INDEPENDENCE GROUP NL SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2018

SAFETY In FY18, IGO’s people (collectively IGO’s direct employees and our contractor’s on-site) only suffered one serious injury (defined as losing more than two weeks work). The individual injured his shoulder when lifting equipment into a vehicle. Following surgical treatment, he required 29 days off work and a further 41 days on restricted duties. A further four people suffered less serious lost time injuries (i.e. injuries requiring time off work). A further 35 people suffered injuries requiring medical treatment or temporary reassignment to alternate duties. In FY18, IGO employees and contractors worked 2,039,926 hours resulting in a total of 226 of our people sustaining injuries requiring some type of treatment, including minor first aid. This is 34% higher than the 178 injuries that occurred in FY17. In FY18, AngloGold Ashanti’s employees and contractors at Tropicana worked 2,094,511 hours resulting in a total of 174 people sustaining injuries requiring some type of treatment. This is 6.1% higher than the 164 injuries that were recorded during FY17. IGO’s Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) for FY18 was 2.39 injuries per million hours and the Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR) of 19.14. Tropicana Operation’s LTIFR, which is not included in IGO’s statistics, for FY18 was 0.47. IGO’s LTI results for FY18 compare favorably to the most recently published averages for the Western Australian nickel mining sector and metalliferous underground mining sector of 3.9 and 2.9 respectively. IGO acknowledges that the significant injuries were painful and caused distress to the injured people, their workmates and their families. We are not satisfied with our overall safety performance. Our clear objective is to improve, and significant organisational effort is being applied to this end. Our goal is to have no significant injuries (defined as any injury requiring medical treatment or time off work). In FY18, IGO had 24 new workers’ compensation claims, compared to 28 in FY17. Nine were unresolved as of 1 July 2018. In addition to injury outcomes, IGO is focused on the potential outcomes; the “near misses”. In FY18, there were 13 incidents where there was the credible potential for a fatality. Whilst each of these events resulted in either no injury or a minor injury, the potential outcomes were acknowledged, and adjustments made to our business practices to mitigate risks and minimise exposure to the hazards involved in the future. Reducing these potential incidents will continue to be a key focus in FY19. Often injuries and “near-miss” incidents can have a wider impact, causing distress not only to the affected individual, but also to their families and workmates. In response to this, IGO will continue its ongoing program to improve safety behaviours, our systems of work and our workplaces with the goal of minimising the risk of harm to our employees in FY19.
