   Yes
4. Do the employees/ worker of the entity have access to non-occupational medical and healthcare services? (Yes/ No)
   Yes

The Company has established a well-defined Health and Safety Management System that includes annual strategic planning, periodic review of standards, procedures, and processes, and systematic tracking of effectiveness on a monthly basis. The plan is developed at the corporate level and cascades to all operations, ensuring consistency.

To strengthen competency and capability building, a robust digital platform has been introduced for employees and workers. Various campaigns, events, and initiatives are conducted to enhance awareness and embed a strong safety culture. This year, a structured monthly campaign calendar has been launched to sustain focus:

• March & April – SOP Awareness: “SOP हे – सुरक्षा की गारंटी”
• May – Boots on Ground (BOG): Active field presence and hazard identification
• June – ROKO TOKO: Stop unsafe acts, encourage intervention
• July – Tools Safety: “It’s in your hand” – safe use of tools
• Aug & Sep – No Repeat: Prevent recurrence of incidents and near misses
• Oct – Bye Bye Bypass: Eliminate unsafe shortcuts, enforce compliance
• Nov & Dec – Isolation Practices: “Isolation – एक अटूट दीवार”

• Introduced risk reduction initiatives such as auto samplers for hot meal sampling, safety umbrellas, and mechanized dummies during preheater shutdowns.
• Deployed drones for inspections in high risk areas to enable early hazard detection and mitigation.
• Issued helmet mounted voltage detectors to electricians for real time voltage detection and prevention of electrical hazards.
• Enhanced electrical safety through a comprehensive program covering Lock Out, Tag Out, Try Out (LOTOTO) procedures, arc flash hazard assessments, routine equipment inspections, and mandatory training.
• Reinforced structural integrity by covering floor openings to prevent accidental falls.
• Implemented centralized monitoring of coal meal alarms, supported by third party structural inspections and rehabilitation work.
• Installed explosion vents in coal meal areas to mitigate explosion risks.

Engagement & Awareness
