Contract Jobs in Ghana

AngloGold Ashanti in Ghana realized, as many other companies in the sectors have, that addressing health problems at the broader community level saves money and increases productivity in the process.

AngloGold Ashanti is a global gold mining company with operations throughout Africa, the Americas, and Australia. Many of the countries in which it operates face serious health problems. In Ghana, for instance, malaria is endemic. One of AngloGold Ashanti’s major mining operations in Ghana is located in Obuasi, in the southern part of the Ashanti region. For a company that relies on a local workforce, the health of the community is critical, and high rates of malaria among mine workers severely affected the business.

In 2005, the hospital operated by AngloGold Ashanti and located near the mine treated an average of 6,800 malaria cases per month, of which 2,500 were mine employees. That figure represented more than 30 percent of the workforce at the mine. Worker absenteeism and low productivity during recovery entailed serious costs.Beyond the direct effects of infection on the worker population, the disease also had secondary impacts on productivity, as mine workers often stayed home from work to care for sick family members
