Sustainability Approach

Sustainability Context and Management Approach

KAP operates nineteen industrial facilities in Southern Africa, employing 6 082 people.

The impact of its operations on society and the environment is constantly under scrutiny – equally ensuring compliance with all legislative requirements that impact our employees, worker health and safety, and the environment. We can proudly report that we have continued to improve and respond to the broader sustainability agenda.

KAP subsidiaries are measured against Key Performance Indicators within a broad group policy, requiring subsidiaries to be compliant with applicable legislation and for management to focus their energies and resources on sustainability issues which are material to stakeholders, society and the environment.

All industrial facilities must develop management systems that proactively and systematically address safety, health, environment and quality (SHEQ) risks, and strive to attain and maintain internationally recognised certification standards for these management systems.

Independent professionals conduct risk audits at all sites. These cover critical risk aspects of the businesses including fire, defence, security, safety (Occupational Health and Safety Act requirements) and environmental management.
