Health and Safety<br />

At our IFO production site in Ngombe, where we work with<br />

approximately 1’000 people, it is a daily challenge to reach out to<br />

each, single employee in order to ensure that they stay safe and<br />

healthy. Good practices, best protective equipment, safety signs<br />

inside the factory, physical health are each equally important. Most<br />

important is, training staff to intervene whenever they notice<br />

something that may be improved, so as to prevent accidents before<br />

something happens.<br />

With this in mind, we are regularly updating our safety procedures, to<br />

ensure that safety culture becomes a state of mind. Company<br />

safety trainings continue well beyond working hours and employees<br />

take their knowledge home, back to their private households, where<br />

it leads to better and safer living conditions.<br />

Compared to 2014, the rise in recorded incidents actually resulted in<br />

small 'first aid' injuries, with 12% less severe injuries and zero<br />

fatalities.<br />
