We are committed to promoting the health, safety and well-being of our workforce, while continuously strengthening an inclusive, respectful and agile workplace culture where a broad range of experience, knowledge, backgrounds, cultures and heritage drives innovation, enhances operational performance and strengthens relationships with stakeholders. We believe the connection between FCX and its local communities is essential, and we are dedicated to fostering trusting, long-term relationships that create and maintain shared value for both the company and communities now and in the future.
Health, Safety and Well-Being
Protecting the health, safety and well-being of our workforce, suppliers and communities is our highest priority. Safety is a core value and integral to every aspect of our operations. Through our global safety strategy, Safe Production Matters, we aim to prevent fatalities, reduce injuries and eliminate systemic root causes of incidents. We equip our workforce with training, tools and resources to identify hazards and apply effective controls, while leveraging technology and data analytics to enhance safe work practices. We share lessons learned across the company, engage experts and collaborate with industry peers to strengthen our programs. Beyond the workplace, we work with local communities and public health officials to address regional health challenges, improve access to clean water and support health education initiatives. This comprehensive approach reflects our commitment to zero workplace fatalities and to fostering a safe, healthy environment for our people and the communities where we operate.
