Going Forward
Employee Alcohol Policy
Our Employee Alcohol Policy sets down guidelines for responsible
drinking and deems what is acceptable behaviour among GAB employees.
This encompasses the serving of alcohol and inappropriate levels of
alcohol consumption. It provides advice on drinking and driving, alcohol
dependency and rehabilitation, and discrimination and harassment
regarding alcohol abuse.
GAB is committed to raising
awareness regarding responsible
drinking and responsible serving
amongst its stakeholders.
GAB ensures that all its
activities and communications
meet legal requirements and
do not encourage irresponsible
drinking.
Responsible Drinking
In FY10 we launched Drink Sensibly, a GAB-led responsible drinking
programme. To-date, all GAB employees have undergone a responsible
drinking educational programme. This programme includes information
on alcohol and its effect on the body, what standard drinks are and
tips on responsible drinking for employees who choose to drink. Each
employee was given a Drink Sensibly booklet to supplement and support
the programme. This booklet is available in three languages: Bahasa
Malaysia, English and Mandarin.
We are initiating plans to roll-out the Drink Sensibly
campaign to our trade partners.
We are committed to good
Occupational Safety & Health
(OSH) practices
Safety, Health and the Environment
We are guided by GAB’s Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) Policy.
The SHE Policy dictates that our people adopt safe and healthy
environments that are compliant with relevant statutory and Company
requirements. The Policy applies to all production and non-production
activities including the maintenance of plant equipment, the provision of
training, the provision of adequate facilities and welfare arrangements, as
well as the development of safety awareness programmes.
Our procedures and processes are monitored, reviewed and audited
regularly for continuous improvement by the SHE Committee which meets
on a regular basis. The SHE Committee comprises representatives from
various departments in the brewery and is chaired by our Supply Chain
Director.
We have reviewed our Smoking Policy and restricted the existing smoking
area to 4 areas throughout the brewery. This will also reduce fire hazards
significantly.
