A special congratulations to Gerda-Mari and Brian on evaluation efforts on the Farm, and Heinrich on the upgrade of the Workshops.
Bruce will be driving the completion and exercising of the Emergency Plan in the coming few weeks.

Specialised Sevices

EC4 is currently at the forefront of a drive to implement effective and innovative emergency planning in retirement villages, homes and frailcare centres.  The aged and infirm are one of South Africa's primary special needs groups, which include the vision and hearing impaired categories.
Evacuations are a particular challenge for staff and residents in this environment, and sadly, hazards like fires lead to injury and loss of life if planning and training are not thorough and well practised.  EC4 have experienced disaster management planners, and a Registered Nurse providing specialist technical input.  We are currently assisting three major retirement and specialised needs organisations with there emergency management programs in the Cape Town area.

Stay tuned for more on this project

Business took EC4 into the apple country of Grabouw / Villiersdorp.  Fascinating country, where Bruce assisted Southern Cross Security with the training and assessment of Control Room Operators.
Congrats to Irene on an excellent distinction during assessment - 94%

We get around! the photo's include a sunset outside villiersdorp and a view of Franschoek?  Let me tell you, never has there been weather like that experienced...gale force winds, rain and biting cold. Never the less, fun was had by all

Bruce has been spending time at Pearl Valley Golf and Country Estate creating a sustainable Health and Safety Programme, including compliance, training, emergency planning and safety leadership development.  We will be a regular feature at the estate as the appointed consultants.

Now what better place to spend a day!

Great news! EC4 welcomes Chevonne Thomson as Sales, Marketing and Administration Assistant.
Having her on board has added significantly to our speed and service. 
Now we just need to get a photo for the blog!
