Abstract:
This research report explores the actions taken by mining companies, with specific focus on Kumba Iron Ore, to overcome the challenges in creating an organisational culture that accommodates women in core positions in the mines. Although more and more women are employed by mining companies worldwide, progress is hampered by the barriers in this historically male-dominated environment, which need to be overcome. South African legislation requires mining companies to meet women-in-mining targets as set out by the mining charter, forcing the mining industry to revisit opportunities for female em

A deficient safety culture has been implicated in a number of organisational accidents from a range of high hazard industries.

Second, it has failed to acknowledge that officers have a choice whether or not to engage in certain behaviours.
