In announcing this, TM’s chief human resource officer Mohd Khalis Abd Rahim reminded TM Sarawak to continually drive home the importance of observing safety and health practices not only among its immediate staff but also to its contractors and the public when the service is launched.
“Our aim for Sarawak is to have zero accident when UniFi services are launched. This is possible if we continually practise safety standards from the very beginning.
“We cannot delay safety practices because it will disrupt workflow,” he said yesterday during the launching of TM Sarawak safety and health campaign at TM Sarawak contingent headquarters at Jalan Simpang Tiga here.
He believed that it would be easy for TM Sarawak to achieve the target due to the staff’s strong commitment and good teamwork.
“I want TM Sarawak to be the benchmark for safety. It is everyone’s responsibility and we also must find creative ways to increase safety awareness among our staff and contractors,” Mohd Khalis said.
On accidents, he informed that TM’s safety record last year was good except for two fatal accidents involving its contractors.
“Although it involved our contractor, we must not take it lightly because we want to extend good practices to all of our partners,” he said.
Earlier this year, TM executive vice-president of SME, Azizi A Hadi, said TM planned to expand its high-speed broadband services to various states including Sarawak this year.
The two-day campaign featured health talks by medical experts, safety demonstration, exhibitions and health checks.
Participants of the event included personnel from the Fire and Rescue Services Department, Civil Defence Department, Department of Occupational Safety and Health (DOSH), Sarawak Energy Berhad, Multimedia College Sarawak and Normal Medical Specialist Centre.
TM Sarawak general manager Abdul Rahim Mohd Ali was present.
