Because internet connectivity and data prices can be an issue for some, these videos are also available in a low-data WhatsApp format on request. Please email Carmen Botes (carmen@siza.co.za) to request the WhatsApp versions of these videos.
SIZA caring for the environment
To raise awareness under Agri Workers about conservation of the environment, SIZA created a Caring for the Environment video in Afrikaans and English. These videos are supported by posters which can be displayed in agri-worker areas. It is important to understand that caring for the environment is not a choice, but something that all of us will have to invest in and implement. This video can be downloaded on the links below.

SIZA posters for both social and environmental compliance principles are available at the SIZA office in Afrikaans, English, and isiXhosa. Posters are provided free of charge to SIZA members, however the member will be liable for postage fees, which will be invoiced. Alternatively, the posters are available for free in digital format to be printed at your own convenience. To order posters, please contact Jo-Anne September on jo-anne@siza.co.za or (021) 852 8184.
