global standards and uphold best practices, ensuring our people and partners can contribute to a safer and more sustainable future. By integrating health and safety principles into every aspect of our operations, we reinforce our commitment to delivering high-quality services while prioritising the physical and emotional well-being of our workforce. 167 ENHANCING VALUE THROUGH SUSTAINABILITY
