Africa Eco Safaris
Health, safety, environment and quality
Africa Eco Safaris has a vital interest in the health, safety and wellbeing of all employees. We believe that every person who supervises, direct or controls the work of others has the responsibility for the health and safety of these employees. They also have a responsibility to ensure the safe operation and adequate care of equipment and property within their area of accountability and to be fully conversant with accident control procedures.
The consistent low incidence of work related injuries has been attributed to the successful implementation of our OH&S policy and improved staff morale.

- Maintain quality systems in accordance with respective legislative requirements
- Encourage a partnership relationship with our clients for the delivery of our quality program practices that continually improve our standards and productivity
