GOLD FIELDS LIMITED Our mines continue to operate as normal to date. We are guided by the principle of prioritising the safety and wellbeing of our people and would not hesitate to act should their health be at risk.
We have put numerous measures in place, both at our mines and at our offices, to avoid potential infections and to ensure that any disruptions at our operations are limited.
Among these measures are: Strict adherence to country-specific regulations, government decrees and protocols, as and when issued
Appropriate management structures and protocols have been activated at Group, regional and mine level
Comprehensive hygiene awareness campaigns at all offices and mines
Imposition of indefinite business travel bans for all company employees and self-quarantine for employees returning from holiday
Limiting visits by international consultants and service providers to our offices or mines
Self-quarantine for any employees displaying flu-like symptoms
Social distancing of employees, where practical
Establishing quarantine facilities at our mines
We will review the situation at regular intervals to decide on further actions if required.
We are also currently assessing stocks of critical input materials for our mines and will be adding to our supplies, if possible.
