TALENT MANAGEMENT
99% of Exxaro’s employees are sourced from our host communities in South Africa. They are given numerous opportunities to remain competent and relevant in their respective roles. High potential individuals are also sought within the same communities for our trainee pipeline, and they are placed in relevant skills development programmes or awarded bursaries, internships, and learnerships. We thus empower local community members to compete for positions in the company. Training is provided in mostly engineering and mining disciplines at the Grovos Training Centre in Lephalale and the Colliery Training College in eMalahleni. In 2020, 89% of the learners taking part in our learnership programmes were black people, 38% of which were black women.
GRADUATE PROGRAMMES
The three-year PIT programme of Exxaro is a world-class development opportunity for recently graduated engineers & graduates into which young talent is recruited, trained and prepared for successful careers in the organisation.
