, COMPULSORY ASSIGNMENTS: SEMESTER 2
Ngwana-Maphakela (Pty) Ltd (the NM) is known for its trade in tobacco for ten
years now. You are just appointed a month ago as a junior Risk Control officer
because, Leleme who has been a Risk Control officer for the past ten years is
going on a retirement in the next five months. On your first day at work, the
NM asked you to stand in for Leleme as his doctor had booked him off sick
until the next two weeks. The employer or NM owner advises via an email
(from another continent on a three week HIV drug related business deal) that
you use one of its boardrooms as an office. Effectively, you are running ‘the
show’ until either Leleme or the NM owner returns to work. Upon your
occupying the boardroom, you realised that the NM is not only grilling but it
has been producing and selling in large scale the HIV drugs yet the only
certificate of trade it has, which is also posted on the boardroom wall says, NM
is a registered grilling house.
With reference to the applicable OHSA provisions and the case law, discuss
what you are expected to do after the boardroom discovery. (10)
The first step is to check whether NM has a valid certification and whether it
corresponds to the company’s actual operations. According to OHSA provisions,
businesses must conduct their affairs in line with their registered operations and
provide specific safety requirements for each kind of operation. A certificate for a
grilling house is not sufficient for a drug which requires distinct certifications and
compliance with rigorous safety and health standards. 1 To manage such risks it is
important to verify if NM possesses all requisite licenses for production of
pharmaceuticals. This entails certification from health regulatory bodies, which
promote compliance with industry-specific safe working practices. The lack of such
certifications for the drug production process is a gross violation of OHSA provisions
since the company is undertaking activities way beyond those stated in its
registration.2
