At Lusaka Telecom Solutions, we recognize that employees are the cornerstone of our business and make
our success possible. We believe that protecting their health and ensuring their safety can make a
significant difference to their working and personal lives, and ultimately enhance our productivity as a
business. We recognize that by integrating sound environmental, health, and safety management
practices into all aspects of our business, we can offer technologically innovative products and services
while conserving and enhancing resources for future generations.
Lusaka Telecom strives for continuous improvement in our environmental, health, and safety
management systems and in the environmental quality of our products, processes, and services.
It is our aim to provide our employees with a safe working environment and manage any potential and
actual risks to their health in our day-to-day business, by:
• Complying with applicable national and local laws, regulations and codes of best practice regarding
occupational health and safety.
• Establishing and revising carefully considered occupational health and safety programs in accordance
with the ISO 45001:2018 standard and other international benchmarks for health and safety applicable
to our business.
• Identifying health and safety risks in the workplace and striving to control and mitigate such risks to
achieve continual improvement in our health and safety performance.
• Developing specific systems, practices and procedures to prevent accidents and, if they occur, to
manage them responsibly and carefully investigate the causes with the aim of introducing measures
to prevent them recurring.
• Appointing a committee responsible for setting measurable objectives on health and safety, carrying
out periodic reviews of our health and safety practices and performance to guide their continual
improvement and development.
• Informing suppliers and business partners of the policy and its requirements, analyzing and auditing
the performance of contractors from a health and safety perspective and considering the health and
safety record of such parties as a part of their selection criteria.
• Ensuring that employees take responsibility for their own safety and actions; including by providing
relevant employees with training on health and safety issues and by making employees aware of their
rights and responsibilities under applicable policies and procedures.
• Sharing health and safety knowledge and good practice across the group.
This policy has been communicated to all group operations, which may adopt their own policies and
procedures from time to time in a manner which is consistent with the values and objectives of this
policy.
