  8. Intervention 2: Mast & Towers Climbing What are the Operational challenges? • Faults or maintenance on towers require double dispatch of 2 certified and competent climbers. • Legal requirement for Fall Arrest • Higher Volume of climbing in certain areas • High number of exits due to job offers by our competitors • Unable to climb due to ill-health • Climbers not motivated to climb due to lack of differentiation Why the need for focusing on “ Mast & Towers Climbing “ Skills ? • Skill is essential for maintenance of the core network and servicing our customers. • Increasing relevance in mobile domain • History of wall-2-wall implementation – combined Transmission, Switching, Telematics and Microwave skills into one JD ( only microwave teams climbed ) • No differentiation on the wall-2-wall JD • Effective management and skills retention • Ageing workforce • Loss of staff to competitors Who is Impacted by the Change ? • All Wall-2-Wall Field staff • All certified climbers What are the special skills of this job? • Climbing re-certification every three years • Training provided by vendor cost of R1.2m • Compulsory medical every year • They have to keep trim and fit ! • Technocrat and a value add of being a “bunging jumper”

  9. Intervention 2: Mast & Towers Climbing What are the risk profile and hazards of this work environment ?

  10. Intervention 2: Mast & Towers Climbing What are the next steps and implementation plan ?

  11. Change Management Intervention 3 Intervention: Satellite Operations Review Region/s: NER Telkom Proprietary and Confidential information – Limited distribution under NDA only

Intervention 3 – Satellite Operations Review What are the next steps? • NCO Executives to align the Satellite assurance and fulfilment functions currently performed by Hartebeeshoek with the NCO Operational Model. • A Senior Management task team to investigate the impact to Satellite operations in the assurance and fulfilment value chain as per Executive decision taken. • Task team to present findings to NCO Executives. • How is this going to be implemented ? • Consult with OL and present findings at CF on new operational model for Telkom SA Satellite. • Follow due HR processes if any staff will be impacted. Why the need for change Strategic Intent / Rationale ? • The Satellite environment is evolving from voice and data into a NGN IP solution with the new network equipment(SSH Hub) • Investigate the current operations to understand and align the new functions with respect to the NCO Operating Model. Who is Impacted by the Change in CNFO? • Satellite Staff When is Change to be Implemented ? • Pending investigation in Q1 Telkom Proprietary and Confidential information – Limited distribution under NDA only

  17. Intervention 4 – Review of Shift and Re-alignment Background on Shift • The transmission shift environment in JDF was introduced approximately twenty years ago. • There is transmission shift environment on the 7th Floor and the IMC (International Maintenance Centre) on the 11th floor • Shift work was implemented mainly to deal with high priority faults in relation with the then risks associated catastrophic failures • Shifts were required in the past as the legacy equipment was not managed from a central point and staff was needed on site to do surveillance and maintenance. • All technologies except for the Transmission technology on the 7th floor and IMC on the 11th floor are manned during the normal week day and faults at night are attended to by a staff on standby • All technologies except for the Transmission technology on the 7th floor and IMC on the 11th floor are manned during the normal week day and faults at night are attended to by a staff on standby • JDF building houses Switching, Transmission, Non Voice, IP, Converged Network and Mobile equipment on the various floors. • IMC was manned by RTS only and therefore do not provide support the OP1s Telkom Proprietary and Confidential information – Limited distribution under NDA only

  18. Current Mode of Operation Current Mode of Operation 11th Floor : • JDF IMC (International Maintenance Centre) presently has one OP1 technical officer and five S6 specialists performing a 24 x 7 shift. • They are stationed on the 11th floor and from there are dispatched to 11th floor and JS in Hillbrow exchange. • A six week shift cycle is in operation with one staff per shift. • The shift consists of a day shift, afternoon shift, and night shift with rest days between shifts. Current Mode of Operation 7th Floor : • JDF Transmission presently has seven OP1 technical officers performing a 24 x 7 shift. • They are stationed on the 7th floor and from there are dispatched to 7th and 6th floor in JDF as well as MMJ, KSD & HRI being part of the section. • A five week cycle shift is in operation with one or two staff working per shift on a rotation basis. • The shift consists of a day shift, afternoon shift, and night shift with rest days between shifts.

  19. Why the need for change? Why the need for change Strategic Intent / Rationale ? • With the present NGN, the surveillance and restoration capabilities, configurations and patching of traffic can be done remotely by the NNOC via the management platforms. • . Following the recent resignations on JDF 7th Floor ( 2 and 1 demise) Shift – positions could not be motivated for back fill due to reduction of workload numbers. • Rebalancing of resources due to the reduction in work load as per Advantex data during office hours and after hours. • Staff experience is only limited to the transmission equipment more experience is needed on all the equipment in the NGN toolbox. • Staff working for long periods(years) shift and this is not conducive for our staff health • Align with the CNFO Operating model How is this going to be implemented ? • Design new resource model for JDF transmission/ IMC based on workload during normal work hours. • Follow due HR process to moved staff as per options available for staff after agreement between all parties.
