Mining, a pioneer in national, regional and local development
 

Mining is a strong tool for regional development. At one time, it was the main incentive for building basic infrastructures in regions where it had developed. Today, it remains a mainstay of development.

Mining has not just brought employment and better incomes for its staff and the community, but has always provided the impetus for bringing in medical, school and socio-cultural infrastructure. It has also encouraged a response in terms of meeting the basic needs of the people living nearby and the integration of technology in the regions where it is present. This basic infrastructure necessary directly for mining and indirectly for regional development represents at least 25 to 30% of the cost of a development project.

Environmental protection and rational use of natural resources under proper conditions of hygiene, health and staff safety, is a tradition in the mining industry.

 


 

Confirming our QSE commitment, developing our human resources, being good at what we do, respecting our environment and affirming our commitment to our partners, these are the foundations of our sustainable development policy.

 

To better meet the expectations of our partners, customers, shareholders, staff and society and maintain and constantly improve our performances, MANAGEM has the following priority goals:

achieve, maintain and seek to improve the highest level of quality for our products and services, in accordance with our customers' specifications;
protect the health and safety of our staff by preventive measures and compliance with safety rules in the work place and include safety in the project design phase;
Protect our natural environment, by ensuring compliance with regulations and the other commitments our Group has made;
Reduce industrial risks as part of a general Risk-Management policy;

Involve all our partners in our improvement initiatives.

To give itself every chance of success, MANAGEM has set up an organization dedicated to the sustainable development approach. It is the Human Resources and Communication Division which manages coordination of these actions between all the subsidiaries.
