Health Promotion One of the Social Commitments of our Company is to promote healthy standard for employees and the communities at large. In ensuring this, the Company has established a clinic which is patronized by all employees and the general public from the surrounding communities. The Company's medical team periodically engages in the promotion of;  Outreach programs in the communities to sensitize the people on the outbreak of epidemics.  Educational programs on healthy leaving lifestyles in the communities.  Sensitization programs to create awareness of the current trend of HIV AIDS in our surrounding communities and encourage free voluntary testing of individuals.  Periodic medical examination for employees and the people of the communities to know their health status.  Health talks on the local FM stations to create awareness of health issues. Safety Safety being one of the values and products of TOPP, our approach to issues of safety is extremely of high standard and our concern is directed towards our employees and the communities in which we operate. It is our desire to have safe environment both at work place and home to prevent personal injury and occupational illness so as to promote good health among our employees and the general public. As such, safety talks, hazard spotting, unsafe acts, near misses and behavioral safety observations are always part of each employee's annual target. Safety talks in relation to issues both at work and home are held every week by all sections in the company. The Company in extending this knowledge to the public has sponsored safety education program on the local FM station which is run every morning from Monday to Friday on topics such as road safety, environmental management, fire management, electricity management, health etc. These programmes are run in collaboration with the Ghana Highway Authority, the Ghana Fire Service, the Ghana Police Service, the Ghana Health Service and the Electricity Company of Ghana.

To this end TOPP maintains school facilities from Nursery to Junior High School on its estate. The school facilities are open to both employees' children and children from near-by communities. In addition to the provision of school facilities, scholarships are also awarded to employees' children and some brilliant but needy children from the community who gain admission to Government Assisted Second Cycle Educational Institutions. Community Development TOPP believes in the physical development of its environment especially the immediate communities that surround the Company. In our effort to promote development, the Company supports infrastructure and developmental projects initiated by the communities such as provision of roads, boreholes, KVIPs, electricity poles and transformers, renovation of school buildings and supporting other social programs in the communities. The company also provides technical and financial support to the MMDAs and the various traditional authorities in our area of operation.
