Fire Safety

In 2024, no fires were recorded at KMG facilities. However, there were 16 incidents of smoldering and 3 cases of combustion. In accordance with legislation, these events are classified separately and are not included in official fire statistics.

To strengthen fire protection, as part of the Comprehensive Fire Safety Plan for 2022–2024, scheduled fire tactical drills were conducted at KMG subsidiaries throughout 2024. These included joint exercises at Kazmortransflot LLP with the participation of Samruk-Kazyna JSC and the Ministry for Emergency Situations of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

At the KMG Corporate Center, two fire drills were conducted, including employee evacuation and response procedures for a simulated fire.

Throughout the year, subsidiaries received methodological guidelines to enhance fire safety during high-risk periods – such as the heating season and holidays – and clarifications on fire safety regulations.

Planned initiatives for 2025 include:

• Completion of the long-term activities under the Comprehensive Fire Safety Plan;
• Evaluation of subsidiaries’ and private fire services’ readiness to prevent and extinguish fires at Company facilities.

The implementation of these measures will minimize the risk of ignition and improve the overall level of fire safety across the KMG Group.
