Description
Source: 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 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.

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 Lifewhile 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.

Technical Specifications
Source: 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 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.

activity, and as a result all precautions must be taken to prevent incidents while working at height.
Wherever reasonably practicable, preference must be given to the performance of work at ground
level as opposed to work in an elevated position. Where work in an elevated position is necessary,
the requirements in this document shall apply.

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 Lifewhile 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.
