Known for her commitment to promoting a healthy lifestyle among

“We have made great strides in ensuring a healthy and a safe workplace for employees, contractors and the general public within our jurisdiction.
The great work accomplished in the health and safety sphere has
culminated in our celebration of 4 years without any fatal incident. We
reckon that life style choices affect individual’s health and well being
and this is why we are working hard to facilitate the health and well being of employees” she said.
