extend the validity of its tender is not a representation that the tender is an acceptable
tender or that Eskom will seek to negotiate or conclude a contract with the tenderer. If the
validity of tenders expires before contracts have been concluded, the procurement process
is deemed to have concluded without an award.

Details of the meeting(s) are stated in the Tender Data. Tenderers are entitled to ask
correction of errors as required above.

information/documents provided indicate that the level is in dispute (fraudulent/ expired)
then the tender will be disqualified.
However, for the purposes of PPPFA point allocation: if no B-BBEE certificate/affidavit is

supplier and is wholly owned by the South African Government. Eskom’s key role is to assist in
lowering the cost of doing business in South Africa, enabling economic growth and security of supply
through providing electricity in an efficient and sustainable manner, including its generation,
transmission and distribution, while ensuring that this is done within acceptable benchmark
standards.
Eskom generates and distributes approximately 95% of the electricity used in South Africa and
approximately 40% of the electricity used on the rest of the African continent. Approximately 90% of
Eskom’s production is coming from coal.
Eskom aims to comply with the legislation, policies, conditions and requirements of key government
stakeholders, including spheres of government.
Eskom is currently moving away from operating as a vertically integrated company that supplies
electricity to South Africa and the Southern African Development Community (SADC) region. As the
main provider of generation, transmission and distribution capacity in South Africa, Eskom supplies
electricity to industrial, mining, commercial, agricultural and residential customers, as well as to
redistributors.
In doing so, Eskom’s mission is to provide sustainable electricity solutions to grow the economy and
improve the quality of life of the people in South Africa and in the region.
Eskom is committed to safety, health, the environment and quality principles to ensure that no
operating condition or urgency of service justifies exposing anyone to negative risks arising out of
Eskom’s business, causing an incident with health, safety, environmental and quality consequences.
This Safety, Health, Environment & Quality (SHEQ) Policy governs principles and rules to fulfil
Eskom’s commitment to people, the environment and quality.
Eskom’s operations are underpinned by the organisation’s vision, mission and values.

The SHEQ Policy and its implementation aims to ensure commitment to the Eskom vision, values
and the sustainability principles. Zero Harm means ensuring that the Eskom operational activities
do not inflict harm on Eskom’s assets, its employees, contractors and members of the public affected
by its operations, and the environment in terms of compliance obligations. Zero Harm is a value,
which the organisation will strive towards by operating within its compliance obligations/legal and
other requirements, continual improvement against set intended outcomes and reduction of its
environmental footprint by avoiding incidents and minimising environmental degradation. The SHEQ
Policy also aims to achieve Zero Defects.
The implementation of this policy will be in line with the abovementioned values, which underpin the
way Eskom operates.

improve performance and achieve stakeholder requirements.
Eskom’s commitment to safety, health, environment, and quality management is achieved through:

Description
Source: 5. Eskom life-saving rules.pdfEskom and its subsidiaries will conduct business with respect and care for people to ensure that no
operating condition or urgency of service endangers the life of anyone or causes injury or damage
to the environment. Eskom is committed to preventing all work-related injuries. In fulfilling this
commitment to protect people, the environment and property, management will provide and
maintain a safe and healthy work environment, in accordance with industry standards and in
compliance with legislative requirements.
At-risk behaviour leads to incidents. Life-saving Rules are safety rules that have been created to
enforce zero tolerance for serious at-risk behaviours. These rules have been determined in terms
of the consequences of the behaviours they describe, that is, if a particular set of behaviours or
actions has a very high probability of causing disabilities or fatalities when performed.
The Eskom Life-saving Rules complement our existing safety best practices and are safety rules to
be followed at all locations.
The Life-saving Rules apply to all Eskom employees, agents, consultants, and contractors. Visitors
to Eskom should also respect and adhere to these rules as applicable and could be instructed to
leave the Eskom premises with immediate effect should they refuse to do so.
2.1 Scope
This standard shall apply at all Eskom sites with the intention to promote a safe working
environment for all Eskom employees, agents, consultants, and contractors. Visitors to Eskom
should also respect and adhere to these rules, as applicable.
2.1.1 Purpose
This standard clarifies the five most prominent causes of serious injuries and fatalities within
Eskom, and Eskom’s intention to enforce “ZERO TOLERANCE” with respect to non-adherence to
these rules, due to the potential consequences of serious injury or fatality at the workplace.
2.1.2 Applicability
This standard shall apply throughout Eskom Holdings SOC Limited, its divisions, subsidiaries, and
entities wherein Eskom has a controlling interest and/or Eskom contractors, unless specifically
exempted by Sustainability Systems, where the business transacted may be of a completely
different nature to the core business of Eskom.
2.1.3 Effective date
This document will be effective from the date of authorisation.

respect to behaviour resulting in serious risk to an individual at the workplace.
It must be noted that the content of this standard does not detract from the requirements for safe
behaviour for all other work-related activities or other safety requirements, but emphasises the
importance thereof.

standards and procedures. Outline the key principles or rules to support the implementation of the
standard statement.
3.2 Consequences of violating a Life-Saving Rule
In terms of general health and safety in Eskom, if any of the Life-saving Rules are violated, it will
be treated as a serious misconduct, and result in a disciplinary process in accordance with the
Eskom Disciplinary Code and Procedure.
It must be highlighted that Eskom takes a ZERO TOLERANCE stance to violation of these rules.
Depending on the circumstances, Eskom reserves the right, where a contractor
manager/supervisor allows the violation of a Life-saving Rule, to suspend the contractor’s activities
while determining an appropriate sanction.
In the light of a contractor employee allegedly violating a Life-saving Rule, the contractor shall
immediately remove the employee from site and initiate the disciplinary process. The contractor
shall investigate any violation of a Life-saving Rule and initiate the disciplinary process within five
(5) working days of the violation. The contractor shall after the disciplinary process furnish Eskom
with a copy of the sanction.

Source: 5. Eskom life-saving rules.pdf (unknown)Eskom and its subsidiaries will conduct business with respect and care for people to ensure that no
operating condition or urgency of service endangers the life of anyone or causes injury or damage
to the environment. Eskom is committed to preventing all work-related injuries. In fulfilling this
commitment to protect people, the environment and property, management will provide and
maintain a safe and healthy work environment, in accordance with industry standards and in
compliance with legislative requirements.
At-risk behaviour leads to incidents. Life-saving Rules are safety rules that have been created to
enforce zero tolerance for serious at-risk behaviours. These rules have been determined in terms
of the consequences of the behaviours they describe, that is, if a particular set of behaviours or
actions has a very high probability of causing disabilities or fatalities when performed.
The Eskom Life-saving Rules complement our existing safety best practices and are safety rules to
be followed at all locations.
The Life-saving Rules apply to all Eskom employees, agents, consultants, and contractors. Visitors
to Eskom should also respect and adhere to these rules as applicable and could be instructed to
leave the Eskom premises with immediate effect should they refuse to do so.
2.1 Scope
This standard shall apply at all Eskom sites with the intention to promote a safe working
environment for all Eskom employees, agents, consultants, and contractors. Visitors to Eskom
should also respect and adhere to these rules, as applicable.
2.1.1 Purpose
This standard clarifies the five most prominent causes of serious injuries and fatalities within
Eskom, and Eskom’s intention to enforce “ZERO TOLERANCE” with respect to non-adherence to
these rules, due to the potential consequences of serious injury or fatality at the workplace.
2.1.2 Applicability
This standard shall apply throughout Eskom Holdings SOC Limited, its divisions, subsidiaries, and
entities wherein Eskom has a controlling interest and/or Eskom contractors, unless specifically
exempted by Sustainability Systems, where the business transacted may be of a completely
different nature to the core business of Eskom.

standard statement.
3.2 Consequences of violating a Life-Saving Rule
In terms of general health and safety in Eskom, if any of the Life-saving Rules are violated, it will
be treated as a serious misconduct, and result in a disciplinary process in accordance with the
Eskom Disciplinary Code and Procedure.
It must be highlighted that Eskom takes a ZERO TOLERANCE stance to violation of these rules.
Depending on the circumstances, Eskom reserves the right, where a contractor
manager/supervisor allows the violation of a Life-saving Rule, to suspend the contractor’s activities
while determining an appropriate sanction.
In the light of a contractor employee allegedly violating a Life-saving Rule, the contractor shall
immediately remove the employee from site and initiate the disciplinary process. The contractor
shall investigate any violation of a Life-saving Rule and initiate the disciplinary process within five
(5) working days of the violation. The contractor shall after the disciplinary process furnish Eskom
with a copy of the sanction.
