MUSCAT:  To equip its leaders with the knowledge and capability of key Health, Safety and Environment (HSE) responsibilities, Mazoon Electricity Company, the leading electricity provider in Oman, recently launched a programme for enhancing effective ‘Safety Leadership’ at an event held in Holiday Inn.

Endorsed by the senior level management of Mazoon Electricity, the on-going training programme will focus on embedding vital HSE practices in business, environment, work and worksites. Mazoon Electricity has partnered with world-renowned safety consultancy company DEKRA, to execute the programme.  Comprising wide-ranging experience, experts from DEKRA will use effective tools to motivate and educate leaders to support a long-term change to positively impact safety performance.

Commenting on this programme, Salim Said Al Kamyani, Acting Chief Executive Officer of Mazoon Electricity said, “Managing risks related to HSE has always been high on our company’s agenda. The purpose of the ‘Safety Leadership Programme’ is to arm leaders with skills and competencies required to ‘lead with safety’.”
