Konkola Copper Mines PLC has further extended its appreciation to its employees across its operations by providing top end weatherproofing jackets in recognition of their contribution towards the achievement of the 10,000-tonne copper production milestone.
The gesture is in line with KCMโs continued recognition of the collective effort of employees towards achieving the milestone, reflecting the spirit of one team and one goal, while encouraging employees to continue working towards greater achievements.
The event which was anchored by the theme โRemembering Homeโ is centred on the importance of following safety procedures, identifying and addressing hazards as well as reporting unsafe acts and near misses to help ensure everyone returns home safely. Speaking during the opening of the event, KCM Deputy Chief Safety and Sustainability Officer (HSE) Lloyd Moomba, reminded employees of the importance of keeping loved ones in mind when making decisions or undertaking tasks at work.
Speaking during the handover, KCM Acting CEO Malcolm Mewett said the jackets were a small token of appreciation to employees and a way of recognising their collective contribution to the milestone.
Mr Mewett encouraged employees to continue with the team spirit and look for opportunities to improve the way they work. He said KCM was committed to creating opportunities for employee growth and development.
Speaking on behalf of the Mineworkers Union of Zambia (MUZ), Senior Chairperson Ernest Lesa thanked KCM for the gesture, saying it was a meaningful way of appreciating employees and could motivate them to improve their performance.
The total investment for this employee initiative is valued at approximately K5.8m which highlights KCMโs continued commitment to enhancing its reward and recognition programme, whilst encouraging continuous operational improvement and fostering a culture where employees are motivated to contribute to KCMโs continued growth and success.
