How we work
Built on people, plant and standards
01
Our equipment
Dongo Civils uses its own earth-moving equipment and machinery. We also enjoy good relations with leading plant and machinery hire companies, so we can complement our own fleet whenever a project calls for it.
02
Our people
With a staff complement of more than 60 permanent employees, and the ability to hire locals in every area where we work, we have the human capital to undertake projects of any size.
03
Financial strength
We enjoy a good banking relationship with FNB, giving us the financial support we need to do what we do best: asphalt and tarmac projects.
04
SHEQ: Safety, Health, Environment and Quality
In all our projects, occupational health, safety and environmental impact are of paramount importance. We adhere to the OHS Act and all construction health and safety regulations. Before any job we carry out a risk assessment and an environmental impact assessment, and our Quality Management System helps us deliver high-quality work. Our SHE file and QMS are available on request.
