Safety
Xstrata has a target of zero fatalities, injuries and work-related illness amongst all employees and contractors. We invest in employee wellness through a range of programmes that target mental and physical health issues such as obesity, smoking, stress, depression and alcohol and drug abuse. We support local programmes that tackle such global health issues as HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. Where appropriate, we work with local non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to leverage our respective strengths.
