STATEMENT FROM MARK CUTIFANI
CHIEF EXECUTIVE
We have been working to address the challenges of longstanding under representation imbalance within our industry, most evident at senior levels. While we are demonstrating our commitment through the actions we have taken and the improvements made at all levels of our business, both globally and within the UK, we recognise we still have much more to do and we know it will take time. Across our global business, from a gender perspective, we are aligned with the Hampton-Alexander recommendations to achieve at least a 33% female representation across our Executive Committee and those that report to it. We are making good progress and will achieve this by 2023. The Board now exceeds the Hampton-Alexander board target, 42% female representation as at 1st June 2021. The Government-supported review by Sir John Parker recommends FTSE 100 boards appoint at least one ethnically diverse board candidate by the end of 2021. Anglo American plc currently has two directors of colour on our Board.

We continue to strive to create a more inclusive workplace to enable all our colleagues to achieve their full potential. We are adopting and embedding new approaches to recruitment, talent development, mentoring, and flexible working; while also focusing on both the psychological, as well as physical, safety of every one of our colleagues – aligned to our Values and guided by our Purpose.

EMPLOYEE PERSPECTIVE

Fernanda Vergara

I’m Fernanda Vergara, I’m a psychologist, I’m 28 years old and I’m currently working at Anglo American as an Inclusion & Diversity Specialist. I started my career in the company as an HR Graduate in Chile, my home country, within a program that develops young talent and forms them to be the next leaders of the corporation. In that position, I could learn the work of the different areas of HR, such as Career Development, Compensation & Benefits, and Talent Acquisition, the latter being the area in which I finally worked for more than a year. Likewise, I could lead different initiatives regarding Inclusion & Diversity in that country.
