Commitment to personal development.

The well-being of each person is a priority and must be fulfilled considering the following two main guidelines:

Integral development, liberty, integration, diversity and inclusion.

HMC is a workplace that fosters the development of each and everyone’s talents. Consequently, we value and appreciate differences, promote respect for human dignity and do not permit any type of discrimination. We recognize good performance and generate learning and education opportunities for all employees and workers as we also unrestrictedly respect the freedom of workers’ unions, fostering a sense of family and unconditional collaboration.

Safety and health

We work to achieve the best health and safety standards existing in the mining industry. We foster activities to ensure proper care among all employees, to generate a culture that values permanent protection and prevention in the workplace. We look after each other, fostering mutual care and awareness in every activity, maintaining a culture that promotes active and constant safety practices. Risk management and prevention is a fundamental task.  We promote unrestricted compliance of risk prevention and occupational safety regulations, ensuring the proper operation of Joint Health and Safety Committees involving senior executives and all those who play a role in supervising and safety prevention.

Austerity, good practices:

Our commitment is towards integrity in our behavior, both inside and outside the organization. Our practices must be austere, simple and honest.  We look for a continuous improvement, without arrogance or grandiloquence of any. Fair treatment, kindness and respect are considered basic norms of relationships at the workplace.

Excellence. Quality initiatives:

We value and promote initiative and excellence, both individual and group.  We promote entrepreneurship, understanding each other’s work as part of a necessary and essential system for the success and advancement of the company, both in general terms and to assure the continuity of our operations in the long term.

Innovation and new technologies:

As part f a complex industry and the medium-sized mining segment, we are faced with sophisticated challenges that need to be addressed with ingenuity and a mindset for innovation, adapting methodologies and existing technologies, as well as opening our company to new possibilities and solutions offered by the market.

5.

Circular mining:

Our actions and mine site operations must always be evaluated in harmony with our surroundings and the neighboring communities. We conduct our work considering the protection, care and mitigation of negative externalities by carrying out operations that are responsible with the use of natural resource.  We are mining recyclers, promoting circular mining with the proper management of industrial waste contributing to sustainable development.
