Agnico Eagle Mines Limited - Sustainability - Social

Agnico Eagle’s people and culture have always been a competitive strength and advantage. We seek to be a place where people want to work because it is meaningful and offers purpose, and one where they are given the opportunity to further develop their skills and grow their careers.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) are encompassed by Agnico Eagle’s core values of Family, Trust, Respect, Responsibility and Equity and essential to the growth and success of our Company. We are working to create a diverse, inclusive and collaborative workplace where everyone can show up to work as themselves, free of barriers or feelings of exclusion.

Our Diversity and Inclusion Policy outlines our approach and responsibilities, including treating each other, fairly and consistently with equal access to opportunities and recognition, valuing workforce diversity and promoting the benefits of diversity and inclusion.

Our Diversity and Inclusion Steering Committee has executive sponsors and dedicated resources. The Committee has oversight responsibility for the monitoring and implementation of the Diversity and Inclusion Policy.

Our long-term strategy is based on employee feedback from formal surveys, available data and other feedback mechanisms, both formal and informal and covers three key pillars.

Retaining, Training and Developing Our People

We ensure our employees have the tools and skills they need to perform their jobs efficiently and safely and to achieve their full potential. We place a particular emphasis on health and safety training, to ensure our employees apply Agnico Eagle’s workplace health and safety standards. We provide training that enhances employees’ personal and career development opportunities through our ‘People Development’ process.

Our people development and training approach includes both company-wide and site-specific initiatives. At a minimum, an employee’s performance is evaluated annually. This approach ensures that we develop and attract talented people to support operational continuity across all phases of our projects.

Creating Local Employment

Our goal is to hire 100% of our workforce, including our management teams, directly from the region/country in which each of our operations are located. While we still have work to do, to reach our goal the majority of our workforce and senior management teams are local.
