MICROmega SUBSIDIARY AWARDED TENDER BY TRANSNET RAIL ENGINEERING
MICROmega Holdings Limited`s subsidiary company NOSA (Pty) Ltd ("NOSA") has
secured a national tender for the provision of a Working at Heights solution
from Transnet Rail Engineering ("Transnet").
Greg Morris Chief Executive Officer of MICROmega states "This contract is
strategically significant for NOSA. Whilst NOSA has for the past 61 years
been providing occupational health, safety and environmental training and
auditing services, it has identified opportuniites where the skills within
the business and the credibility of the NOSA brand will enable it to gain
market share in other aspects of the industry. This new division, Working at
Heights, is a good example of one such opportunity."
In terms of South Africa`s Occupational Health and Safety Act, 1993. all
work done at an elevation of 2 metres and higher requires a fall protection
plan. The fall protection plan requires equipment, training, procedures and
methods to address relevant risks. This all forms part of a Working at
Heights solution.
"We have been very pleased with the demand we have received for the Working
at Heights solutions we offer. This particular contract is the result of
many years of demonstrated capability with Transnet and we are extremely
proud to have Transnet as a client. Transnet are committed to enforcing
occupational health and safety standards in a sustainable and effective
manner and this is well observed in their disabling incident frequency rate"
said NOSA MD Justin Hobday.
NOSA, in addition to opening a Working at Heights division, have also been
approved in terms of General Safety Regulation 3(4)(d) of the Occupational
Health and Safety Act, 1993 to issue certificates of competency in First Aid
Level 1, 2 and 3.
