SUSTAINABILITY

Safety

We aim to operate safe workplaces that are injury-free, and to enhance the well-being of employees, contractors and communities. We maintain a safe workplace based on mutual respect, fairness and integrity, and are guided by our Health & Safety Policy.

To put safety at the forefront, we must identify and manage health and safety hazards in our workplace. In order to help realize this goal, Glencore launched SafeWork to provide a common global foundation to build our culture of safety worldwide.

We understand that the statistics that track our safety performance reflect the health and well-being of our people and that those impacted are not going home to their loved ones in the same condition as they left for work. That’s what drives us to carry on open safety conversations with colleagues in the pursuit of zero harm. We invite you to read the words of a few of our employees on what SafeWork means to them.

Safety recognition

We’re proud of our employees for their safety accomplishments over the years, including receiving industry recognition.

Most recently, on May 13, 2024, our Fraser Mine was awarded the 2023 John T. Ryan National Trophy for Metal Mines for the best safety performance in Canada from the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM). Moreover, on a regional level, our Nickel Rim South Mine took home the John T. Ryan Regional Trophy for the province of Ontario.

And, as we look to the future, we will rely on our innovative nature to continue to strive for zero harm, such as the pursuit of autonomous vehicle technology.
