EXXARO COLLABORATES WITH TRADE UNIONS TO CURB COVID-19 STIGMA

“Viruses don’t discriminate, people do.” A powerful HIV-related slogan that reminds us that we are all at risk of contracting COVID-19, regardless of our gender, race, age, abilities, or social standing. Yet, we still tend to stigmatise those affected by the virus, labelling them as being ‘high-risk’, ‘infected’ or ‘victims’. This us versus them mentality segregates families, communities, and countries, undermining all efforts to prevent and treat COVID-19. Exxaro recognises the importance of standing against stigma to unite and protect all South Africans. As such, the forward-thinking mining group has partnered with various trade unions on an anti-stigma communications campaign to support employees who have been affected by the virus.
