“The safety of our employees is a major focus at all our operations and every
effort is being made to embed a proactive safety culture to ensure we achieve
our objective of zero harm and zero loss of life. After an extended period

than the loss of one of our colleagues. We are deeply saddened by the incident
and will ensure a full investigation into the cause of this tragedy”, Peter
Steenkamp, chief executive officer of Harmony said.


The board of Harmony and the management team extend their condolences to the
