EMPOWERING WOMEN TO SURVIVE AND THRIVE BEYOND 2020

In the wake of the global pandemic, a murky ‘shadow pandemic’ has emerged from which no country is immune. Violence and abuse against women and girls have been intensified by security, health and financial concerns, and compounded by the lockdown measures in many countries. President Cyril Ramaphosa faced the ugly truth when he stated, “As a country, we find ourselves in the midst of not one, but two, devastating pandemics. Although very different in their nature and cause, they can both be overcome – if we work together, if we each take personal responsibility for our action and if we each take care of each other.” As the number of Covid-19 infections rises in South Africa, the impact on women is becoming more obvious.

EXXARO RESILIENT AMIDST TOUGH TRADING CONDITIONS

13 August 2020: Exxaro Resources Limited (Exxaro) – the black empowered diversified resources group - reported positively resilient results for the six-month period ended 30 June 2020, a notable achievement in the face of global trade tensions, a challenging local economy and a decline in thermal coal pricing.

OVERCOMING GENDER INEQUALITY IS A PRIORITY AT EXXARO

While gender inequality in the workplace continues to be of concern in South Africa (and the rest of the world), businesses like Exxaro have been looking for ways to bridge the gap. In a male-dominated industry like mining, women have proven themselves to be just as competent and valuable - despite the industry-related stigma and stereotypes. At Exxaro, we know that giving more women a seat at the table is key to facilitating growth and innovation within the business. This has further encouraged the management team to find ways to bridge this gap and empower women to promote a more diverse and inclusive mining sector. I’m proud to say that Exxaro has been involved with some incredibly impactful initiatives targeted at empowering women.
