The Coronavirus is a virus similar to the common cold or flu. Not everyone who becomes infected with the Coronavirus gets sick, and not everyone who gets sick becomes very ill.
Most people (about 80%) recover without needing special treatment.
Stopping the spread of COVID-19 requires each every person to act responsibly – at work, at home, while we travel and in our communities. Fred, Joe, Ma Joyce, Dr Wilson, Sarah, Noah and Omar show us how to keep ourselves and others safe and healthy every day.
Spread the knowledge far and wide to our colleagues, our families, our friends and our communities

Colleagues,
In an effort to protect frontline medical staff and patients, AngloGold Ashanti, Sasol and Imperial have created a partnership to provide bulk supplies of hand sanitizer at four major Gauteng state hospitals: Chris Hani Baragwanath Academic, Charlotte Maxeke Academic, Helen Joseph and Leratong hospitals.
It is crucial to have enough supplies of hand sanitizer to mitigate the spread of COVID-19 in hospitals. The current precautions being taken at all medical facilities and the expected increase in cases in the months ahead will require medical facilities to have more than their usual stock of sanitizer. The partnering companies have worked closely with the dedicated clinical managers at the hospitals to find an innovative way to address the need for sanitizer in a sustainable way.
Until there is a vaccine for COVID-19, general hand hygiene remains an effective line of defense. Experience from around the world has shown that partnerships are an effective way to increase the impact of relief efforts.
We’re proud to join hands with our peers at Sasol and Imperial in this crucial effort toward our collective goal of flattening and eventually bending the curve. A partnership that brings together not only capital, but complementary assets and skill sets will be vital to changing the course of this pandemic.
Sasol has significantly intensified its relief efforts towards COVID-19 by generously agreeing to support the increased production of the hand sanitizer and will share the cost of production with AngloGold Ashanti, which will also provide the specially manufactured bulk-storage tanks for the product.
Imperial, which is playing a pivotal role in ensuring South Africa’s supply chains continue to function, has brought its freight and logistics expertise to bear by ensuring that the sanitiser tanks are safely transported from Sasol to the four hospitals in Gauteng. Additional partners will be sought to ensure this project is not only sustainable but could perhaps be extended to other facilities.
Respectfully yours,
Kelvin Dushnisky
Chief Executive Officer
Dear Colleagues,
Once again I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to you for the discipline and resilience you continue to show in these difficult times. Not only are you faced with a demanding work environment, but most of you are also experiencing upheaval in wider society.
The impact of COVID-19 across the world and in the countries and on the sites in which we operate, has been profound. Even in the midst of the challenging circumstances, the determination and diligence being shown in the daily tasks, as well as the strong morale and teamwork at every level, is truly humbling.
We are starting to see many of the measures taken to beat COVID-19 bearing fruit. And from that we can all take great hope. As we work to ensure the safety of all who work for AngloGold Ashanti, their families, loved ones and host communities, we must be aware that we cannot let our guard down – even as the news becomes more encouraging in some parts of the world. There is simply no place for complacency.
You can be assured that we, as a leadership team, are also not being complacent as we look to the future. We’re fortunate to have a diverse portfolio with more than 85% of our production capacity still in operation. We’re equally fortunate to have a robust gold price. But we understand that this pandemic creates an unpredictable operating environment. We’ve already taken steps to improve our liquidity, by bolstering our cash position. We’re also looking at ways to conserve cash and reduce unnecessary spending, in order to improve the resilience of our company through the duration of this uncertainty, and to ensure we do everything necessary to look after all the people in our organisation. Of course, a strong operating and financial performance will also be crucial in this regard.
These steps together will allow us to emerge from this environment in the best possible position to take advantage of this strong market.
As we come to this holiday weekend, I want to highlight just how much the commitment of all our employees in every country is greatly appreciated. The fact that some of you are staying longer on site and altering your work patterns to allow our operations to keep running, shows tremendous resolve. Indeed, for every one of the AngloGold Ashanti family who is working – on sites, at home, or in any other location – during this challenging time, you have our gratitude.
For those away from home, we are working to extend broadband capacity across each site to make sure that you will have the opportunity to better connect with your loved ones.
We are also mindful that some people are working in foreign countries, and assure you that we are monitoring the situation very closely, so that should emergency travel become necessary, this can be implemented.
For those of you who can still spend time with your families at home, please think before you travel anywhere at all – either locally or out of town. I would encourage you to think of the sacrifices that so many are making, and to please stay at home and stay safe. By limiting our movement over this short time, fewer people are likely to become ill and pressure on medical staff and essential services can be eased. Each one of us has a significant part to play.
I have also been extremely proud of how our teams across the group from supply chain, production, human resources, health, finance, safety and security, IM, community and many others, have put in the work to ensure that we are not only trying to protect ourselves and the business going forward, but also the more vulnerable in society.
From the water tank initiatives in South Africa and Tanzania, the massive poster campaign in Ghana, the broadcast information programmes in Guinea and Mali, to the provision of PPE to public services in Argentina, delivering of food packages in Colombia and many other sites, the mental health initiatives in Australia, and donations to hospitals in Brazil, my spirit is lifted by your efforts. These life-saving initiatives are taking place in a world that does not look much like the one we knew even three months ago, and I’m aware that many of you are putting in additional time and application to deliver these projects. We should all be proud of these efforts, and the work that is still to come.
These are extraordinary times, but with grace and perseverance I’m confident we will prevail. The willingness to collaborate across our sites, the application of the sharpest of minds in our business, and the exceptional teamwork and care that so many of you have shown, will ensure that our business remains resilient. These traits will also ensure that we play a meaningful role in helping our societies to navigate through these turbulent times, in order that we all benefit when the storm has passed.
Thank you again for your dedication and hard work. Your resolve and that being shown by people across the business, will help lead us to better times.
Sincerely,
Kelvin Dushnisky
Chief Executive Officer
As the outbreak of COVID-19 continues to spread across South Africa we have a narrow window of opportunity to substantially slow the spread and minimise the impact on the healthcare system and society at large. Social distancing is one way to slow the spread and to “flatten the curve”. This was reiterated in the President’s address to the nation as an urgent measure, to manage the disease and reduce the impact of the outbreak on our society.
If you are ill or think you may have symptoms, you can now do virtual consultations with your doctor. This will prevent medical facilities from becoming overcrowded with people, possibly spreading infection to others.

Colleagues,
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues to wreak havoc across the world, disrupting lives and depressing economic activity, I though it appropriate to share with you our contribution to the fight against this scourge in South Africa.
AngloGold Ashanti is committed to working with government at all levels and a range of other stakeholders in supporting South Africa’s fight to slow the spread of COVID-19. We are working across several fronts to support healthcare providers, bolster community health and hygiene responses, and to provide relief to the most vulnerable in society. Our initiatives are guided by our values and our pledge to protect the health of our employees, their families and host communities.
We’re in support of the steps taken by the South African government to flatten the curve of the number of people infected with the virus, and we continue to comply with the respective measures to this effect.
We have worked closely with expert, multidisciplinary teams from the provincial governments of the North West and Gauteng, to make available two hospitals for their exclusive use as part of the frontline COVID-19 effort. These facilities will be used by the authorities for the treatment and isolation of COVID-19 patients.
The first of these is the fully equipped, 270-bed West Vaal facility near Orkney in the North West province. The second is a West Wits hospital building near Carletonville in western Gauteng, which was closed a number of years ago during restructuring of the SA Region portfolio, and its equipment donated to other healthcare facilities or non-profit organisations in the community. The building, which has capacity for almost 300 beds, is nonetheless in good condition and has the necessary oxygen piping infrastructure and other design elements needed for a fully functioning hospital. The Gauteng Department of Health is working to ensure it is fully equipped and recommissioned in the coming weeks.
This initiative is one of many by businesses across South Africa, and by mining companies in particular, to help ensure preparedness to deal with COVID-19 cases.
Apart from hospitals, other humanitarian support we provide include:
In addition, we have also pledged R20 million to the Solidarity Response Fund, which aims to provide rapid and targeted actions to support the healthcare sector and provide humanitarian support to vulnerable households and communities.
Employees can donate an amount of their choice to the fund or they can contribute to the purchase of food parcel at a cost of R500 per pack. For both contributions the company will match funding Rand for Rand. To donate to the Solidarity Fund please visit https://www.solidarityfund.co.za/ and select a payment option of your choice.
For donation towards care packs, please make payment directly into the Imbumba Foundation Bank Account
Bank: First National Bank
Account Name: Imbumba Foundation Trust
Account number: 6234 513 6677
Reference: Your Identity Number / for non-South Africans, Name and Surname
Proceeds from the fund will be used to provide rapid, and targeted actions to support the healthcare sector in efforts to flatten the curve of infections and provide humanitarian support to. Please send proof of payment to Rea Baitshenyetsi on rmaribe@anglogoldashanti.com
Finally, I’d like to reiterate our commitment to working with communities, its peers, host governments and all other stakeholders, to combat the spread of the virus and to deal with its after-effects.
Stay safe and healthy.
Kind regards,
Kelvin Dushnisky
Chief Executive Officer
Colleagues,
The last few weeks have for all of us been a demanding period as we adjust to the reality of the global COVID-19 pandemic. Thank you to all involved in managing the changes that are coming at us thick and fast, and to every one of you working across the company in very difficult circumstances. Sincerely, well done.
You will have seen the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic over the last week and no doubt your lives have changed dramatically during this time, with altered working arrangements, travel bans and concerns for your own safety, that of your families and loved ones and those of your colleagues and countrymen and women.
The health and safety of all the people who work on our sties, their families and host communities is our first priority and for some weeks now we have had a multi-disciplinary COVID-19 taskforce directing our global response to the crisis. We are continually monitoring the situation as it unfolds, remaining in close contact with authorities in each country.
I’m sure many of you in South Africa would have watched President Cyril Ramaphosa address the country on Monday evening and heard him announce a 21-day nationwide lockdown, starting at midnight on Thursday 26 March. This will mean that the Mponeng Mine and Surface Operations will have to be suspended for this three-week period. More details on this will be communicated to the employees on site.
This action is similar to measures we have seen in Argentina where our CVSA operation has closed until the end of March. Over and above the action by the governments of Argentina and South Africa, all administrations in the countries where we operate – Australia, Brazil, Tanzania, Guinea, Ghana, USA., Mali and Colombia - are doing what they must to limit the spread of COVID-19.
The rest of our mines continue to operate with proactive management of the health crisis. We are in the main led by government protocol. To date it seems a number of countries are keeping the infections rates down through the introduction of travel bans, self-isolation and social distancing.
The hard reality is that the next few months are going to be difficult to navigate. Our management team is prepared to make tough decisions to protect people and the longer-term future of the business.
As I said in an earlier brief, this is an unprecedented situation; but remember this crisis will pass. We must all adhere to the restrictions on the size of gatherings and social distancing measures recommend by governments. Through doing this we can beat coronavirus.
We will continue to keep you updated, and provide you with important information as it becomes available. In the meantime, please follow all the guidelines on hand washing and self-isolation if ill, or if you have travelled to a high-risk country. Most importantly adhere to the recommendations made by the government in the country where you live. Please stay calm and safe.
Kind regards,
Kelvin Dushnisky
Chief Executive Officer

Dear Colleagues,
Following the announcement by President Cyril Ramaphosa on Monday 23 March 2020, South Africa will enter into a total lockdown from midnight on Thursday 26 March to midnight on 16 April.
The health and wellbeing of all our staff is our priority and we need everyone to work together to limit the risks presented by the Coronavirus and support each other. We all have our part to play in flattening the curve. As such, the Corporate Office will be closed, and no access will be allowed, under any circumstances, in compliance with the decree from the Presidency.
Please ensure you have all the necessary tools and material required to work from home. Please contact Tassie Omar in Administration, should you have queries on data usage from home. For business continuity, please maximise the use of technology - Microsoft Teams, Skype and other video and audio conferencing tools to conduct meetings and to connect with colleagues.
We recognise and understand the challenges and uncertainty that the Coronavirus pandemic has created for our staff and their families. In light of the closure of the Corporate Office we have implemented a special leave category, to cater for the period of the lockdown.
The uncertainty of, and the associated challenges of the Coronavirus pandemic may lead you to require professional assistance. Please utilise the Employee Wellness Programme, supported by CAREWAYS, which has been structured to equip employees with tools and strategies to deal with life challenges as a result of personal and work pressures before they impact on their wellbeing and thereby affect their day-to-day functioning. We therefore urge all employees to use the programme effectively and optimally.

Dear Colleagues,
As of 28 January 2020, the World Health Organization reported nearly 6000 cases of the Novel Coronavirus. Just over 130 deaths have been recorded following the outbreak of the newly identified Coronavirus(2019-nCov).
This new and poorly understood virus seems to have originated from the Wuhan City seafood market in China. Most cases diagnosed are from China and more specifically in the city of Wuhan. A small number of cases (less than 3%) have been identified outside China.
While the World Health Organization (WHO) considers this outbreak an emergency in China, it does not constitute a global emergency yet. The WHO and its partners continue to work with the Chinese authorities to contain the outbreak, manage those affected and interrupt further transmission.
There are currently no confirmed cases in the areas where AngloGold Ashanti operates but the timing of the outbreak, around the time of the Lunar New Year when large numbers of Chinese people travel, both inside China and globally to celebrate the event, elevates the risk of interactions with people from affected communities.
The outbreak is therefore considered serious and all resources are being mobilised to ensure optimal prevention and control. Heightened awareness, vigilance, active surveillance as well as attention to personal, and food hygiene measures remain the cornerstone of our defense and control.
In an effort to prevent the spread of the disease, the Chinese government has quarantined about 56 million people in 20 cities of the Hubei province of China. Transport restrictions have been imposed and mass screening, contact tracing and treatment measures instituted to identify the infected and the sick. Treatment is currently supportive and symptomatic.
While this is not a global emergency yet, we continue to monitor the outbreak trends closely so we can adjust our measures accordingly.
The World Health Organization has not recommended a travel ban at this stage.
Coronaviruses are a group of viruses that can cause acute respiratory infections ranging from the common cold to the more severe respiratory outbreaks like the 2012 Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in Saudi Arabia and the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) in China reported in 2002.
While information about the virus is still unfolding, the infections appears to be airborne and therefore transmitted through inhalation and ingestion of infected droplets from infected people. The estimated incubation period before development of sudden respiratory symptoms is believed to be 2-14 days. These symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath and general difficulty breathing.
Infants, the elderly and immune compromised people with underlying chronic diseases like diabetes, cardiac conditions and HIV/AIDS are at higher risk for serious complications and death. There is currently no known vaccine or specific treatment, but available information shows that more than 90% of those diagnosed recover from it.
Current fatality rates of about 2 – 3%, are lower than similar coronavirus disease outbreaks like the MERS outbreak which killed a third of its victims as well as the SARS outbreak with claimed the 10% of the lives of those affected.

Dr. Bafedile Chauke
Vice President: Health – Corporate Affairs
This brief has been distributed to: all AngloGold Ashanti users globally
Dear Colleagues,
In order to protect you and others from the coronavirus (COVID-19), the Corporate Clinic will from tomorrow, 16 March 2020, conduct daily temperature monitoring for all people entering the Corporate Office building. Screening will be conducted by security staff, who have been trained by the professional nurses at the clinic.
A screening desk will be stationed at the ground floor entrance and everyone entering the building will be asked a few simple screening questions. Where a positive case(s) i.e. high temperature, flu-like symptoms and a recent travel history is identified, the individual in question will be referred to a general practitioner for further clinical assessment and investigation for COVID-19.
We urge all employees to cooperate.

Vice President: Health Group Sustainability
Colleagues at the Corporate Office in Johannesburg,
We continue to monitor global trends for the most effective ways of confronting and dealing with the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.
As you all know, this is an unprecedented situation. This means we’ll continue to adapt and improve our response in order to find the best ways to protect you, your families, and our business. As I said last week, this crisis will pass, but in the meantime we need to remain calm, constantly evaluate the situation, adapt or change our approach if the facts support it, and take decisive action wherever necessary.
Please see below a new directive on work, travel and meeting protocols that I believe will help us contribute to the national and global effort to slow down – and ultimately beat – this pandemic. Our colleagues at offices and sites across the business have their own initiatives and protocols to reduce the risk of transmission, but below please see some important information governing this office.
You have a choice to work from home if your role accommodates it, and your manager approves it. We would prefer that you choose to do this. Please ensure you have everything you need to do your job effectively at home, including a laptop or alternative device and that you are always contactable. This will hold until further notice.
(Essential services – including security personnel and medical staff -- will continue to operate at the office.)
You have no choice, and must remain at home, if you:
We will continue to update you on new initiatives as decisions are made, and provide you with important information as it becomes available. In the meantime, please stay vigilant and reduce risk wherever you can.
Kind regards,
Kelvin Dushnisky

Wenzangu mlio katika Ofisi ya Kampuni jijini Johannesburg,
Tunaendelea kufuatilia mwenendo wa duniani kote juu ya njia bora zaidi za kushughulikia na kukabiliana na mlipuko wa Virusi vya Korona (COVID-19).
Kama nyote mjuavyo, hii ni hali ambayo haijawahi kutokea au kujulikana hapo awali. Hii inamaanisha kuwa tutaendelea kutumia na kuboresha mwitikio wetu ili tupate njia bora zaidi za kuwalinda ninyi, familia na biashara yetu. Kama nilivyosema wiki iliyopita, kipindi hiki kigumu kitapita, lakini kwa sasa tunatakiwa tuwe watulivu, tutathmini hali kila wakati, tutumie mbinu iliyopo au tuibadilishe iwapo dhana za kweli zinaiunga mkono na tuchukue hatua bora zaidi panapohitajika.
Tafadhali angalia mwongozo mpya ufuatao kuhusu itifaki za kazi, kusafiri na kufanya mikutano ambayo ninaamini kuwa utatusaidia kuchangia katika juhudi za kitaifa na za ulimwenguni wote za kupunguza kasi – na hatimaye kushinda – maradhi haya yaliyoenea kote. Wenzetu walio katika maofisi na sehemu za kazi katika biashara wana itifaki na mipango yao wenyewe ya kupunguza hatari ya kusambaa, lakini tafadhali angalia baadhi ya maelezo muhimu yanayosimamia ofisi hii hapa chini.
Una chaguo la kufanyia kazi nyumbani iwapo jukumu lako linarukuruhusu na meneja wako ameidhinisha. Tungependelea kuwa uchague kufanya hivyo. Tafadhali hakikisha kuwa una kila kitu unachohitaji ili kufanya kazi yako ipasavyo ukiwa nyumbani, ikiwa ni pamoja na kompyuta ya kupakata au kifaa mbadala na kuwa unaweza kuwasiliana kila wakati. Hali itaendelea kuwa hivyo hadi itakapoarifiwa vinginevyo baadaye.
(Huduma muhimu – ikiwa ni pamoja na walinda usalama na watoa huduma za afya -- wataendelea kufanyia kazi ofisini.)
Huna chaguo, na ni lazima usalie nyumbani iwapo:
Tutaendelea kukuarifu kuhusu mipango mipya maamuzi yanapofanywa na kukupa maelezo muhimu yanapopatikana. Kwa wakati huu, tafadhali endelea kuwa mwangalifu na upunguze hatari kadri uwezavyo.

Nous continuons de suivre les tendances mondiales pour trouver les moyens les plus efficaces d'affronter et de faire face à l’épidemie du coronavirus (COVID-19).
Comme vous le savez tous, c’est une situation sans précédent. Cela signifie que nous continuerons de nous adapter et d’améliorer notre réponse afin de trouver les meilleures façons de vous protéger, vos familles et notre entreprise. Comme je l’ai dit la semaine dernière, cette crise passera, mais en attendant, nous avons besoin de rester calme, évaluer constamment la situation, adapter ou modifier notre approche si les faits le confirment, et prendre des mesures décisives si nécessaire
veuillez voir ci-dessous une nouvelle directive sur le travail, les voyages et les protocoles de réunion qui, je crois, nous aideront à contribuer à l’effort national et mondial pour ralentir- et finalement vaincre – cette pandémie. Nos collègues dans les bureaux et sur les sites, dans l’ensemble de l’entreprise, ont leurs propres initiatives et des protocoles pour réduire le risque de transmission, mais veuillez consulter ci-dessous quelques informations importantes concernant ce bureau.
Vous avez le choix de travailler à la maison si votre rôle le permet, et si votre directeur l’approuve. Nous préférerions que vous choisissiez de le faire. Veuillez vous assurer que vous avez tout ce dont vous avez besoin pour faire votre travail efficacement à la maison, y compris un ordinateur portable ou un autre appareil, y compris un ordinateur portable ou un appareil alternatif et que vous soyez toujours joignable. Cela sera maintenu jusqu’à nouvel ordre.
(Services essentiels – y compris le personnel de sécurité et le personnel médical -- continueront de fonctionner au bureau. )
Vous n’avez pas le choix, et devez rester à la maison si vous :
Nous continuerons de faire le point sur les nouvelles initiatives au fur et à mesure que les décisions seront prises, et nous vous fournirons des informations importantes à mesure qu’elles deviennent disponibles. Entre-temps, veuillez rester vigilants et réduisez les risques partout où vous le pouvez.
Meilleures salutations,
Kelvin Dushnisky
Directeur général
Colleagues,
You will no doubt have been seen the many news headlines about the Coronavirus, or COVID-19, and seen the steps taken by many governments around the world to manage its spread. While I understand the real concern many of you have for your health and wellbeing, and those of your loved ones, this is a moment for calm heads and clear, decisive action -- both individually and together -- to mitigate the impact of this outbreak and prevent the spread of illness.
As a business, we’ve already taken steps in this regard, and are guided by our first priority, which is to ensure your health and safety.
We’ve established two groups which are working hard to protect our people and the business. First, a cross-functional COVID-19 Taskforce that is dealing with strategic approach to managing this outbreak and its impact on our people and the business. And second, a COVID-19 Crisis Committee which is focused on ensuring these interventions are implemented as quickly and effectively as possible at each site. These groups are ensuring we act swiftly and learn from each other’s experiences.
Interventions are already in place to increase screening based on travel, symptoms of illness and those displaying high temperatures at our sites. This will ensure that people who may be ill are identified early, are provided the treatment they need as quickly as possible, and do not present a risk to others.
Although the World Health Organization (WHO) has characterized the spread of COVID-19 as a pandemic, it is important to note that:
In line with the spread of COVID-19 and our wish to contain it, AngloGold Ashanti has now introduced some protocols to be adopted across the company.
If you are exhibiting flu-like symptoms, have been diagnosed with the flu, have tested positive for the COVID-19 (Coronavirus), or have been exposed to someone who has tested positive, remain at home and consult with your doctor.
If you suspect that you have been exposed to someone with the virus, but are not showing symptoms, notify your supervisor immediately.
Until further notice, all employees and contractors working in any AGA workplace, must adhere to the following guidelines to protect the health and safety of our employees and contractors and to maintain business continuity:
We know that there are many questions. We encourage you to reach out to your supervisor, your clinic or local HR representative if you have any questions. We will continue to comply with our policies and the local regulations that govern our offices and sites.
In closing, I’d like to remind you that when we’re in these times of crisis it feels like they will never end. Of course, they inevitably do, but in the meantime, we must work together and remain vigilant.
Kind regards,
Kelvin Dushnisky Chief Executive Officer

Estimados colegas:
Sin dudas ya habrán leídos los numerosos titulares de noticias acerca del coronavirus, o COVID-19, y están al tanto de las medidas que han tomado muchos gobiernos de todo el mundo para controlar su propagación. Aunque entiendo la preocupación real que tienen muchos de ustedes por su salud y bienestar, así como el de sus seres queridos, este es un momento para pensar con calma y actuar de manera clara y decisiva, tanto individualmente como en conjunto, para mitigar el impacto de este brote y prevenir la propagación de la enfermedad.
Como empresa, ya hemos tomado medidas al respecto y nos guiamos por nuestra mayor prioridad, que es garantizar su salud y seguridad.
Hemos establecido dos grupos que trabajan con empeño para proteger a nuestra gente y a la empresa. En primer lugar, un equipo multidisciplinario de trabajo sobre el COVID-19 se está encargando de adoptar un enfoque estratégico para lidiar con este brote y su impacto en nuestra gente y en la empresa. Y en segundo lugar, se conformó un Comité de crisis por COVID-19 que se enfoca en asegurar que las mencionadas intervenciones se implementen de la manera más rápida y eficiente que sea posible en cada lugar. Estos equipos garantizan que actuemos rápidamente y que todos aprendamos de las experiencias del otro.
En muchos de nuestros sitios de trabajo, y próximamente en otros, ya se están implementando intervenciones para aumentar las revisiones a quienes hayan viajado, presenten síntomas de enfermedad o presenten temperaturas altas. Esto garantiza la identificación temprana de quienes puedan estar enfermos, que se les brinde el tratamiento que necesitan lo antes posible y que no representen un riesgo para otros.
Mientras abordemos este desafío, mantendremos un contacto regular que incluirá la orientación por parte de Recursos Humanos del Grupo y de sitios individuales según corresponda.
Aunque la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) ha declarado pandémica la propagación de COVID-19, es importante resaltar que:
Conforme a la propagación del COVID-19 y a nuestro deseo de contribuir a su contención, AngloGold Ashanti ha presentado algunos protocolos que deben ser adoptados por toda la empresa.
Si presenta síntomas parecidos a los de la gripe, se le diagnosticó gripe, ha dado resultado positivo por COVID-19 (coronavirus) o ha estado en contacto con alguien que haya dado resultado positivo, permanezca en su hogar y consulte a su médico.
Si sospecha que ha estado en contacto con alguien con el virus, pero no presenta síntomas, notifique a su supervisor de inmediato.
Se urge a quienes viajan a ser extremadamente cuidadosos y a tomar estas precauciones:
Hasta próximo aviso, todos los empleados y contratistas que trabajen en un lugar de trabajo de AGA deben adherir a los siguientes lineamientos para proteger la salud y seguridad de nuestros empleados y contratistas y para mantener la continuidad del negocio:
Implemente buena higiene en el lugar de trabajo:
Si usted ha dado resultado positivo por COVID-19:
Sabemos que hay muchas preguntas. Lo alentamos a comunicarse con su supervisor, su médico o con el representante de Recursos Humanos si tiene cualquier duda. Seguiremos cumpliendo con nuestras políticas y con las normativas locales que rigen nuestros sitios de trabajo y oficinas.
Para terminar, quisiera recordarle que cuando estamos en un momento de crisis parece que nunca se va a terminar. Por supuesto que inevitablemente se termina, pero mientras tanto debemos trabajar juntos y permanecer alertas.
Atentamente,
Kelvin Dushnisky

Ya se implementaron intervenciones en muchos de nuestros sitios (y pronto se hará lo mismo en los demás) para aumentar la detección a partir de viajes, síntomas de la enfermedad y quienes manifiesten altas temperaturas. De este modo, se garantizará la identificación oportuna de las personas que puedan estar enfermas para que reciban el tratamiento que necesiten lo antes posible y no representen un riesgo para los demás.
Pueden esperar de nosotros recibir comunicación periódica a medida que hacemos frente a este desafío, que incluirá la orientación de Recursos Humanos del Grupo y de los sitios individuales cuando corresponda.

Prezados colegas,
Sem dúvida vocês viram as muitas manchetes sobre o Coronavírus, ou COVID-19, e as medidas tomadas por muitos governos ao redor do mundo para gerenciar sua disseminação. Embora eu compreenda a real preocupação que muitos de vocês têm com a sua saúde e bem-estar, e os de seus entes queridos, este é um momento para ter calma e ações claras e decisivas (individualmente e conjuntas) para mitigar o impacto desse surto e impedir a proliferação da doença.
Como empresa, já tomamos medidas nesse sentido e somos guiados por nossa primeira prioridade, que é garantir sua saúde e segurança.
Estabelecemos dois grupos que estão trabalhando duro para proteger nosso pessoal e os negócios. Primeiro, uma força-tarefa multifuncional COVID-19 que lida com a abordagem estratégica para gerenciar esse surto e seu impacto sobre as pessoas e os negócios. E segundo, um Comitê de crise do COVID-19 que foca em garantir que essas intervenções sejam implementadas o mais rápida e eficazmente possível em cada local. Esses grupos garantem que agimos com rapidez e aprendamos com as experiências uns dos outros.
Já existem intervenções em muitos de nossos locais (e em breve ocorrerão nos outros) para aumentar a triagem com base nas viagens, nos sintomas de doenças e nos que apresentam altas temperaturas. Isso garantirá que as pessoas que estão doentes sejam identificadas precocemente, recebam o tratamento que precisam o mais rápido possível e não apresentem riscos para outras pessoas.
Você pode esperar uma comunicação regular de nossa parte ao enfrentarmos esse desafio, que incluirá orientações dos recursos humanos do grupo e de sites individuais, quando aplicável.
Embora a Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) tenha caracterizado a disseminação do COVID-19 como uma pandemia, é importante observar que:
De acordo com a disseminação do COVID-19 e nosso desejo de contribuir para a contenção, a AngloGold Ashanti agora introduziu alguns protocolos a serem adotados em toda a empresa.
Se você apresentar sintomas semelhantes aos da gripe, tiver sido diagnosticado com gripe, tiver testado positivo para o COVID-19 (Coronavírus) ou tiver sido exposto a alguém que tenha testado positivo, permaneça em casa e consulte o seu médico.
Se você suspeitar que foi exposto a alguém com o vírus, mas não está apresentando sintomas, notifique seu supervisor imediatamente.
Recomenda-se aos viajantes que tomem cuidado extra e sigam estas precauções:
Até novo aviso, todos os funcionários e contratados que trabalham em qualquer local de trabalho da AGA devem seguir as diretrizes a seguir para proteger a saúde e a segurança de nossos funcionários e contratados e manter a continuidade dos negócios:
Pratique uma boa higiene no local de trabalho:
Se você testou positivo com COVID-19:
Sabemos que existem muitas perguntas. Recomendamos que você entre em contato com seu supervisor, sua clínica ou seu representante local de RH se você tiver alguma dúvida. Continuaremos a cumprir nossas políticas e os regulamentos locais que governam nossos escritórios e instalações.
Para finalizar, gostaria de lembrá-lo de que, quando estamos em tempos de crise, parece que eles nunca chegarão ao fim. Obviamente, eles sempre chegam ao fim, mas, enquanto isso, precisamos trabalhar juntos e permanecer vigilantes.
Atenciosamente,

Collègues,
Vous aurez sans doute vu les nombreux gros titres sur le Coronavirus, ou COVID-19, ainsi que les mesures prises par de nombreux gouvernements dans le monde pour gérer sa propagation. Bien que je comprenne la véritable préoccupation que beaucoup d’entre vous ont pour votre santé et votre bien-être, et ceux de vos proches, nous devons faire preuve de calme et d’action claire et décisive --individuellement et collectivement--afin d’atténuer l’impact de cette épidemie et prévenir la propagation de la maladie.
En tant qu’entreprise, nous avons déjà pris des mesures à cet égard, et sommes guidés par notre première priorité, qui est d’assurer votre santé et votre sécurité.
Nous avons créé deux groupes qui travaillent d'arrache-pied pour protéger nos employés et notre entreprise. Premièrement, un groupe de travail interfonctionnel du COVID-19 qui traite de l’approche stratégique pour gérer cette épidémie et son impact sur nos employés et notre entreprise. Et deuxièmement, un Comité de crise du COVID-19 qui vise à s’assurer que ces interventions sont implémentées aussi rapidement et efficacement que possible dans chaque site. Ces groupes vont veiller à ce que nous agissions rapidement et tirions les enseignements de nos expériences mutuelles.
Des interventions sont déjà en place sur plusieurs de nos sites -- et le seront bientôt sur les autres -- pour accroître le dépistage en fonction des déplacements, des symptômes de la maladie et ceux affichant des températures élevées. Cela permettra d'identifier de bonne heure les personnes potentiellement malades, et s'assurer qu'elles reçoivent le traitement dont elles ont besoin le plus rapidement possible et qu'elles ne présentent pas de risque pour les autres.
Vous pouvez vous attendre à une communication régulière de notre part dans le cadre de la gestion de ce problème, ce qui inclura des conseils des Groupes des Ressources Humaines à partir des sites individuels, le cas échéant.
Bien que l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé (OMS) ait caractérisé la propagation du COVID-19 comme une pandémie, il est important de noter que:
En raison de la propagation du COVID-19 et de notre volonté de contribuer au confinement, Anglogold Ashanti a maintenant introduit certains protocoles à adopter dans l’ensemble des entreprises.
Si vous présentez des symptômes semblables à ceux de la grippe, si vous avez été diagnostiqué positif à la grippe, testé positif au COVID-19 (coronavirus), ou si vous avez été exposé à une personne qui a été testée positive, restez à la maison et consultez votre médecin.
Si vous suspectez avoir été exposé à quelqu’un avec le virus, mais ne présentant pas de symptômes, informez immédiatement votre superviseur.
Les voyageurs sont invités à faire preuve de prudence et à prendre les précautions suivantes:
Jusqu’à nouvel ordre, tous les employés et sous-traitants qui travaillent sur un lieu de travail AGA, doivent respecter les lignes directrices suivantes pour protéger la santé et la sécurité de nos employés et de nos sous-traitants et maintenir la continuité de nos activités:
Pratiquez une bonne hygiène sur le lieu de travail:
Si vous êtes testé positif au COVID-19:
Nous savons qu’il y a beaucoup de questions. Nous vous encourageons à communiquer avec votre superviseur, votre clinique ou votre représentant local des RH si vous avez des questions. Nous continuerons à nous conformer à nos politiques et nos règlements locaux qui régissent nos bureaux et nos sites.
En terminant, j’aimerais vous rappeler qu'en période de crise, nous avons parfois le sentiment que cela ne finira jamais. Heureusement, cela n'est pas le cas, mais entre-temps, nous devons travailler ensemble et demeurer vigilants.
Meilleures salutations,
Kelvin Dushnisky

Wenzangu,
Bila shaka mmeona vichwa vingi vya habari kuhusu virusi vya Korona, COVID-19 na mmeona hatua ambazo zimechukulia na serikali nyingi duniani kote kudhibiti kusambaa kwake. Huku ninapofahamu wasiwasi mkubwa ambao wengi wenu mnao juu ya afya na maslahi yenu na yale ya watu mnaowapenda, huu ni wakati wa kutulia na kuchukua hatua ya maamuzi dhahiri -- kibinafsi na kwa pamoja -- kupunguza athari ya mkurupuko huu na kuzuia kusambaa kwa ugonjwa.
Kama biashara, tayari tumechukua hatua kuhusu suala hili na tunaongozwa na kipaumbele chetu cha kwanza, ambacho ni kuhakikisha usalama na afya yako.
Tumeanzisha makundi mawili ambayo yanafanya kazi kwa bidii ili kulinda watu na biashara yetu. Kwanza, Kikosi cha Kazi cha COVID-19 ambacho kinashughulika na njia ya kimkakati ya kudhibiti mkurupuko huu na athari yake kwa watu na biashara yetu. Na pili, Kamati ya Hali ya Hatari ya COVID-19 ambayo inalenga kuhakikisha kuwa suluhusu hizi zinatekelezwa haraka na kwa ufanisi kadri iwezekanavyo kwa kila sehemu ya kazi. Makundi haya yanahakikisha kuwa tunachukua hatua kwa haraka na kujifunza kutokana na uzoefu wa kila mmoja wetu.
Tayari suluhu zimewekwa katika sehemu nyingi za kazi yetu -- na hivi karibuni tutafikia sehemu zingine -- kuongeza shughuli za uchunguzi kulingana na safari, dalili za ugonjwa na wale walio na halijoto la juu la mwili. Hii itahakikisha kuwa watu ambao wanaweza kuwa wagonjwa wanatambuliwa mapema, wanapewa matibabu wanayohitaji haraka iwezekanavyo na hawasababishi hatari kwa wengine.
Unaweza kutarajia kupata mawasiliano ya mara kwa mara kutoka kwetu tunapokabiliana na changamoto hii, ambayo yatakuwa ni pamoja na mwongozo kutoka kwa Rasilimali-Watu za Kundi na kutoka kwa sehemu mahususi panapohitajika.
Ingawaje Shirika la Afya Ulimwenguni (WHO) limeainisha kusambaa kwa COVID-19 kama maradhi yaliyoenea ulimwenguni kote ni muhimu kukumbuka kuwa:
Kulingana na kusambaa kwa COVID-19 na matamanio yetu ya kuchangia katika kudhitibi virusi, sasa AngloGold Ashanti imeanzisha baadhi ya itifaki ambazo zinapaswa kutumiwa katika kampuni.
Ikiwa una dalili zinazofanana na zile za mafua, umechunguzwa na kupatikana kuwa una mafua, umepimwa na kupatikana kuwa una COVID-19 (virusi vya Korona) au umetangamana na mtu aliye na virusi, salia nyumbani na uwasiliane na daktari wako.
Ikiwa unashuku kuwa umetangamana na mtu aliye na virusi, lakini hauonyeshi dalili, mwarifu msimamizi wako mara moja.
Wasafiri wanahimizwa kuwa makini zaidi na kufuata tahadhari hizi:
Wafanyakazi na wakandarasi wote wanaofanya kazi katika AGA, wanapaswa kufuata mwongozo ufuatao ili kulinda afya na usalama wa wafanyakazi na wakandarasi wetu na kudumisha kuendelea kwa kazi hadi ilani zaidi itakapotolewa:
Zingatia usafi katika mahali pa kazi:
Ikiwa umepimwa na kupatikana kuwa una COVID-19:
Tunafahamu kuwa kuna maswali mengi. Tunakuhimiza uwasiliane na msimamizi wako, kliniki au mwakilishi wako wa Rasilimali-Watu ikiwa una maswali yoyote. Tutaendelea kutii sera zetu na sheria za mahali tulipo zinazosimamia ofisi na sehemu zetu za kazi.
Kwa kutamatisha, ningependa kuwakumbusha kwamba tunapokuwa katika nyakati za hali ya hatari, huonekana kuwa hazitawahi kupita. Bila shaka, nyakati hizi hupita, lakini kwa sasa, ni lazima tufanye kazi kwa pamoja na tuwe waangalifu.
Shukrani za ukarimu,
Kelvin Dushnisky
Ofisa Mkuu Mtendaji

There is a great deal of fake news and misinformation circulating about COVID-19
We will be sending out information from the South African Government website, the World Health Organization (WHO) site, and other useful websites that will help us see past this false information.
Human Coronaviruses are common throughout the world. There are many different coronaviruses identified in animals but only a small number of these can cause disease in humans.
On 7 January 2020, ‘Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2’ (SARS-CoV-2) was confirmed as the causative agent of ‘Coronavirus Disease 2019’ or COVID-19. The majority of the case-patients initially identified were dealers and vendors at a seafood, poultry and live wildlife market in China. Since then, the virus has spread to more than 100 countries, including South Africa.
Currently, travellers to areas where there is ongoing sustained transmission of COVID-19 including Mainland China (all provinces), Hong Kong, Japan, Republic of Korea, Singapore, Vietnam, Taiwan, Italy and the Islamic Republic of Iran are at greatest risk of infection.
Furthermore, the elderly, individuals with co-morbidities and healthcare workers have been found to be at a higher risk of death.
While the first cases probably involved exposure to an animal source, the virus now seems to be spreading from person-to-person.
The spread of the disease is thought to happen mainly via respiratory droplets produced when an infected person coughs or sneezes, similar to how influenza and other respiratory pathogens spread. Thus far, the majority of cases have occurred in people with close physical contact to cases and healthcare workers caring for patients with COVID-19.
Source: Government of South Africa
https://sacoronavirus.co.za/information-about-the-virus-2/
Current symptoms reported for patients with COVID-19 have included mild to severe respiratory illness with cough, sore throat, shortness of breath or fever.
The complete clinical picture with regard to COVID-19 is still not fully clear. Reported illnesses have ranged from infected people with little to no symptoms to people being severely ill and dying.
Treatment is supportive (providing oxygen for patients with shortness of breath or treating a fever, for example). To date, there is no specific antiviral treatment available. Antibiotics do not treat viral infections. However, antibiotics may be required if a bacterial secondary infection develops.
