At Sohar Aluminium we believe good
health is good business. Our policy of ‘zero
harm’ extends to our people not only in the
workplace but also in their families’ daily
lives.
We encourage employees
to adopt a healthy lifestyle for themselves and for
their families. All employees joining the company undergo
a pre-placement medical assessment, where they are carefully
screened to ensure they are physically capable of carrying
out their tasks and that they are placed into areas
that do not pose significant risk to their health.
We ensure that potential hazards at the workplace are
identified, assessed and controlled in order to protect
are employees and monitor their health on a regular
basis.
Our occupational health and industrial hygiene specialists
will provide workplace / shop floor technical support
to supervisors and workers on health and ergonomic issues
and provide the necessary health monitoring consistent
with smelter and power plant operation. A dedicated
hygiene section is being established to assist the EHS
department in the development and the implementation
of Occupational Health programs to ensure preventing
employee ill health from exposure to hazardous substance
or physical stresses arising from the workplace when
the plant is commissioned.
