Occupational Health and Safety training is of key importance for providing employees with the knowledge, skills and awareness needed to identify and mitigate potential hazards in the workplace. By investing in comprehensive training programmes, the Company demonstrates its commitment to protecting the well-being of its employees and developing a culture of safety.

Highlights:

• 552 engineering and technical employees were trained on OHS,
• Regulations for organising and testing knowledge on OHS for employees were drawn up,
• A safety induction meeting was conducted for 1,323 employees, trainees and others.

As a way to strengthen the mechanism for training employees on industrial safety, the Company adopted the Regulations on the Organization of Training and Testing of Knowledge on Occupational Safety, which establishes a unified and mandatory procedure for training and testing of knowledge on occupational safety among workers, managers, and specialists of structural business-units of Navoiyuran SE involved in organising and carrying out production activities. Preliminary training on occupational safety, provided for by the Occupational Safety Rules for mining operations (open-pit mining, drill hole in-situ leaching, etc.), is carried off-the-job, in the training classes of the enterprise. It includes a mandatory knowledge check by the commission appointed by order for the enterprise business-unit documenting the results in the minutes. This process covers all employees and specialists on a contractual basis, creating a unified standard to maintain a high level of occupational safety in the Company.

In the reporting year, OHS training was conducted for 552 employees of the Company’s engineering and technical staff, and induction training was conducted by the Occupational Health and Safety Service for 1,323 people, including employees and trainees of the Company.
