OUR APPROACH TO TRANSFORMATION
We have embedded an integrated, collaborative and sustainable approach to transforming our business, our people, society and the management of the natural environment into our strategy and business model. As a state-owned entity, this approach is aligned with the NDP and we regard transformation – both within our organisation and in society as a whole – as fundamental to our value‑creation story.
Our commitment to improving the lives of historically disadvantaged South Africans through a wide range of initiatives has always gone beyond the requirements specified by legislation and focuses on tangible outcomes to promote socio-economic stability, improve living standards, strengthen our democracy and manage our impact on the natural environment.
We regard transformation as a process that eliminates the barriers to inclusion and creates new opportunities; a process that contributes to inclusive growth and fosters a sustainable future for everyone who lives, works and travels in our country. We also acknowledge the environmental impact of our operations and are committed to managing this responsibly.
While some of our transformation initiatives had to be curtailed during the Covid-19 pandemic, we continued to meet all regulatory requirements and to do whatever our resources enabled us to do. Now that we have not only achieved a firm recovery position, but are focusing on innovation, growth and sustainability rather than on recovery, we are progressively resuming our transformation agenda.
We track progress against our Transformation Strategy, which was revised in 2020 to complement our Recover and Sustain Strategy, and we have entrenched our objectives into our policies and KPIs. These are, in turn, aligned to the Integrated Transport Charter Codes, as set out in the amended Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) Codes of Good Practice. A summary of our transformation status is given in the table below:
