Local Employment Opportunities
Sustaining cooperative relations with the areas and communities in which we do business is essential for our mining operations and other businesses. We strive to co-exist and co-prosper with local communities by creating employment opportunities and through local procurement in the context of our business activities in addition to engaging in dialogue with local people, implementing environmental conservation activities, participating in and sponsoring local events, offering tours of our business locations, and undertaking other activities to establish mutual understanding and trust-based relationships.
Declaration of Partnership Building
We announced our Declaration of Partnership Building with the aim of promoting mutual prosperity throughout the supply chain and ensuring fair and equitable transactions through collaboration across businesses of all sizes and adherence to advancement standards. Our Group seeks to build new partnerships by further enhancing value-added aspects through strengthened trust with partner companies.
