Sasol will be hosting a training Product Transportation Offsite Emergency Response Exercise & Community Roadshows from the 5th to the 8th of June 2023 at various locations in Limpopo province together with multiple key stakeholders.
This exercise is aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of the Sasol Customer Demand Fulfilment (CDF) Departments’ Outbound Logistics Offsite Emergency Plan. The secondary objective of the exercise is to create awareness about Sasol’s products and Emergency Response (ER) processes to the public. The various planned scenarios will depict possible real-life incidents and the emergency services reaction thereof. These Emergency Response exercises serve to enhance our governance processes in terms of product stewardship throughout the product lifecycle.
“This ER is a clear demonstration of how as Sasol, we continue to remain duty bound to our values of safety, being a caring citizen, stakeholder inclusivity and accountability, says Phinda Vilakazi, Senior Vice President: Commercial Energy Solutions. “The exercise enables Sasol to adhere to global occupational safety standards, while limiting an adverse impact on the environment”.
Vilakazi further points out Sasol’s commitment to deeply embed a world class safety culture at every touch point with its various stakeholders in the product delivery value-chain. “This exercise will be a collaborative effort which will include strategically selected partners such as Sasol OMEs, government, industry partners, service providers, business community, local communities as well as NGOs to ensure that all relevant parties are always well prepared and fully aware on how to respond should an emergency incident occur”.
