Kumba has introduced an initiative aimed at better understanding and responding to cardiovascular risks among our employees and contractors. By looking at health-related performance indicators that could impact on cardiovascular risk, we have been assessing each individual’s potential risks of a cardiovascular incident such as. heart attack or stroke. We respond according to the level of risk identified, with more decisive intervention taken in employees diagnosed as having a medium or high risk of a cardiovascular incident within 10 years. Since the launch of the initiative in August 2022, 89% of employees have received their “heart health score”. Six employees are at high risk and 214 employees are at moderate risk. Clinical management has been undertaken in conjunction with their treating clinicians and further preventative and rehabilitation programmes are planned for 2023.
