Sasol Sustainability Report 2018

2018 HIGHLIGHTS AT A GLANCE In line with our ABAC policy, a set of commitments, principles and standards have been implemented as part of the Sasol supplier application and verification process. These will be fully implemented over a 36-month period to ensure ABAC compliance as per the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), UK Bribery Act and the UNGC Guidelines. We have implemented a process, which screens existing and new suppliers to ensure that they are legally compliant in terms of the Sanction Screening Legislation. Screenings are also being performed on supply purchase orders and deliveries from suppliers. Further, we have engaged with suppliers who deviate from, or do not support, our supplier code of ethics. Our aim is to achieve a commitment to acceptable levels of ethical behaviour and suppliers are being trained on the specific requirements contained in the code. Suppliers need to be Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series (OHSAS) certified and compliance with prescribed environmental standards is a requirement in the supplier accreditation protocol. Suppliers are required to have procedures and records in place for recording and investigating non-conformances to indicate immediate actions taken to avoid problems pending further investigation. Managing our suppliers effectively A large number of opportunities have been identified in the economic transformation environment and to date 30 contracts have been assigned to suppliers in the different regions. 619 Supplier technical and safety audits conducted based on standard Sasol supplier requirements. 360 Suppliers have been trained on the Supplier Code of Ethics and ABAC requirements. Preferential procurement expenditure in the Sasolburg and Secunda regions up from R2,6 billion in 2017. R4,7 billion During the supplier application process, all suppliers need to agree that they will comply with the minimum standard set for supplier safety management. Suppliers agreed to the SHE requirements as part of their contractual commitment. ESG compliance audits are conducted on an ad hoc basis with our material suppliers. Further we conducted a supplier risk analysis to identify potential risks to reliable supply and preventative mitigation actions have been implemented in areas of high risk exposure. A number of risks and mitigation actions have been addressed to ensure continued and uninterrupted support to our business.
