Murray & Roberts Reviews

 

The most enjoyable and challenging site i ever worked

My reporting structure is my Senior HSE practitioner. In the morning from 7:00 i attend a toolbox talk with employees. After the toolbox talk i check and sign the DSTI (Daily Safety Task Instructions). From 8:00 am i check and monitor the HSE of the people in the workplace. After lunch i do my inspections. I got a good relationship with the employees as i am always willing to assist. I make the feel at ease especially when asking something related to safety issues. I listen and give them a chance to express themselves. If a question was asked and they need a feed back, i make sure i bring the feed back. In the Medupi Project, i have learnt so many things including working under pressure and other companies different activities. I enjoy to work as a team and be able to achieve the planned targets. The most challenging aspects of the job is when people are getting injured. In these situation is where you need to bring strong changes and strong ideas in the workplace.

Pros: As a hard working individual, i cannot lie, i never been promoted since i started with my company. Some were promoted but me not.
Cons: There was no long working hours i experienced in Medupi.The only stressing time was when i was scheduled to work for 7 days a week. 5-7 from monday to Friday and 5-5 from saturday to sunday. During that week there was no rest.

Excellent

Use my expertise to guide young learners and artisans with their daily tasks, installing pipes, plates, stairs, building 4 coal conveyors, ensure that their hours is correct, daily allocation of sub-ordinates. I had a good working relationship with the Managers, Supervisors, Foreman and other workers, mutual respect and understanding. We never had issued that lead to disciplinary hearings. It has been an absolute pleasure to go to work every day and I am thankful that I were given the opportunity to be part of history in building the 4th largest power station in the world that would benefit all South Africans

Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Strikes, heat, long hours, 6 or 7 days a week
