Otmane El Rhazi : Glencore commits to migrating first world safety to third world countries

Otmane El Rhazi from Mining Weekly | Ferrous Metals Home.



Diversified major Glencore, which reported 16 fatalities last year, has committed itself to migrating first-world safety practices into the challenging geographies where more than 80% of the recorded deaths took place. The London-, Hong Kong- and Johannesburg-listed company’s SafeWork programme – in which 118 000 workers took part in 2014 – is currently being implemented in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Zambia, Bolivia and Kazakhstan, where 13 of this year’s 16 fatalities took place.
