Local Employment
Creating meaningful livelihoods for our employees is one of the most powerful positive social impacts of our business, especially when we are able to create new opportunities for diverse and potentially vulnerable groups who may have limited alternatives, such as women, youth and residents of remote areas. Our operations employ more than 9,000 people in a wide variety of trades and professions – from geologists and miners, to engineers, electricians, mechanics, accountants, information technology specialists, and more. About 98% of our workforce are nationals from our host countries.
The skills, knowledge, and experience our employees gain while working for Kinross help them succeed throughout their careers. Stable employment and compensation contribute to improved well-being for our employees and their families.
