SASOL IN SOCIETY 2023
Sasol has bought a three-ton forklift and sponsored
Wood SA, an engineering and project management
consultancy, to provide support and expertise
to the Germiston manufacturing plant. As part of
this process, SHE (Safety, Health and Environment)
and technical assessments have been completed.
Further studies, including geotechnical studies,
are being recommended.
As part of our impact on Sustainable Development
Goals, we joined forces with Ramtsilo to work
on the Hennops Revival project. Together, we worked
towards cleaning up the Hennops River and making a
tangible difference in the community, while collecting
waste for the SME to manufacture more eco-friendly
plastic bricks.
