About Health & Safety
At Newmont, the health and safety of our work force is more critical to sustaining our business than the amount of ore we mine. Solely by demonstrating our commitment to protecting the welfare of others can we attract and retain experienced employees, encourage host communities to do business with us, and secure financial investments to explore and develop new regions.
We can only achieve our production and financial goals if we make health and safety a stated value and key priority in everything we do. Our primary objective is to create a culture where people trust it is possible to work free of illness or injury — regardless of where a mine is located in the world or what role each worker performs.
In this section, we report how we manage health, safety and loss prevention (HSLP) programs at our operations worldwide, how well we performed in 2007 as well as our goals moving forward.
