  • Actively participating in mine wellness campaigns and providing an annual occupational hygiene sampling schedule.

The session is scheduled for Thursday, 05 November 2026, at 10:00 via Microsoft Teams. Interested bidders must complete the “Registration of Prospective Bidders Form” and submit it to tender@aemfc.co.za no later than 02 November 2026 to receive the meeting link and ensure proper arrangements are made.
