Local Employment

For local communities, employment opportunities are a primary benefit of our presence, and we seek to maximize local hiring at all our operations.

At Seabee, five local communities, (defined by their proximity to the mine) are the focus of our outreach efforts. At Puna Operations, there are 14 local communities. Six are defined as ‘direct’, and eight as ‘indirect’, based on their proximity. At the Chinchillas mine, 100% of recent hires have been residents of local communities. At the Marigold Mine, a significant majority of the workforce are residents of Nevada.
