My name is Makoma Mercy Malatji, I have a BSc Degree in Geography and Environmental Management which I completed in 2009 at the university of Johannesburg. I have had the opportunity to work in on different projects for the past 5 years, where I learned a lot regarding stakeholder engagement, the environmental and safety aspects such as National Environmental Management Act, Occupational health and safety act (OHSact), Heritage sites management, incident investigation, risk assessment, legal liability, subcontractor management, correct measures to implement the Environmental Management plan (EMP) of a project and the Environmental Authorisation (EA) issued by the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA). I have had the exposure of working on different projects that contained different work scopes and municipal By-laws. Waste management was a major priority as recycling and reusing measures were highly encouraged.
