Civil society leaders have accused mining companies of hypocrisy.

CAPE TOWN - Civil society leaders have accused mining companies of hypocrisy as the industry reinforces its commitment to environmental, social and corporate governance to achieve social goals beyond the pursuit of profits.

A panelist during a conversation on the future of mining left jaws dropped when she accused mining bosses who formed part of the discussion of blatant hypocrisy. “Did anyone at this entire indaba mention the fact that a high court judgment recently said the air quality in Mpumalanga is a breach of our constitutional rights? No one mentioned that. So don’t tell me that you care about people and the environment in the same breath that you are talking about cutting red tape for the mining industry.”

This is true. Being an Environmental Manager at a big mine, experience victimization daily for enforcing compliance to env licenses etc. Env officials are generally highly qualified, but paid the pittance in comparison with peers in other sections. They are seen as a problem.
