Newmont’s Values at Work During the Pandemic

August 06, 2020

Newmont’s unwavering values of safety, integrity, sustainability, inclusion and responsibility have guided our response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

To protect our workforce and neighboring communities against COVID-19, Newmont has been actively partnering with multiple organizations to manage the health, social and economic risks of the COVID outbreak. A wellbeing strategy has been rolled out to provide guidance addressing the needs of our workforce in the face of physical, emotional, financial and social challenges.

Integrity and sustainability are also core values of Newmont. The Newmont Global Community Support Fund is an example of these values in action. By engaging with local governments, medical institutions, charities and non-governmental organizations to target funds toward addressing the greatest needs, Newmont is not just doing the right thing as a global corporate citizen, we are also acting as a catalyst for long-term resiliency and future community development in the jurisdictions where we operate.

Creating an inclusive environment, where employees have the opportunity to contribute, develop and work together to deliver on our strategy, is an ongoing priority for us. During this challenging period, our workforce has illustrated through campaigns like #TogetherWhileApart that the core value of inclusion is firmly entrenched in our culture.

Taking responsibility to deliver on our commitments, demonstrating leadership, and having the courage to speak up and challenge the status quo means we do so even in unprecedented times.

We have a long-standing commitment to responsible and sustainable mining, a desire to support healthy and vibrant communities, and an ongoing pledge to ensure those who support our activities are resilient as we collectively confront and ultimately recover from the pandemic. From our rapid-response teams that have been fully mobilized to our employees that are supporting these efforts and working to optimize the impact of the response, we are immensely proud that our workforce is embracing Newmont’s core values.
