The company which is known for abiding by its values of giving back to the community has been at the forefront of serving the community in which it mines.

“Zimplats has demonstrated its core value of care by donating mealie meal and sugar beans to 10 charity organisations that care for orphans, the elderly and people with disability, as part of efforts to assist the homes in providing wholesome meals,” the company said.

Zimplats late last year partnered with the Mhondoro Ngezi Rural District Council (MNRDC) to construct a COVID-19 isolation centre, with Zimplats donating the furniture and equipment valued at US$43 000.

Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Zimplats has demonstrated its core values of respect, care and delivery by donating ventilators, oxygen concentrators, oxygen tanks, disinfectants, sanitisers and knapsack sprayers and surgical masks to 8 hospitals as part of efforts to empower medical institutions.

Management of Zimplats has activated a vaccination programme for all employees (including contractors) and their dependents, placing the Group on a firm footing to fight the pandemic in the workplace in the future.

The platinum giant’s operations continue to be under strict adherence to Covid-19 management protocols which were developed in Financial Year 2020 and reviewed throughout the year to respond to changing circumstances.
