Company Involvement

The company has spent over R1.6 million on an annual basis through its various initiatives that it has planned.

The vision at FMCSA is to "Choose Life". This is the message the Management, Peer Educators, Union members and the Wellness committee are taking to all employees. FMCSA targets are:

  • Zero new infection
  • Zero deaths from HIV/AIDS
  • Zero new babies born from DS

The programme was broadened to include general health education, nutrition, and diversity to include health aspects for total employee wellbeing. Education and Training was designed to inform employees about HIV/AIDS, highlight importance of STI and TB treatment and help breakdown the stigma and discrimination barriers that prevent employees from accessing services. This was important to create a safe and confidential environment where employees can feel confident of the programme without fear of stigmatisation.
