Social
We believe that our employees are our greatest asset. We also consider that the fair and decent treatment of our people, as well as those in the communities in which we operate, is a vital part of sustainable development.
That is why our aim is to build enduring relationships with our employees and neighbours that are characterised by mutual respect, active partnership and long term commitment. So that, in the long run, the trust that we are creating by building sustainable relationships will enhance our ability to gain preferential access to the essential 'people resource'.
Safety is a core value and a major priority. We take the view that all injuries are preventable - our goal is to have none at all - and in health, that prevention is better than cure.
