Safety and occupational health

The provision of safe and healthy workplaces remains a key priority for Harmony, as does the elimination of all workplace injuries and work-related ill health effects, and has been an important area of focus during the year. As safety, health care and occupational health are inter-related and inter-dependent, we deal with all three aspects in this section as they represent the full health care risk and burden on the company.

Safety in South Africa

Overall oversight of safety performance and high-level setting of targets is undertaken by the Sustainable Development Committee, a committee of the board.

Safety in PNG

Safety management is undertaken in accordance with the MMJV’s Health and Safety Policy, in conjunction with our safety management standards.

Occupational health in South Africa

Harmony provides access to quality health care through company-managed facilities, third-party service-providers or medical aids to all employees, some contractors and many dependents.

Health in PNG

The Hidden Valley, Wafi and Wau Medical Centres provide both primary health care and occupational health surveillance and treatment.
