With the holiday season comes busy roads and public spaces. Safety should always be your top priority. Take extra care, plan, and drive safely—your loved ones are waiting for you. Safety tips when travelling: - Plan your travel routes and allow extra time for holiday traffic. - Never drink and drive—designate a sober driver or use a rideshare service. - Stay alert and avoid distractions like texting while driving. - Pack an emergency kit for road trips, including a first-aid kit, blankets water and food. - Share your travel plans with someone you trust in case of emergencies. #BME #SafetyFirst

What a blast!! Thank you for sharing this fantastic outcome! We’re proud that BME’s AXXIS electronic system could support your team in achieving such precision and safety. A big congratulations to Hendrik Goosen and the entire Ridgeview quarry team for their commitment to operational excellence and adhering to best practices. Here’s to continued success with safe, efficient blasting!

As we embrace joy this holiday season, let’s remember that safety does not take a holiday. Whether we are at work or at home with our loved ones, staying alert and being mindful of our actions is key to protecting ourselves and those around us. Our choices have a ripple effect, influencing the well-being of everyone in our lives. By acting responsibly and with care, we can ensure this season is not only joyful but also safe for all. Safety tips for the holiday season: - Follow all safety protocols if working during the holiday season. - Report any hazards or unsafe conditions immediately - Secure your home if traveling—lock doors and windows and set alarms if you have them. - Limit alcohol consumption and encourage responsible behaviour at gatherings. - Stay hydrated and get enough rest to manage holiday stress and fatigue. #BME

This week, we had the honour of attending the #StepUp2AGreenStartUp #NationalYouthEntrepreneurshipAwards in Johannesburg, which coincided with the celebration of the incredible 10-year journey of Primestars #StepUp2AGreenStartUp programme. The International Labour Organization estimates that the #GreenEconomy could create more than 24 million jobs globally. As such, Omnia is a proud key sponsor to this groundbreaking programme that focuses on educating, and empowering youth across South Africa on sustainability, sustainable practices and the green economy. Primestars Step Up 2 A Green Start-Up encourages youth to seize opportunities in the green economy and develop solutions that address pressing social and environmental challenges in their communities. In a country grappling with high youth unemployment and poverty, this programme shifts mindsets of the youth from job seekers to job creators. By encouraging #Entrepreneurship and #Sustainability, it equips the leaders of tomorrow with the tools to drive lasting change. This sentiment was echoed by the Former President of South Africa Thabo Mbeki, who stated that platforms such as these give youth the opportunity to #Rise, #Innovate and #Lead. Omnia is committed to supporting the sustainable growth of healthy, educated, and resilient communities. We are a proud partner with Primestars in investing in the future of our youth to build a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable society. This is testament to our purpose of ‘Innovating to enhance life, together creating a greener future.’ #FutureLeaders  #YouthEntrepreneurship

Driving Change, One Swing at a Time!    Over the past few weeks, we were proud to participate in two incredible annual charity golf events hosted by the Sishen and Mogalakwena Anglo American teams, showcasing our new brand and supporting meaningful causes.   15 November | Kalahari Country Club, Kathu We had a branded hole at the Kalahari Country Club during the Sishen Classic Charity Golf Day, giving our new brand fantastic visibility to 120 enthusiastic players. It was a day filled with camaraderie, great swings, and an even greater cause.   23 November | Bushveld Classic, Mokopane We wrapped up the month with the Bushveld Classic at Kameeldoring Golf Club, where we hosted 200 players at our watering hole. The energy was unmatched, and the prize giveaways added a touch of excitement to the day.   Both events were resounding successes, not only for the fun and networking but most importantly, for the incredible funds raised to support vital charitable initiatives.   A huge thank you to Anglo American, the organisers, and everyone who joined us on the course. Together, we’re driving positive change both on and off the green!   #CharityGolf #CommunityImpact #BMEJourney
