IWiM was thrilled to launch new resources for our Respect at Work platform at the #IDWIM2024 event! In collaboration with the Mining Industry Human Resources Council (MiHR), we translated their "Safe Workplaces for All" postcards into Spanish and Portuguese to reach a wider audience. These postcards are now available here: https://lnkd.in/dKZkd_Hk These materials, which were previously only in English, French, and Inuktitut, address sexual harassment in the mining sector. They outline the rights, responsibilities, and support systems available to employers, unions, employees, including complainants, respondents, and witnesses. Accessible formats include postcards, posters, and stickers. More information can be found here: https://lnkd.in/d4ynnpxY Our Respect at Work platform provides survivors a place to share their stories and has access to essential SGBVH resources for everyone.

Today we share a picture from Mary M Anda who is a Senior Safety Compliance Advisor at Ok Tedi Mining Limited from Papua New Guinea. In her words - "This photo was taken on the West Bank with the dredge vessel named Cap Martin (operated by Dredeco) in the background when I was doing work site safety inspections." ____ IWiM loves to highlight #womeninmining at their places of work throughout the globe! We celebrate women's presence and resilience doing what they love by sharing photos submitted to our photo campaign and their accompanying stories.

What’s in a word? What comes to mind when you hear the term DEI? Diversity, equity, inclusion, belonging etc. are terms on their own and are also frameworks when joined up together and depending on the letter combination emphasise more one area than another. Many nuanced definitions are out there for diversity, equality, equality and inclusion etc., unfortunately making it harder for everyone to clearly understand these terms, align and work together towards achieving similar goals. For example, equity and equality are not synonyms. Both words are often used interchangeably, when in reality, they mean different things and how they are implemented can result in different outcomes for underrepresented groups and individuals. To support the global mining industry, IWiM launched a new DEI Definitions page on our website at our #IDWIM2024 event. This will assist everyone in understanding what terms like #diversity, #equity, #equality and #inclusion mean. Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/dkhw7KDa Do you have additional definitions or resources to share? What do you think of the new page? Share with us in the comments! #DEI #MiningIndustry #MiningResources

Knowledge and data resources are key to create a better and more inclusive mining industry, and they are of vital importance to understand the needs and requirements of #womeninmining today. That’s where IWiM’s Gender and Mining Library comes in! The Library has over 600 reports indexed across 30 topics in multiple languages. It tackles the industry’s lack of detailed data on the female workforce hindering awareness, forecasting, advocacy, and accurate impact assessment. Language has the power to reinforce or deconstruct systems of power that maintain poverty, inequality and suffering. Oxfam created the Inclusive Language Guide as a resource to support people who have to communicate in English to think about how the way they write can subvert or inadvertently reinforce intersecting forms of inequality. The language recommended is drawn from specialist organisations which provide advice on language preferred by marginalised people, groups and communities to make choices that respectfully reflect the way they wish to be referred to. Read it here - https://lnkd.in/dhZcUzPx The Gender and Mining Library is an open resource gathers reports, articles, toolkits and academic papers on gender and DEI in mining and related sectors. It gathers information from industries all over the world, on various topics such as women in STEM; workplace design; gender and development, and more! Ready to explore?

Last week, IWiM Founder and Director Barbara Dischinger (She/Her/Hers) spoke at the Future Challenges for Mining seminar hosted by the IOM3 (Institute of Materials, Minerals & Mining) in London. During the panel discussion, she shared her views on “Mining companies tell us they are increasingly struggling to recruit and retain talent. Is this at least in part because so very often, people with marginalized identities just don’t feel welcome in mining?” “Absolutely. The challenge of recruiting and retaining talent is deeply connected to how inclusive our workplaces are. However, it is a complex and nuanced issue. More work is required overall before we can say that it is an industry where everyone feels that they belong. It requires a holistic and strategic reset of the workplace; a retrofit is no longer enough. When people feel they can perform, be themselves and that they belong they will stay and be your biggest ambassadors and bring more people to join you.” Barbara focused her reply to Colin Church’s statement on intersectionality using story telling. Read the full conversation here - https://lnkd.in/drhh2Xwb Our call to you: You may not alone solve all the sectors issues but you still individually play a vital role. However, creating a world that is fair for everyone is up to all of us. You can help by looking out for each other, showing one another respect, kindness and thinking about the different ways others may experience the world. Be curious, Speak up, Be open, Be an ally! We all as a collective can work towards retention in mining! #MiningIndustry #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #DEI #EmployeeRetention #Inclusiveworkplaces
