Sasol Sustainability Report 2018

The implementation of the focus areas is supported by the rollout of a change management programme as well as a toolkit with performance requirements per focus area. We believe that quick wins from the programme can be achieved with the disciplined implementation of the pre-task risk assessment and life saving rules, of which more detail is shared below and on the following page. Pre-task risk assessment: Before the task begins, supervisors check in with their teams to evaluate employees’ emotional well being . Employees with well being concerns are supported to ensure they are not at risk when executing tasks. Supervisors share learning from previous tasks and ensure team members' understanding of relevant life saving rules and critical controls. A formal pre-task risk assessment is done for high risk tasks, or a verbal pre-task risk assessment is conducted for low risk tasks. During task execution, focus is given to life saving rules and critical controls . The task is stopped when the risk changes or an incident occurs and a new pre-task risk assessment is conducted. After the task, lessons learned during execution and from near misses are shared and evaluated. Response to safety incidents A senior executive safety workshop was conducted as a necessary intervention to evaluate industry best practices and strengthen the standardised approach to prevent fatalities and high severity injuries (HSI) across the Group. Four focus areas (below) were identified which form the basis of our HSI programme. By managing SHE risks, coupled with the provision of assurance that the causes of HSIs are understood and that learning from these are assimilated in our organisation, we aim to avoid repeat incidents. The HSI programme is centred on the elimination of fatalities and the prevention of HSIs as part of an intensive effort to achieve our goal of zero harm. Identification, mitigation and communication of hazards during pre-task risk assessments and consistent field verification of critical controls Understanding how mindset and human behaviour influence safety performance Standardisation and disciplined implementation of Life Saving Rules Ensuring consistent sharing, implementation and embedment of SHE incident learnings to eliminate repeat incidents Preventing fatalities and HSI focus areas SAFETY, SOCIAL AND ETHICS (continued) Sasol Sustainability Report 2018 6
