HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELLBEING

Emerald recognises that people are its greatest asset and integral to a sustainable and profitable Company and as such is committed to ensuring the health and safety of all personnel.

The Company aims to provide a work environment that prevents serious injuries. As the Okvau Gold Project and Dingo Range Gold Project progresses, the Company adapts its health and safety practices and procedures accordingly. By empowering employees and fostering a culture that proactively detects and reduces risk, as well as striving for continuous safety improvement, Emerald believes it can achieve a zero-harm workplace.

Emerald records and reports health and safety performance using two main metrics. 

Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) – A work-related incident that results in a person’s injury losing more than one (1) complete rostered shift/day from work against the number of workers present and the number of hours worked.

Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR) – A measure of occupational health and safety based on the number of injuries that require more than a first aid treatment against the number of workers present and the number of hours worked.

As at 31 March 2025, the Company recorded a Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) of 0.00 per million hours worked (LTIs). These statistics include both contractors and employees. 

The TRIFR as at 31 March 2025 was 0.94 across all Emerald’s operations and sites.
