| 1 | For F2021, certain associates became subsidiaries of Motus. When comparing like-for-like headcount for F2020 and additional geographies this would equate to a headcount of 18 054. |
| 2 | For F2021, top management was amended to include only executive committee members, hence F2020 has been restated to aid comparability. |
| 3 | Deferred due to COVID-19. Resumed in January 2021. |
| 4 | Impacted by COVID-19 restrictions on face-to-face training. |
| 5 | Hybrid training reduced the absolute cost of training from R177 million to R144 million, but enabled us to make training more accessible and increased training hours from 63 to 99 hours per employee. |

| 1 | Australia's OHS framework is new and it scores a site as either compliant or non-compliant. In the future, once the framework has matured, this business may adopt the rating system if it makes sense to do so. |
| 2 | OHS metrics include employees and third parties. The F2020 metric for road fatalities has been restated to include third parties. |
| 3 | The nature of most injuries are fractured fingers or cuts. The UK reports a higher number of on-site injuries as a result of far more stringent regulatory reporting requirements. |
