Developing our people – retaining our talent 

At CAML, developing our people is key to retaining talent and supporting long-term operational performance. In 2025, CAML delivered over 44,000 hours of training, representing an average of 38 hours per employee. This investment supports safe operations, reduces operational risk and enables the development of a skilled, locally- based workforce.

CAML invests in continuous professional development through specialist technical training, conference participation and comprehensive health and safety training. This supports employee progression and engagement, fostering a positive work culture and strengthening workforce stability and retention. According to our analysis of peers with relevant business models and geographies, we have a low voluntary leaver rate of 2.7%,with 31 leavers in 2025.

Workforce development is supported through specialist training in areas such as geological software, tailings management, rehabilitation, environmental topics and the effective use of artificial intelligence. Training in artificial intelligence supports productivity, data-driven decision making and future workforce readiness. In addition, we provide English language courses at both Sasa and Kounrad to aid career development. The Group also supports employees’ further education by sponsoring undergraduate and postgraduate studies, aligned to business needs, particularly in technical and engineering disciplines. This investment strengthens the long-term pipeline of skilled professionals within the Group. This structured approach enables CAML to: deploy training resources effectively, ensuring employees have the skills required to operate safely; adapt to evolving operational demands; support continuous improvement across the site; and retain talent.
