OUR STRATEGY & APPROACH

We work cross-functionally and in close collaboration with contract security providers and other stakeholders to support our daily security operations and incident management approach, in alignment with our policies and procedures relating to human rights. Our approach gives special consideration to vulnerable groups.

Plans, Programs & Initiatives

• We are a full member of the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights.
• We apply aspects of the World Gold Council Conflict-Free Gold Standard at all operations and we fully comply with the World Gold Council Conflict-Free Gold Standard at operations located in conflict-affected regions.
• Response mechanisms at each site help us understand and respond to community questions and concerns around perceived or actual impacts of our activities.
• Training on security and human rights is provided to security contractors approximately every four months.

2024 Goals

• Train all security contractors in human rights and use of force, and all security employees in human rights.
