The get-together was officially opened
by Robert Winn, Gauteng chairman for
IOPSA, and thereafter the executive
director, Brendan Reynolds, addressed
the attendees. “The industry is growing
and at the same time, going through a
lot of changes. We must improve our
knowledge, get involved, and participate
to make a change in our own industry.
The future is looking great, but we are
facing a lot of changes,” said Reynolds.
He announced that IOPSA has launched a
quarterly newsletter and reminded members
of the industry that ‘Toolbox talks’ (safety on
site) takes place every Tuesday morning.
Deon Smit (a well-known trainer in the
industry) and Nick Joubert (IOPSA) did a
presentation on SANS 10254. (Read more
about this on page 50).
Afterwards, the guests were treated to dinner
and enjoyed socialising.
