CEO MESSAGE 2022
30th Year in Business
THE YEAR WE ‘STRIVE’
Two years on and we still haven’t shaken off this pandemic. It seems we are slowly coming to our senses realising that we need to control the virus and not be controlled by the virus. The virus strain is weakening, vaccines are available and continued precautionary measures are being maintained (at least in South Africa anyway) which allows freedom of movement to gain momentum. As a company we have survived and certainly made a comeback; we didn’t get this far to get this far.
All employers looking to make this mandatory in the workplace, do your due diligence:
• Conduct a Risk Assessment
• Vaccination Plan to comply with a collective agreement
• Take into account the guidelines set out in Annexure C to the Consolidated Direction on Occupational Health and Safety Measures in Certain Workplaces
Our take on being vaccinated, totally voluntary. If you feel the need then have the jab. Personally I have been vaccinated because I need to travel. Having had and survived COVID I know my circumstances. For those that haven’t contracted the virus your situation is unknown, consider the vaccination.

SHIFTING FROM WHAT TO WHY
________________________________________
For us it is not about doing a job, it’s about doing something that makes a difference. Our purpose is higher than profit generation. I strive to have our team act with that purpose on a day to day basis.

WHERE ARE WE HEADED
________________________________________
In order to move forward and be better one needs to set goals.
Why Goals Matter:
Setting goals initiates motivation. You decide where you want to be by a certain time, set out the route, plan the trip and then start. Measuring progress as you move forward. One needs flexibility to accept changes and self-discipline to stay on course.

When we see a company in business for 30 years it often appears to be an overnight success, but in reality has been years in the making.
Opportunity and the need for our service remain the basic fundamentals of how we are still in business.
Excellence is the gradual result of always striving to do better

Risk is an integral part of business – As is minimising it!
