As part of the Heineken Company, Bralirwa has embraced the HEINEKEN Life Saving Commitments, which stipulate clear standards to create a safe workplace for all.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the safety initiatives that were put in place include staff mandatory and regular trainings on safety standards, high level risk assessment, regular monitoring procedures, safety benchmarking, and provision of PPE materials.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the company\u2019s &#8216;Golden Principle&#8217; safety program encourages employees to be proactive, take responsibility for their own safety, and speak up if they believe a task cannot be executed safely. According to the team, this safety-first mindset played a crucial role in achieving the eight years accident-free operations for the Kigali Soft Drinks Plant and over one year for the Gisenyi brewery.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe safety of our people, plant, and processes is of utmost importance to us. Achieving these milestones is a testament to our collective efforts and commitment to empowering employees to prioritize safety and take proactive measures to prevent accidents,&#8221; said Etienne Saada, Bralirwa\u2019s Managing Director.<\/p>\n<p>The company regularly engages stakeholders, local communities, and third-party contractors such as transportation companies and suppliers to promote and prioritize safety awareness to guarantee compliance with the company&#8217;s safety standards.<\/p>\n<p>Bralirwa\u2019s efforts to promote a safety culture set a good example for other companies, not just in the beverage industry, but across all industries. The company&#8217;s strategy emphasizes the importance of people-centered and proactive safety measures in providing a safe and secure environment for all stakeholders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/rwanda\">Rwanda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Rwanda.
