Eskom has adopted a value of Zero Harm, requiring all business to be conducted with respect and care for people and the environment.

The OHS risk assessment process ensures that Eskom can proactively identify, predict, evaluate, and control the actual and potential impact on health, safety, environment, socio-economic conditions, and cultural heritage.

This document describes the mandatory processes, requirements, and advisory guidance for managing occupational health and safety hazards and risks.

Compliance with this procedure is mandatory in its area of applicability.

The procedure applies throughout Eskom Holdings SOC Limited, its divisions, subsidiaries, and entities in which Eskom has a controlling interest.

Test the identified risk against safe limits, internal requirements, and external requirements, including legislation and other requirements, limits, and conditions of authorisations issued for that activity, and any other possible requirements to ascertain whether the risk exists or not.

Depending on the risk ranking, determine the degree of control and tolerance against the defined limits.

Determine whether the risk is acceptable; if acceptable, no further assessment is required.

3.3.10 Eliminate and reduce risk

Develop a risk management strategy to treat the impact, consequence, and/or likelihood/exposure of assessed risks.

Establish the actions to be taken (controls), where the highest-order type of preventive measure will be the most effective and sustainable.

Different approaches can be taken that are aligned with the agreed risk-tolerance level.

inspections and reviews to measure compliance.

EDC TN Quality Control 09.05.2022 File name: 32-520 OHS Risk assessment procedure rev.

This attachment is a template for a Contract Quality Plan (CQP) that the successful supplier must complete and maintain. It is not a specification of the works; the actual scope of work is defined in the NEC or FIDIC contract documents. The template guides the supplier in planning how quality requirements will be met, including quality assurance and control activities, documentation, and records.

This document is Eskom's internal procedure for managing substance abuse in the workplace (Unique Identifier: 32-37, Revision 5). It is not a tender specification or scope of work. It sets out rules, testing processes, and responsibilities applicable to anyone entering Eskom premises or work sites, including contractors and their employees.

Eskom enforces a zero-tolerance policy on substance abuse across all its premises and work sites. The procedure (32-37, Rev 5) applies to every employee, contractor, consultant, and visitor while on duty, reporting for duty, or visiting any Eskom site. Key obligations for contractors and their staff include:

• No access to Eskom premises or work sites while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or if intoxicated.
• No consumption, possession, sale, or storage of alcohol or drugs (unless prescribed) on Eskom premises or while on Eskom business.
• No permitting another person to work if suspected to be under the influence.
• Mandatory compliance with requests for random or specific alcohol or drug screening/testing. Refusal may result in an adverse inference that the person is under the influence.
• Any person using legal medication that may impair faculties or safe work performance must inform the line manager for a fitness-for-duty assessment.
• Testing may be conducted at any time, including start of shifts, after breaks, during site visits, after hours, weekends, or public holidays.
• Positive screening results lead to immediate confirmation testing; a second confirmation test is done 30 minutes later. A result above 0.000 mg/1000 ml BAC is recorded as positive.
• Persons testing positive are not permitted to remain on site or operate Eskom vehicles/equipment, and must be safely transported home.
• Contractors and visitors who test positive must have their manager or organisation arrange transport.
• Disciplinary action applies to Eskom employees; contractors face consequences per their own management.
• All testing equipment must be calibrated per manufacturer specifications at least every six months, with records kept in a dedicated register.
• Testers and screeners must be formally appointed and trained, with refresher training every two years.

Eskom's SHEQ Policy underpins its approach to occupational health, safety, environment and quality. Incident management aims to reduce risk, prevent recurrence, manage incidents effectively, classify and record accurately, investigate promptly, promote near-miss reporting, improve OHS by learning from incidents, share information, report to stakeholders, analyse trends, and involve all stakeholders. It is not for assigning blame or monitoring performance, but for identifying improvements. Eskom is committed to Zero Harm.

The incident management process follows these steps: 1) Incident identification (direct and indirect observation), 2) Initiation and execution of emergency response (rescue, scene safety, first aid, evidence collection), 3) Notification and reporting to stakeholders (internal and external, including fatalities and occupational diseases), 4) Incident prioritisation using consequence and likelihood matrices to assign priority ratings, 5) Classification and recording of incidents on SAP EH&S (including work-relatedness determination and classification of occupational diseases), 6) Incident investigation (including root cause analysis, investigation committees, and reporting timelines), 7) Management of corrective actions, 8) Incident close-out, and 9) Incident communication throughout the process.

All investigation reports are controlled disclosure documents. All health and safety incidents must be investigated, excluding non-work-related incidents outside workplace boundaries. Repeat incidents must consider ineffective corrective actions from previous incidents. Investigation reports must include incident details, consequences, risk of recurrence, direct and root causes, system failures, corrective actions, lessons learnt and recommendations. Contractor investigations may involve Eskom employees; requests for evidence from Eskom must be evaluated by the employee's manager, with Legal and Compliance guidance if needed.

This is the Eskom Occupational Health and Safety Incident Management Procedure (32-95, Rev 9). It defines the process for managing OHS incidents: identification, emergency response, notification, prioritisation, classification, recording, investigation, corrective actions, close-out, and communication. It applies to all Eskom entities, employees, contractors, and affected public. Key definitions include accident, fatality, first-aid injury, lost-time injury, medical injury, OHS event, near-miss, occupational disease, public incident, PRFI, and serious incident. Responsible Managers must implement, communicate, and monitor compliance. Incidents must be recorded on SAP EH&S.

In joint ventures, each company is liable for its own contraventions and may be prosecuted in its own name. Legal notification requirements include reporting to the Compensation Commissioner and the Department of Employment and Labour. On receiving a summons or notification under OHS Act sections 31 or 32, or where liability is possible, the Legal Department must be contacted immediately regarding attorney appointment; if not required, a detailed motivation must be provided without delay.

Compliance with the Eskom PPE Standard (240-44175132) is mandatory. PPE must be issued free of charge. Non-compliant contractor employees must stop work immediately and leave the site; if PPE was issued, the employee is suspended and consequence management applied. If the company failed to issue PPE, work stops until PPE is provided and an NCR is issued. Eskom employees not complying must stop work until an inquiry determines facts; willful failure to use issued PPE leads to consequence management.

Purpose: reaffirm and clarify roles, responsibilities, and consequence management for PPE compliance for all contractor employees and Eskom Peaking employees, ensuring consistent application of the Eskom PPE Standard (240-44175132).

Contract Custodians must:

• Include the PPE Standard in all Pricing Schedules/Bills of Quantities (BoQ) and enforce compliance.
• Identify minimum PPE requirements for contractor employees based on contract duration.
• Include non-compliance clauses in new contracts to prevent contractors from charging standing time due to work stoppage.
• Ensure contractors apply consequence management for non-compliant employees.

Contractor Companies must:

• Issue PPE based on risk assessments.
• Ensure PPE procured complies with the Eskom PPE Standard (240-44175132).
• Regularly inspect employee PPE for suitability and compliance.
• Provide training on PPE usage and maintenance.
• Apply consequence management for non-compliant employees.
• Sign off on PPE verification.
• Ensure PPE is issued free of charge as per General Safety Regulations.

Safety Department must:

• Ensure PPE costs are included in tender Pricing Schedules/BoQs.
• Create awareness on PPE compliance and Eskom procedure requirements through SHE induction.
• Conduct contractor audits and inspections to monitor PPE compliance.
