## Legal compliance 

We have continued to enhance our legal compliance processes and systems during the year. Compliance with competition law metrics has been included in the incentive schemes of most employees. 

An important development this year was the establishment of a new sub- committee of the group executive committee, the group legal compliance committee. The committee is responsible for ensuring that risk-based legal compliance processes, controls and systems are applied consistently in all Sasol businesses and enterprise functions, with the aim of mitigating the risk of non-compliance with laws, in an effective and effi cient manner, across the group. 

The resources in the legal compliance function have been signifi cantly increased with the appointment of 11 additional compliance and support staff. Essential requirements for compliance programmes have been developed and approved by the group legal compliance committee and are being implemented to manage the group’s top legal compliance risks. 

As part of our continuing training and awareness programmes on ethics and governance, the focus this year was on ensuring compliance with anti-corruption and competition legislation. In rolling out our Competition Law Policy and Guideline, more than 13 000 employees certifi ed that they had received and read the guideline. In addition, we have provided 

face-to-face training for more than 4 000 employees covering relevant aspects of compliance with competition law. The extensive face-to-face training augmented the online training conducted the previous year.

To ensure adherence to the code, we have appointed ethics offi cers
