In line with Exxaro’s broader strategy, Belfast Coal is committed to making sure that all Pioneers are healthy and safe. This unwavering focus on Health and Wellness has helped us to implement initiatives that are aimed at improving the quality of life, morale, and productivity of Pioneers.
In October, the Women in Mining Committee hosted a Wellness Day, inviting different organisations that provide a range of services, from mental health, health diagnostics, medical aid providers, and even the South African Blood Service (SANBS) was present to encourage Pioneers to save lives by donating blood.
The Department of Health was also present, demonstrating Exxaro’s inclusive and collaborative approach in all our key areas. The company’s approach extends beyond compliance; it is driven by an understanding and undertaking that the growth and sustainability of our business depend on healthy and resilient employees.
The day was filled with energy and purpose, offering a variety of interactive and restorativeactivities designed to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being. From fun fitness and relaxation sessions to mental wellness stations, healthy treats, and on-site health screenings, every element reflected Exxaro’s commitment to caring for the holistic well-being of its employees. Wellness is a way of life. Pioneers, keep making good choices and embracing healthy living! Changing habits – both at work and beyond.
