WELCOME TO LIVIERO The Liviero Group is a South African multi-disciplinary, black majority owned Construction Group. With headquarters in Johannesburg and several regional offices, the Group is firmly positioned to provide support to its clients and operations throughout South Africa. Liviero covers the full spectrum of construction services including Civil Engineering, Roads and Earthworks, Building, Property Development, Mining Infrastructure, Open Cast Mining and Plant Hire. Owing to its specialised operating companies, the Group is able to provide a comprehensive ‘one stop’ construction solution to its clients. The management recognises the impact that our activities may have on the environment and those that exist within it. Therefore, the Liviero management commits to the continual improvement of its methods, employees, systems and infrastructure in achieving its goal of zero harm. This is achieved through training, effective management, transparency and a standardised company-wide integrated management system.

CLAUSES NOT APPLICABLE TO LIVIERO SCOPE The following clauses of ISO 9001 were determined to be not applicable to Liviero: 

Clause 8.3 Design and Development of Products or services

Liviero claims no exclusions from the ISO 45001 and ISO 14001 standards. The scope of Liviero’s market offering is detailed in document GS_AD_05 Scope. 4.4

Integrated management system and its processes a)

Process Identification Liviero has adopted a process approach for its integrated management system. By identifying the top-level processes within the company, and then managing each of these discretely, reduces the potential for nonconforming products or services discovered during production phases or after delivery. Instead, nonconformities and risks are identified in real time, by actions taken within each of the top-level processes. Note: Not all activities are considered ‘processes’ – the term ‘process’ in this context indicates the activity has been elevated to a higher level of control and management influence. The controls indicated herein are applicable only to the top-level processes identified. The following top-level processes have been identified for Liviero: i)

Marketing, Tendering & Estimating;

ii)

Building Construction

iii)

Civil Engineering;

iv)

Mining / Drill & Blast;

v)

Plant Services & Maintenance;

vi)

Outsourced Services (Suppliers, Contractors & Labour-Only Contractors);

vii)

Financial Services;

viii)

Human Resources Services;

Page 6 of 24


Liviero IMS SHEQ POLICY MANUAL ix)

SHEQ Services.

Each process may be supported by other activities; such as tasks or sub-processes. Monitoring and control of top level processes ensures effective implementation and control of all subordinate tasks or sub-processes. Each top-level process has a Top-Level Process Definition document which defines: i)

Applicable inputs and outputs;

ii)

Process owner(s);

iii)

Applicable responsibilities and authorities;

iv)

Applicable risks and opportunities;

v)

Critical and supporting resources;

vi)

Criteria and methods employed to ensure the effectiveness of the process;

vii)

SHEQ objectives related to that process.

The sequence of interaction of these processes is illustrated in Appendix A. Procedure GS_PR_06 Objective Setting & Achieving, describes in detail the process of objectives. Note: Appendix A represents the typical sequence of processes, and may be altered depending on customer or regulatory requirements at the job or contract level, as needed. b)

Process Controls & Objectives Each process has at least one objective established for it; this is a statement of the intent of the process. Each objective is then supported by at least one ‘metric’ or key performance indicator (KPI) which is then measured to determine the process’ ability to meet the SHEQ objective. Note: Some processes have multiple objectives and multiple metrics. This is determined by the nature of the process, it’s impact on Liviero services, and associated risks. Note: Whereas the international standards discuss process measurements and ‘SHEQ Objectives’ as separate concepts, Liviero combines them; i.e., SHEQ Objectives are used to control the processes. Additional objectives for Liviero services may be assigned, but these will also be used to measure process effectiveness. Throughout the year, metrics data is measured and gathered by process owners or other assigned managers, in order to present the data to Liviero Group and company EXCOs. The data is analysed in order that the Senior Management Teams may set goals and make adjustments for the purposes of long-term continual improvement. The specific SHEQ objectives for each process are defined in the applicable Top-Level Process Definition. Metrics, along with current standings and goals for each objective, are recorded in records of management review. When a process does not meet a goal, or an unexpected problem is encountered with a process, the corrective action process is implemented to research and resolve the issue. In addition, opportunities for improvement are sought and implemented, for the identified processes.

c)

Outsourced Processes Any process performed by a third party is considered an ‘outsourced process’ and must be controlled. The company’s outsourced processes, and the control methods implemented for each, are defined in GS_PR_16 Outsourcing Procedure. The type and extent of control to be applied to the outsourced process take into consideration: i)

The potential impact of the outsourced process on the company’s capability to provide product that conforms to requirements, Page 7 of 24


Liviero IMS SHEQ POLICY MANUAL

5.0

ii)

The degree to which the control for the process is shared,

iii)

The capability of achieving the necessary control through the purchasing contract requirements.

Actions to address risks and opportunities Note: Liviero deviates slightly from the approach towards risk and opportunity presented in ISO 9001. Instead, Liviero views ‘uncertainty’ as neutral, but defines ‘risk’ as a negative effect of uncertainty, and ‘opportunity’ as a positive effect of uncertainty. Liviero has elected to manage risks and opportunities separately, except where they may overlap. Formal risk management may not be utilized in all instances; instead, the level of risk assessment, analysis, treatment and recordkeeping will be performed to the level deemed appropriate for each circumstance or application. Liviero considers risks and opportunities when taking actions within the management system, as well as when implementing or improving the management system; likewise, these are considered relative to products or services. Risks and opportunities are identified as part of the ‘Context of the Organization Exercise’ defined in GS_PR_04 Context of the Organisation Statement, as well as throughout all other activities of the IMS. Risks and opportunities are managed in accordance with the GS_PR_03 Risk & Opportunities Procedure. This procedure defines how risks are managed in order to minimize their likelihood and impact, and how opportunities are managed to improve their likelihood and benefit. For operational purposes, Liviero established a process for on-going and proactive identification of hazards, including environmental aspects, the potential impact on conformity, as well as the assessment of the associated risks. This process is described in the procedure GS_PR_04 Hazard Identification and the Assessment of Risk. Liviero determined the legal and other requirements that applies to the organisation. In order to stay up-to-date with the legal requirements, as well as other requirements related to Liviero’s activities, the organisation subscribes to DigiLex Legal Registers; a web based legal register for health & safety and environment. This process is described in the procedure GS_PR_05 Legal & Other Requirements.

Liviero IMS SHEQ POLICY MANUAL 6.2

SHEQ objectives and planning to achieve them As part of the adoption of the process approach, Liviero utilizes its process objectives, as discussed in 4.4 above, as the main SHEQ objectives for the IMS. These include overall product-related SHEQ objectives; additional product-related SHEQ objectives may be defined in work instructions or customer requirements. The process objectives have been developed in consideration that they: a)

Be consistent with the SHEQ policy;

b) Be measurable; c)

Take into account applicable requirements;

d) Be relevant to conformity of products or services and to enhancement of customer satisfaction; e)

Be monitored;

f)

Be communicated;

g)

Be updated as appropriate.

Process SHEQ objectives are defined in the minutes of management review per section 9.3 below. The planning of process SHEQ objectives is defined in section 4.4 above. 6.3

Planning of Changes Changes to the integrated management system or any of its processes are carried out in a planned manner per the procedure GS_PR_12 Control of Documents. Also refer to paragraph 7.5 Documented Information.

ii)

Enhance customer satisfaction by meeting customer requirements.

Resource allocation is done with consideration of the capability and constraints on existing internal resources, as well as needs related to supplier expectations. Resources and resource allocation are assessed during management reviews. The documented procedure GS_PR_07 Resource Management defines these activities in detail.

Page 11 of 24


Liviero IMS SHEQ POLICY MANUAL b)

People Senior management ensures that it provides sufficient employees for the effective operation of the integrated management system, as well its identified processes.

c)

Infrastructure Liviero determines, provides and maintains the infrastructure needed to achieve conformity to product requirements. Infrastructure includes, as applicable: i)

Buildings, workspace and associated facilities;

ii)

Process equipment, hardware and software;

iii)

Supporting services such as transport;

iv)

Information and communication technology.

Equipment is validated per the procedure LP_GD_02 Equipment Validation and maintained per the procedure LP_PR_01 Preventive Maintenance. d)

Environment for the operation of processes Liviero provides a clean, safe and well-lit working environment. Workplace Managers / Department Heads manages the work environment needed to achieve conformity to product requirements. Specific environmental requirements for products are determined during SHEQ planning and are documented in subordinate procedures, work instructions, or operational documentation. Where special work environments have been implemented, these shall also be maintained per 6.3 above. Human factors are considered to the extent that they directly impact on the quality of Liviero products or services. Note: Social aspects of the work environment are managed through activities outside of the scope of the management system. Only work environment aspects which can directly affect process efficiency or product and service quality are managed through the management system.

e)

Monitoring and measuring resources Where equipment is used for critical measurement activities, such as inspection and testing, these shall be subject to control and either calibration or verification; see the procedure GS_PR_08 Measuring Equipment Control. Note: Calibration and measurement traceability is not employed for all measurement devices. Instead, Liviero determines which devices will be subject to calibration based on its processes, products or services, or in order to comply with specifications or requirements. These decisions are also based on the importance of a measurement, and considerations of risk.

f)

Organizational knowledge Liviero also determines the knowledge necessary for the operation of its processes and to achieve conformity of products or services. This include knowledge and information obtained from: i)

Internal sources such as lessons learned, feedback from subject matter experts, and/or intellectual property;

ii)

External sources such as standards, academia, conferences, and/or information gathered from customers or suppliers.

This knowledge shall be maintained, and made available to the extent necessary. When addressing changing needs and trends, Liviero shall consider its current knowledge and determine how to acquire or access the necessary additional knowledge.

Page 12 of 24


Liviero IMS SHEQ POLICY MANUAL 7.2

Competence Liviero shall ensure that employees, including Contracted employees, performing work affecting product quality are competent on the basis of appropriate education, training, skills and experience. To this end Liviero shall: a)

Determine the necessary competence of employees that affects SHEQ performance;

b) Ensure that employees are competent on the basis of appropriate education, induction, training and experience; c)

Where applicable, take action to acquire the necessary competence; and

d) Retain appropriate documented information as evidence of competence. The documented procedure GS_PR_09 Competency & Training defines these activities in detail. Note: The integrated management system does not include other aspects of Human Resources management, such as payroll, benefits, insurance, labour relations or disciplinary actions. 7.3

Awareness Training and subsequent communication thereof ensure that employees, including Contracted employees, are aware of: a)

The SHEQ policy;

b) Relevant SHEQ objectives; c)

Their contribution to the effectiveness of the management system, including the benefits of improved performance;

d) The implications of not conforming with the integrated management system requirements. 7.4

Information and communication Liviero shall determine the need for internal and external information and communication relevant to the integrated management system and its processes, including: a)

What it will inform about and communicate;

b) When to inform and communicate; c)

Who to inform and with whom to communicate;

d) How to inform and communicate; and e)

How it will receive and maintain documented information on, and respond to relevant communications.

Liviero shall retain documented information as evidence of its information and communications as appropriate. See Procedure GS_PR_11 Information & Communication. 7.5

Documented Information Liviero’s integrated management system incorporates ISO 45001:2017, ISO 14001:2015 and ISO 9001:2015, with the aim of improving the effectiveness of the organisation. Documented information includes both documents and records. Note: Although the ISO standards use the term ‘documented information’; Liviero relies on the terms ‘document’ and ‘record’ to avoid confusion. In this context the terms are defined by Liviero as provided for in section 3.0 above. Documents and records undergo different controls as defined herein. Documented information of external origin and necessary for planning and operation shall be identified and appropriately controlled. Likewise, documented information retained as evidence of conformity shall be appropriately controlled and protected from unintended alteration.

Page 13 of 24


Liviero IMS SHEQ POLICY MANUAL These controls are applicable to those records which provide evidence of conformance to requirements; this may be evidence of product or service requirements, contractual requirements, procedural requirements, or statutory/regulatory compliance. In addition, SHEQ records include any records which provide evidence of the effective operation of the management system. The creation and control of documents required for the integrated management system is managed in accordance with procedure GS_PR_12 Control of Documents. The purpose of document control is to ensure that employees have access to the latest, approved information, and to restrict the use of obsolete information. All integrated management system documents are established, documented, implemented and maintained. A procedure, GS_PR_13 Control of Records has been established to define the controls needed for the identification, storage, retrieval, protection, retention time, and disposition of SHEQ records. This procedure also defines the methods for controlling records that are created by and/or retained by outsourced services.
