Human Rights

"Whilst our members operate independently of the WGC in relation to their own activities, we note and welcome the support to human rights demonstrated by our members’ commitment to The Responsible Gold Mining Principles, released in September 2019. These Principles specifically talk to Human Rights and Conflict, committing all implementing companies to respect the human rights of their workforce, affected communities and all those people with whom they interact. Conformance with the Responsible Gold Mining Principles is a requirement for membership of the WGC."
