where they intersect with physical workplace safety.

contractors undertaking work-related travel.

use) already collected through Facilities & Administration operations, to inform both

operational decision-making and the ESG Officer's enterprise environmental reporting.

Training and Capacity Building

evacuation marshal training sufficient to cover Moniepoints locations, offices, repair

centres, and warehouses.
