Minera Yanacocha’s Project Development Group reached a safety milestone after working 10 million man hours (since December 2008) without a lost time accident.
“I want to thank everyone for the excellent management of safety and loss prevention in our area, which is reflected in the achievement of this significant milestone and the very good performance indicators achieved over the past two years,” said David Lee, project development manager. “I urge everyone to continue striving to improve our safety management, and I challenge you to maintain and improve our results going forward.”
Lee encouraged the group to continue conducting monthly safety attitude stops, reducing traffic incidents and reporting all incidents, as well as correcting the root causes of these incidents and accidents.
