FGV Annual Report 2020

Group HSE Division that assesses the whole organisation’s safety including occupational health and industrial hygiene protocol assessments that cover systemic challenges, awareness levels, training requirements, ground engagement and other OSH-related matters. In 2019, we continued to implement and improve Tier 2 audits by enabling Safety and Health Officers (SHOs) to conduct Tier 2 audits at their respective worksites. The intent was to maximise the audit coverage and to harness collective action in addressing workplace compliance. Moving forward, we are reviewing the operational OSH audit on ways to provide a structured and focused approach with a view to cultivate safety culture, which we will roll out in 2021. High-level Group OSH champions to demonstrate top management’s commitment as well as to connect with ground-level operations. These were mostly members of the Group HSE Steering Committee. Tier 1 audits are designed to assess the strength of OSH leadership at worksites. 13 Tier 1 audits were carried out at various locations throughout 2018 and 2019. TIER 1 TIER 2 Safety and Health Committees are required to inspect their respective worksites in accordance with the Occupational Safety and Health (Safety and Health Committee) Regulations 1996. TIER 3 In 2020, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and MCO, the OSH audits were halted. AUDITS Our OSH framework advocates prevention. FGV carried out four types of health and safety audits during the year that cover our business operations and workplaces: Operational OSH audits/ Workplace Inspection (WPI) to determine workplace compliance with OSHA 1994 and other related legislation. Management system audits to guide worksite preparation for International Standards Organisation (ISO 45001, ISO 14001) certification. Malaysian Society of Occupational Safety & Health (MSOSH) internal audits to help participating worksites enhance their performance ahead of the MSOSH Award’s external auditor visits. The FGV HSE President’s Award audit to adjudicate entries for the award to determine winners in various categories. WORKPLACE ACCIDENTS FGV is aggressively pursuing the OSH Vision Zero.
