INTRODUCTION
As reported in the 2011 Social and Labour Plan Report the company submitted its Vaal River Operations Social and Labour Plan (SLP), as outlined below on 27 August 2010. The delay in the submission was due to the fact that during 2010, the Mining Charter was in the process of being reviewed by the government and relevant stakeholders, and it was envisaged that this process would be concluded during the first half of the year. Unfortunately, this was not the case and the Amended Mining Charter was only gazetted in September 2010, some few weeks after the submission of the above-stated SLP. On 10 May 2011, the company received a letter from the DMR NW (North West Province) Regional Manager with respect to its application for “Farm Grootdraai” (ML 15/2000), directing it to reconsider some of the provisions of the above stated Social and Labour Plan. This precipitated a process of consultations with the NW DMR, unions and municipalities of Matlosana (operational area), Moqhaka (host communities) and OR Tambo (Labour sending area), aimed at reviewing the above-stated SLP in line with the DMR directive and agreement reached during the consultation process with all the stakeholders. This resulted in the Revised SLP as submitted to the DMR on 16 November 2011. The abovementioned consultations resulted in the company substantially increasing its financial provisions, taking into account the DMR’s directive and recommendations, in particular the recommendation that if “Farm Grootdraai” and Altona have to form part of the VR SLP, it would have to increase its financial provisions parallel to the above review of the SLP. The company has subsequent to the submission of the abovementioned Revised SLP, engaged with the DMR to get guidance on the SLP Implementation Plan. These resulted in the parties reaching the understanding that issues raised by the DMR subsequent to the submission of the abovementioned SLP, will be dealt with in the abovementioned Implementation Plan due for submission together with the 2011 SLP Report. On the 24 July 2012 the company again received another letter similar to the one it received on 10 May 2011. The company was of the view that the DMR was frustrating its efforts to implement its Social and Labour plan projects by continuously moving the goals posts and therefore escalated its grievances in this regard to the office of the Deputy Minister of Mineral resources. A meeting between the parties including the Director of Mineral Regulations was held at the office of the Deputy Minister on 21 August 2012 facilitated by the Head of Department at that office. The parties agreed on the way forward to finalising the Social and Labour Plan which included further consultations with the Matlosana Municipality on the new projects that would replace that the DMR NW office had rejected namely; the James Motlatsi Stadium, Hawkers Shelter and the upgrading of the Market Hall. To this end the company embarked on another process of consultations with the Matlosana Municipality which was concluded on 9 November 2012 when the parties agreed on the replacement projects namely the Swimming Pool in Tigane, The School Sports facilities in Tigane, the Sanitation project in Khuma and Kanana and the Township/ land development in Khuma. The company subsequently forwarded the signed agreement between itself and the Matlosana Municipality to the DMR .On the 5th December 2012 the DMR informed the company in writing that its Social and Labour Plan would be approved provisional to it submitting an updated Social and Labour Plan. The above stated DMR letter also gave permission to the company to proceed with the implementation of its Social and Labour Plan projects. The company submitted the revised VR SLP to the DMR offices on the 5 March 2013 and is awaiting final approval of its VR Operations SLP. The above stated prolonged process leading to the approval of the Social and Labour Plan has led to the delay in the execution of the company’s LED projects. However the company had through its Social and Institutional Fund and its Enterprise Development Fund continued to discharge its social responsibility by continuing to support financially and otherwise the NGOs and SMMEs in Matlosana, Moqhaka and Labour Sending Areas in particular, the OR Tambo District Municipality. Also, the company has, as reported in 2011, already put in place structures, plans, processes and mechanisms that would enable it to deliver all its committed projects from AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00

2010 beginning 2013 once approval was given to it by the DMR.. Now that the DMR has officially approved the company’s Social and Labour Plan, we are confident that all projects committed in the Social and Labour Plan would be delivered as contained in the Implementation Plan and Schedule as submitted to the DMR in the nd 2 quarter of 2013.For example, the Sonata Junior Primary School project at Libode in the Eastern Cape was successfully launched by the Ministers of Minerals and rd Basic Education on the 3 April 2013. The Vaal River Technical High School Laboratory and Computer Center have been completed are ready for launching in the 3 quarter of 2013. During the second quarter of 2013, the company held the Mandating and Implementation Committee meetings with the Matlosana and OR Tambo Municipalities to sign off on the SLP Projects Implementation Schedules. Community Briefing Sessions were held with local NGOs, SMME’s and NPOs in Matlosana and OR Tambo during the course of June 2013. The Future Forum meeting with all the recognised unions to brief them of the progress with regards to the SPL projects and programs was held on the 21 June 2013. In conclusion, much as the above stated consultation process delayed the implementation of the local economic development projects, it has had positive spin offs in the sense that it has fostered a relationship based on trust between the company, the DMR, Labour, NGO’s,, SMMEs, and the Municipalities which would enable the projects to be implemented smoothly as well as paving the way for the smooth SLP approval process into the future.

B. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The following are the salient points in this report as they relate to the company’s progress towards achieving its Mining Charter (MC) obligations in the quarter two of 2013 reporting period: 1.
Reporting – The company submitted its 2012 Annual Report to the DMR on the 28th March 2013.
2.
Ownership – The company has achieved 26.8% HDSA ownership as at the end of June 2013.
3.
Housing and Living Conditions – At the end of the reporting period, 90% of the Vaal River (VR) Operations residences were converted into single accommodation against the Mining Charter target of 75%, and 100% of the residences were also converted into family units against the Mining Charter target of 75% during the reporting period. With respect to home ownership the company and organised labour reached an agreement on the ownership scheme which is now in the process of being implemented. Finally, with respect to nutrition, the Chamber of Mines Research Organisation (COMRO) report was used as a guide in terms of the dietary requirements.
4.
Procurement and Enterprise Development – At the end of the reporting period, the VR Operations achieved 42% against the MC target of 30% for” Capital Goods”, 39% against the MC target of 60% for “Services” and 59% against the MC target of 40% for “Consumable Goods”. It should be noted that in the past reports the company reported the figures of the entire South Africa Region Procurement spend whilst beginning this year as per the directive of the DMR we are now reporting Vaal River and West Wits spend separately. The main challenge with respect to Services remains the misalignment between the mining charter requirement and the BBBEE Code of 25% which governs majority of our suppliers who are not obliged to use the MC ownership target as a sole measure of a company’s BEE status. As previously reported, this issue has been brought to the attention of the DMR for noting. Also, with respect to the Multinational Suppliers contribution to the social fund, the company still awaits the finalisation of the fund by the DMR.
5.
Employment Equity (EE) – The VR Operations achieved all the targets as set by the Mining Charter for the reporting period up to the end of June 2013. In the revised SLP the targets have also been set per business unit, as per the directive of the DMR. Much as we have met our targets in all the levels of management, senior management level especially with respect to core function (25.5% achieved against the target of 35%), remains a challenge and appropriate action plans have been put in place to assist in achieving the 2014 targets in this regard.
6.
Human Resources Development (HRD) – Expenditure as a percentage of the total annual payroll for the reporting period is 6.30% against the Mining Charter target of 4.5%. The company has also commissioned Technology initiative intended to develop solutions in deep level mining in order to eliminate safety, risks increase productivity, prolong its life of mine and continue to contribute positively to the socio economic development of its employees and host communities as well as national fiscus. The company has also introduced the Community Human Resource Development Programmes in the Matlosana, Moqhaka and Labour Sending Areas in particular OR Tambo District Municipality with the main objective of alleviating the challenge of youth unemployment.
7.
Mine Community Development – As per the 2011 report in this regard and as stated above, subsequent to the directives by the DRM, extensive consultations were undertaken with the host and labour sending municipalities to review and identify community development projects for the period ending 2014. The financial provision including for community human resources development programmes was substantially increased to make a meaningful impact in the socio-economic wellbeing of the communities in which we operate and in the labour sending areas. Although this resulted in the slowing down of delivery in this particular area, the
AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00
Page 8 of 128
stakeholders have put mechanisms in place beginning in 2012, to speed up the delivery of the above mentioned LED and Community Human Resource Development Programmes. As per the directives of the DMR not all ED projects should be financed as loans, especially those whose beneficiaries are likely to be broad based. In line with this approach the ED projects have been categorised into ‘Income Generating Projects’ financed by way of grants (financed from the LED fund), and ED projects financed by interest free loans (financed from the ED fund). The Mandating and Implementing Committees established in terms of the MOUs signed between the company and the Municipalities of Matlosana and OR Tambo are now functional and are used to speed up delivery of the community development projects in the company’s host and labour sending areas. th The Future Forum constitution was signed by all recognised Trade Unions in February 2012 and was launched on the 24 of August 2012. It is again noted that in the “DMR Mining Charter Report” template reference is been made to the “BBBEE codes hav(ing) a target of 1% NPAT”. In terms of the BBBEE codes the socio-economic element, community development projects are not only confined to LED projects as identified in the IDPs of municipalities but also includes other contributions to the community like community ABET, bursaries, internships, and portable skills. To this end the community development expenditure is inclusive of Community HRD contributions. 8.
9. 10.
Sustainable Development and Growth – With respect to Environment Management the company revised and resubmitted it’s EMP during the fourth quarter of 2011 following the DMR comments on the initial submissions made in 2009. The company also complied with the commitments in the tri-partite action plan on health and safety. Beneficiation - The company’s initiatives in this regards are outlined in the “Beneficiation” section of this report Definition of “employee” – In the engagements with the DMR, it was brought to the attention of the company that the MPRDA’s definition of an “employee” includes those of contractors. An Action Plan has been put in place to engage with the major contractors on how they will have to comply with the relevant pillars of the SLP and submit their reports to the company on an annual basis for inclusion in the company’s SLP Annual Reports to the DMR.

Ownership
In this section we address the Mining Charter requirements as detailed below. Mining Charter Requirement: In terms of Ownership the amended BROAD-BASED SOCIO-ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT CHARTER of the SOUTH AFRICAN MINING and MINERALS INDUSTRY states: Effective ownership is a requisite instrument to effect meaningful integration of HDSA into the mainstream economy. In order to achieve a substantial change in racial and gender disparities prevalent in ownership of mining assets, and thus pave the way for meaningful participation of HDSA for attainment of sustainable growth of the mining industry, stakeholders commit to: Achieve a minimum target of 26 percent ownership to enable meaningful economic participation of HDSA by 2014; The only off setting permissible under the ownership element is against the value of beneficiation, as provided for by Section 26 of the MPRDA, as elaborated in the mineral beneficiation strategy. The continuing consequences of all previous deals would be included in calculating such credits/offsets in terms of market share as measured by attributable units of production. The Mining Charter scorecard requirements are indicated below along with the AGA WW compliance to date.

The revised Mining Charter sets an Ownership Target of 15% HDSA Ownership by 2010 and 26% HDSA Ownership by 2014. Through a combination of ownership transactions with ARMgold, Bokamoso ESOP and Izingwe Holdings the company has achieved 26.8% HDSA ownership.

Page 18 of 128
Ownership & Joint Ventures and the Mining Charter: The “scorecard” which is designed to measure adherence to the mining charter asks the question regarding Ownership & Joint Ventures viz.: Has the mining company achieved HDSA participation in terms of ownership for equity or attributable units of production of 15% in HDSA hands within 5 years and 26% in 10 years? AGA South Africa Region’s Black Economic Empowerment Ownership Status: AngloGold Ashanti’s BEE ownership contribution is measured in respect of transactions with three BEE entities. Sale of assets to ARMgold Limited (ARM): Jan 1998 – Sale to ARM of Vaal Reefs No 1-7 shafts July 1998 – Sale to ARM of Freegold’s Western Holdings shafts 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7 and Welkom gold plant Jan 2002 – Sale of Free State assets (Bambanani, Joel, Matjhabeng, Tshepong, Jeanette shares, plus surface infrastructure) to ARM/Harmony joint venture. By direction of the then DME/DMR, the “credits” AGA is entitled to claim was calculated by the “units of production” provision of the Mining Charter based on AGA and attributable ARMgold production for the 12 months ended March 2004 – the last production data available at the time AGA applied for the conversion of its mining rights. ARMgold’s attributable production in respect of former AGA assets for that period was 848,602ozs. AGA production at its South African assets in the same 12 month period was 3,232,000ozs. AngloGold Ashanti’s overall HDSA participation in respect of ARMgold is therefore 20.8% (848,602ozs as a percentage of 3,232,000 + 848,602ozs). Employee Share Ownership Plan (ESOP) and Izingwe Holdings: When AngloGold Ashanti was awarded its new order mining rights in 2005, one condition was that it fulfills its undertaking to the DMR that it would introduce an ESOP and carry out a further BEE transaction to complete its ownership obligations in terms of the Mining Charter. That obligation was fulfilled after a period of consultation between AGA and, respectively, the unions representing the approximately 30,000 eligible members of the company’s SA workforce at that time and the leadership of Izingwe Holdings, a BEE company chaired by Sipho Pityana. The transactions were announced in October 2006, involving the transfer of 3 840 000 (25% of them free shares and the remainder E shares operating in a manner similar to share options) to an employee share trust, the Bokamoso ESOP Trust, and 1 400 000 E shares to Izingwe. The transactions were vendor-financed, and there is no possibility of any downside for BEE entities. The ESOP transaction comprised a transfer of 4,5% ownership in terms of the charter, and the Izingwe Holdings (Pty) Ltd transaction 1.5% this taking AGA’s total HDSA ownership credit to 26,8%. Between the December 2006 launch date and December 2012, a total of R387,453,443 flowed to members of the Bokamoso Employee Ownership Share Plan. Of this, R14,624,894 was paid in dividends, R316,545,637 as a consequence of the vesting of free and loan shares, and R56,282,912 due to the proceeds of a rights issue in 2009. AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00
Page 19 of 128
In the same period our BEE partner Izingwe Holdings received a total of R8,830,500 in dividend flows and R22,252,455 as a consequence of the rights issue. In addition, Izingwe received 39,052 AGA shares as a consequence of the November 2011 vesting date. It is unknown at what price Izingwe sold the shares through its own brokerage house. The share price at which the vesting took place was R358.50. Izingwe received R14,063,603 as a consequence of the November 2012 vesting. Due to international market conditions, the prevailing share price was “underwater” at the dates of the vesting of the first two tranches of E shares in November 2009 and 2010. In response to representations from the ESOP trustees (including union representatives) and Izingwe, AGA management took the view that, while not required in any way by regulation, the situation was compromising the spirit of the empowerment transactions. Management entered into a new phase of consultations with the unions and Izingwe. This led to a restructuring of the transactions in a manner that builds in a guarantee of value of R40 per share in respect of vesting E shares, and the reinstatement of lapsed E shares. Further value will flow to all participants over the remainder of the life of these transactions, which conclude in 2014.

SECTION 2. HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME Mining Charter Requirement: In terms of Human Resource Development the amended 2010 BROAD-BASED SOCIO-ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT CHARTER of the SOUTH AFRICAN MINING and MINERALS INDUSTRY states as follows: “The mining industry is knowledge based and thus hinges on human resource development, constituting an integral part of social transformation at workplace and sustainable growth. To achieve this objective, the mining industry must: Invest a percentage of annual payroll (as per relevant legislation) in essential skills development activities reflective of the demographics, but excluding the mandatory skills levy, including support for South African based research and development initiatives intended to develop solutions in exploration, mining, processing, technology efficiency (energy and water use in mining), beneficiation as well as environmental conservation and rehabilitation; as follows:
Target for 2010 = 3%; Target for 2011 = 3.5%; Target for 2012 = 4%; Target for 2013 = 4.5%; Target for 2014 = 5%”
The Mining Charter scorecard requirements are indicated below along with the AGA VR compliance to date.

The MPRDA requirements are: REGULATION 46 (b) (i) which states that: The contents of a social and labour plan must include the following: A human resources development programme which must include a skills development plan which identifies and reports on – (aa) the number and education levels of the employees which must be completed in the form of “Form Q” contained in Annexure II; and (bb) the number of vacancies that the mining operation has been unable to fill for a period longer than 12 months despite concerted effort to recruit suitable candidates which must be completed in the form of “Form R” contained in Annexure II. REGULATION 46 (b) (iii) which states: The contents of a social and labour plan must include a mentorship plan and its implementation in line with the skills development plan and the needs for the empowerment groups. REGULATION 46 (b) (v) which states: The contents of a social and labour plan must include a human resources development programme which must include the employment equity statistics which must be completed in the form of “Form S” contained in Annexure II and the mines plan to achieve the 10 per cent women participating in mining and 40 per cent historically disadvantaged South Africans (HDSA) participation in management within 5 years from the granting of the right or the conversion of the old order right. The Human Resources Development (HRD) Strategy of the South African Region supports the business strategy and objectives, as well as the South African legislative and regulatory framework that seeks to address the general skills shortage within the country, as well as ensuring equitable representation in the workplace. This plan outlines a variety of HRD initiatives in place in AGA. In this document we have indicated the plan for the Employees, Communities as well as the State Intervention to the Mineral Sector (SIMS) requirements. Note:
For a more detailed Core and Critical Skills Report refer to the EE Section of this report Form Q as required by the MPRDA is hereby annexured as Annexure 3 Form R as required by the MPRDA is hereby annexured as Annexure 4 Form S is contained in Annexure 2
HRD and the Mining Charter The “scorecard” which is designed to measure adherence to the mining charter asks he following questions regarding HRD viz.: Has the company offered every employee the opportunity to be functionally literate and numerate by the year 2005, and are employees being trained? Has the company implemented career paths for HDSA employees, including skills development plans? Has the company developed systems through which empowerment groups can be mentored? All the above is addressed in the following report.

2.1.1
ADULT BASIC EDUCATION AND TRAINING (ABET) - FOR EMPLOYEES (18.1):
ABET The company continues to provide Adult Basic Education and Training to employees of AGA and the communities in which we operate. During the second quarter of 2013, ABET programmes (Pre-ABET, ABET 1, 2, & 3), National Certificate: Introduction to the Mining and Minerals Sector (NQF level 1) at the equivalent of ABET level 4 and Foundation Learning Competence (FLC) were presented in the Vaal River Area. ABET education is provided on a Part-time basis at no cost to employees, albeit in their own time and during the past year participation in these programs in the Vaal River Area decreased despite the fact that participation was being encouraged through various structures such as Skills Development Committees and marketing. Measures have been put in place to address this i.e.: Literacy level reports have been designed and communicated to business units to make them aware of any literacy level gaps so that these can be addressed. Target marketing will be applied to attract individuals who do not have an ABET 3 or above. . ABET initiatives were structured into three processes, namely: Full-time ABET Part-time ABET and Community ABET
Foundational Learning Competence (FLC): The Quality Council for Trades and Occupations (QCTO) specifies that learners who wish to enter into occupational qualifications at NQF levels 2 – 4 must have sufficient foundational competence in communication and mathematical literacy (foundational learning competence - FLC) to cope with the occupational learning demands and to benefit from the learning process. The FLC mathematics in full time has been concluded and of the 18 students that were enrolled, 13 passed. The 5 learners who are not yet competent will get a second opportunity to write at the end of June. A workshop was held in June 2013 where key stakeholders such as the MQA, Chamber of Mines, IEB, employer’s representatives and organised labour discussed the challenges experienced during the FLC pilot and to determine a way forward.
National Career Orientated Qualifications (N1 & N2): These were introduced in 2010 in partnership with the Vuselela Technical College in the Vaal River Area. In 2013 year to date, there were 89 interventions for N1 and 109 interventions for N2. Employees (18.1): ABET targets from 2010 to 2013 The strategy of AngloGold Ashanti is to eliminate illiteracy through ABET. The table below reflects the target vs. actual for ABET classroom education during the second quarter of 2013. Enrolments for ABET education in the Vaal River Area is declining over time and measures are in place to address this, however, is it important to note the following factors with regards to the ABET targets: - Approximately 25% of the target population is aged 50 years and older and that also have an impact on the number of individuals interested to enroll AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00
Page 23 of 128
for ABET education. - ABET incentives not being forthcoming from the MQA after learners have successfully completed a level. We have addressed this issue with the MQA and anticipate improvement of this aspect during 2013 - Pre-ABET targets were determined by the outcome of the form Q which included a large number of employees with “No Schooling/Unknown”, which isn’t necessary the case due to employee qualification being updated continuously on the AGA system. - When the targets for the 5 year plan were determined, the targets were aspirational and set too high.
The following table shows the Employee ABET, 18.1 actual for 2013 YTD and 2013 target.

ABET Milestones Milestone 1: Implement FLC and discontinue NQF 1 full qualification and NQF 2 fundamentals. Progress: 1. FLC pilot for 2012 has been concluded. 17 students have enrolled for FLC during the second quarter of 2013. 2. Pilot studies and the directive from the MQA will indicate the future of NQF Level 1. Milestone 2: Improvement of literacy levels - 10% improvement year-on-year is planned. Progress: The Vaal River Literacy Level reveals that 71% AGA employees and 49% Contractors have ABET 3 or above. 9% of the AGA employees and 36% of the Contractors have either No Schooling or Unknown qualifications. The AGA Literacy Levels for 33405 employees including AGA employees and Contractors shows that in total 65% of all employees have ABET 3 and above and 14% of employees have either No Schooling or Unknown qualifications on the HURIS system. Milestone 3: Improvement of pass rates - 2% year-on-year improvement. The 2013 YTD, 18.1 ABET pass rate for ABET is 66% of which VR’s pass rate is 57%. The current pass rate can’t be measured against 2012 as results could not be concluded in 2012 due to the unrest situation in the mining industry. Progress: Strategies implemented to keep improving the pass rate: 1. Increased management involvement from the business units at the Part-time centres to motivate learners through regular centre visits. 2. Benchmarking against other mining houses and liaising with them to standardise and enhance ABET in the mining industry. 3. New learning material was implemented in 2012. 4. Facilitator development in the form of on-going coaching. Milestone 4: Reduction of drop-out rate - 2% year-on-year reduction. The 2013 YTD, 18.1 ABET drop-out rate for ABET is 1.6% of which VR’s drop-out rate is 0.9%. The current dropout rate can’t be measured against 2012 as results could not be concluded in 2012 due to the unrest situation in the mining industry. Progress: Using Educos as a database has assisted in giving a true drop-out rate as this database makes provision for reporting on modular as can be seen in the tables below. Due to this implementation, the true drop-out rate has dropped significantly.

Milestone 5: Phasing out of RPL, except for placement purposes, all qualifications have been confirmed. Progress: A new accurate literacy level report is available and business units are informed of specific literacy level gaps that they need to address, progress will be monitored. Milestone 6: External standard for ABET examinations – ensure that standard is competitive outside of the mining industry. Progress: ABET standard has been measured and areas of improvement have been identified and are being addressed. New ABET learning material was piloted during 2011 and was implemented during Q1 in 2012. External examination for ABET is on the cards as from the 2013/2014 financial year of the MQA as per their directive. Milestone 7 Implement Adult Basic Education Interventions i.e. Computer Skills & Life Skills. Progress: A resource centre has been established at Kopanang and has been equipped with 10 desk top computers. 6 learners have already done the Computer Skills training and 13 learners have gone through the Life Skills training. These are continuous interventions and more learners will go through both interventions during 2013.

ALTERNATIVE SKILLS TO MINING (ENGINEERING PORTABLE SKILLS) - FOR EMPLOYEES (18.1):
AGA provides voluntary skills training programmes to AGA Employees and community members with skills which are valuable outside of the mining industry through the Engineering Training Centre. The ratio of beneficiaries is 60% employees and 40% community. Portable Skills training helps employees and community members to attain skills (such as, among others bricklaying and basic welding) that are not mining industry specific. Upon completion of the training, learners are provided with a certificate that may enhance their chances of securing employment in other industries. The employees as well as members of the community are trained in portable skills such as basic plumbing, basic computer, basic house wiring, basic bricklaying and basic welding. Training is available during and after hours for volunteers. Employees and Community members will be entitled to a once off course at no cost to the participant. During 2013 YTD, portable skills were provided to 43 employees of whom 35 were HDSA. Recruiting Indians, Coloureds and White females poses a challenge in terms of this intervention as the actual is a reflection of the company’s demographics that are being addressed though affirmative action measures.

INTERNSHIPS – FOR EMPLOYEES (18.1):
Internships - Management Trainees (18.1) The Management Trainee Programme (of approximately three years in duration) gives graduates and diplomats the skills needed for middle management positions. Incumbents are assisted to obtain professional accreditation where appropriate. MT’s are appointed in critical skill areas. After completion of their studies, most bursars enter into the employ of AngloGold Ashanti as MTs. However, the programme is also extended to suitably qualified employees and external applicants. The purpose of the Management Trainee Programme is to prepare trainees to fulfill middle management roles upon completion of the programme.

The actual exceeds the target as MT’s are replaced as soon as any of them become eligible for placement and in mining more MT’s were appointed to mitigate the Mine Overseers age profile which was found to be higher than expected as well as high turnover at Section Manager level.

LEARNERSHIP – FOR EMPLOYEES (18.1):
Miners and Artisans are engaged in learnerships, of approximately 1,5 to 2 years duration, which are programmes registered with the Mining Qualifications Authority and the Department of Labour, allowing contracted learners to gain the skills needed for artisan or supervisory positions. During 2013 YTD, 151 employees benefitted from this initiative which generously exceeds the target of 92. This over achievement can be attributed to engineering learners who have completed the level 2 qualification (section artisans) accessing the level 3/4 qualification afterhours i.e. life-long learning. It shows that accessibility of programmes is paramount to the development of employees who wants to succeed in their careers by showing interest and dedication. The over achievement in learner miners can be ascribed to the roll-over from 2012 because of the strikes in the mining industry.

MENTORSHIP PLAN – FOR EMPLOYEES (18.1):
Mentorship in the SA Region takes place against the backdrop of the Manager once Removed (MoR) contact sessions, which take place twice a year. During these sessions, subordinates have an opportunity to raise challenges they may be experiencing and can be coached and guided by their MoR. This system has been implemented for D-Band level employees and will be extended to lower levels in due course. During 2013 YTD, 134 (MoR & SoR) sessions were conducted which is a reflection of the current employment profile of the company. Affirmative Action measures will be applied to ensure that the company profile with time reflects the demographics of the economically active population on all levels as outlined in the company’s employment equity plan. The purpose of this process is to ensure that every individual in the organization is mentored by their manager two levels up.

The system is based on the three tier managerial accountability structure of manager once removed (MoR), manager, and subordinate once removed (SoR), where the manager once removed is accountable for the mentoring and career development of the subordinate once removed. In terms of this every individual will be mentored by the manager two levels up i.e.:

Simunye Team Training
Team Training for lower level employees have been implemented known as Simunye Team Training. The Simunye Team Training Coordinators and Facilitators have been trained by an Industrial Psychologist to be able to identify possible talent of individuals. The names of the individuals that have been identified are forwarded to the human resources and training departments on the various business units for inclusion in the formal talent pool process. This ensures direct input into the Workplace Skills Plan when possible talent is confirmed during the formal talent pool process, with resultant development plans. A total of 833 employees have attended the Simunye training during 2013, YTD in the Vaal River Area. During this process a total of 100 individuals have been identified for the talent pool.

Further to this; a process is being explored to put individual development plans in place for all lower level employees by means of psychometric assessments to determine potential and specific developmental needs. A talent pool development system is being developed as one of the subsystems of the System for People (SP) in AGA, enabling all employees with the opportunity to develop to their full potential to meet current and future business needs with the objectives being:
Match individuals to appropriate roles; Identify employee and companywide development needs; and Support employees in their aspiration to develop to full potential.

MINING SKILLS - FOR COMMUNITY (18.2):
Community members are trained as stope and development team members at the Satellite Training Centres. This strategy is intended to increase the pool of capable people in local communities available for recruitment while reducing the time spent on recruitment and training during the engagement process. Names of the candidates are registered and forwarded to TEBA. After training the individuals have gained knowledge and some practical experience as a capable candidate that is on route towards full competency in the skill trained. During 2013 YTD, 66 community members benefitted from this initiative, recruiting particularly Indians is challenging and intensified marketing will be applied in addressed to close the gap.

Engineering skills training is being provided to community members to obtain formal qualifications, which they will be able to apply within the mining sector. The learners will acquire skills and knowledge to the level where they have been found capable to perform the work. During 2013 YTD, 9 community members have benefitted from the initiative. The plan was to train 3 learners but due to the shortage of riggers and instrumentation mechanicals at the business units, we increased the number to cater for the shortage of artisans.

COMMUNITY BURSARIES:
The company commits to provide open bursaries to community members admitted for full-time degree or diploma studies at approved tertiary institutions, with preference given to learners in the local operational areas. Individuals will not be guaranteed employment but the bursary does not carry any obligation. The initiative was marketed within communities through local newspapers and through internal communication channels. During 2013 YTD, 16 community members were awarded bursaries for studies related to core skills and 14 for non-core fields of study in the Vaal River Area. In total the plan is to provide bursaries to 30 community members in the VR area and during 2013 YTD, 30 were awarded.

Portable Engineering Skills training will be provided to the youth who may include those unemployed within close proximity of the AGA operations. The Training Centre will consider the youth needs and the needs of the communities in host areas in order to determine appropriate courses. The youth and members of the community will be entitled to a once of course free of charge to the participant. During 2013 YTD, 137 community members benefited from this initiative, recruiting Indians for this initiative have proven challenging and intensified marketing will be applied in an attempt to address these gaps. The target was exceeded as the company accommodated additional learners as request by the Matlosana Mandating Committee. Attracting White, Coloured and Indian females and Indian males for this intervention remains a challenge and during 2013 we will partner with the Matlosana Municipality to source other groupings like Indians, Coloureds and Whites.

COMMUNITY TRAINING FOR ENROLLED NURSING AUXILIARIES:
The company endeavors to train an additional 20 Enrolled Nursing Auxiliaries (ENA’s) in the Vaal River Operations per annum. The ENA course is a one year course delivering ENA’s on NQF level 4. An ENA’s responsibilities include a number of general, elementary nursing duties such as taking vital signs (observations), bathing patients, caring at the bedside, assisting with other activities of daily living, such as feeding patients unable to help themselves and assisting senior nurses and doctors in hospitals and clinics. This will be done in accordance with regulations as set out by the South African Nursing Council (SANC). The SAQA Act, 1995, accredits SANC as an ETQA in order to enforce quality assurance of Nursing Education in South Africa. Prospective candidates will have to meet the entry level requirements as prescribed by SANC and the Goldfields Nursing College. The ENA course is a one year full time course and after successful completion of the course the candidate is registered as an Enrolled Nursing Auxiliary.

EMPLOYMENT EQUITY PLAN
The company has put in place measures to respond to the requirements as outlined in both the Mining Charters (2002 and as amended in 2010) as well as in the MPRDA regulations. These have been aligned with the company’s business requirements so as to be sustainable into the future. The following is an outline of the above stated Mining Charter and MPRDA Regulations requirements: a) Mining Charter Requirement: The original Mining Charter scorecard which was designed to measure compliance requires the company to put in place measures to answer the following questions: Has the company published its employment equity plan, and reported on its annual progress in meeting that plan? Has the company published a plan to achieve a target for HDSA participation in management of 40% within five years, and is implementing this plan? Has the company identified a talent pool and is it fast tracking it? The 2010 BROAD-BASED SOCIO-ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT CHARTER of the SOUTH AFRICAN MINING and MINERALS INDUSTRY provides as follows with regards to Employment Equity: “Workplace diversity and equitable representation at all levels are catalysts for social cohesion, transformation and competitiveness of the mining industry. In order to create a conducive environment to ensure diversity as well as participation of HDSA at all decision-making positions and core occupational categories in the mining industry, every mining company must achieve a minimum of 40% HDSA demographic representation at:
Executive Management (Board) level by 2014; Senior management (EXCO) level by 2014; Core and Critical skills by 2014; Middle management level by 2014; Junior management level by 2014; and
In addition, mining companies must identify and fast-track their existing talent pools to ensure high level operational exposure in terms of career path programmes. The reporting period for all of the above-mentioned targets is March of the following year. For the purpose of reporting against the Mining Charter targets at the end of the reporting periods, the following definitions apply: “Executive Management (Board)” shall be defined as follows: “Executive Management” shall mean “Top Management” in line with the Employment Equity Act reporting requirements and is based at the Corporate Office, save for the South Africa Region (SAR) Executive Vice President, who is based at the Potchefstroom Regional Office; and “Board” shall mean the AGA Board in terms of the company’s Articles of Association. The Board comprises South African and non- South African based members and will be so reported. (It should be noted that Top Management refers to the South African based managers reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer and who are part of the company’s Executive Committee, i.e. the key decision makers of the company). “Senior Management (EXCO)” shall be defined as follows: “Senior Management” “shall mean employees who are at Paterson Grade E- Band and reported as “Senior Management” in line with the Employment Equity Act reporting requirements; and” Exco” shall mean the SAR Exco comprising the SAR Executive Vice President and his direct reports based at the SAR Regional Office in Potchefstroom. AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00
Page 48 of 128
Middle Management is stated as “Professionally Qualified” in line with the Employment Equity Act reporting requirements. Core and Critical Skills are defined as all occupations within the Mining, Engineering, MRM and Metallurgy disciplines. Corporate Office, while based in Johannesburg is a contributor to the SAR Operations, i.e., Vaal River and Vaal River Operations’ Talent Pool and the reports will reflect scenarios whereby it is included as well as excluded. (as per the guidance of the DMR). “The Vaal River operation” comprises the following business units: Kopanang, Moab Khotsong, Great Noligwa, Vaal River Metallurgy, Vaal River AGA Health, Vaal River SA Regional Services, the South Africa Regional Office in Potchefstroom and the Vaal River Corporate Office portion which is proportionately divided between the Vaal River and West Wits operations, the newly acquired Mine Waste Solutions based in Stilfontein in the North West. The Vaal River HDSA targets are also aligned to the company’s DoL 5 Year Employment Equity Plan leading to 2014 targets.

The following constitutes the company’s approach to the above mentioned questions.
AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00
Page 49 of 128
The company submitted its five year Employment Equity (EE) Plan to the Department of Labour (DoL) in 2010 for the period August 2009-July 2014. This plan was used to develop the EE Plan in compliance with the MC requirements. The company is also required to report to the DoL on an annual basis, as well as to the DMR. The DoL EE reports are also posted on the company’s website on an annual basis. In terms of the Skills Development Act, the company submits its Annual Training report (ATR) th and the Workplace Skills Plan (WSP) on the 30 of June of each year. The Workplace Skills Plan outlines the process of identifying the talent pool and fast-tracking the HDSAs in line with the target as set in the EE plan. In developing the EE Plan the WSP and the ATR, the company embarks on consultations with the recognised trade unions as required by the EE and Skills Development Act. In light of the above, a process is in place to establish an additional forum ( Bi-Regional Employment Equity Steering Committee) to develop , implement and create awareness, to oversee the compliance obligations with regard to employment equity, to align stakeholders and develop a shared understanding and consensus concerning employment equity in the company, in alignment with the broader SP ( System for People) and BPF (Business Process Framework) transformation and change initiatives, collectively known as ONE , and to monitor employment equity targets , plans and progress. In addition, there are two monitoring structures, the SAR Management Committee and the AGA Board’s the Social, Ethics and Transformation Committee (Board Committee) whose terms of reference includes the company’s performance with respect to the Mining Charter. These two Committees meet (separately) once every quarter with the Board Committee reporting progress made in the area of Transformation and Human Resources Development to the Board on a quarterly basis. AngloGold Ashanti – Vaal River continuously engages in the following processes in an aim to address employment equity transformation challenges: Continuous Gap analysis Special effort in the appointment of Senior Management Enhancement of the Talent Pipeline aided by Mentorship and coaching Additional development of skill through bursary scheme Benchmarking of competitive remuneration for key skills Role description and accountabilities In implementing the five years EE Plan, the following initiatives have been put in place during the period leading to 2014; The recruitment, selection and appointment strategy will continue to apply a 60/40 short listing split in favour of HDSAs to increase the chances of HDSA appointments and enhance the achievement of EE targets; Training and Development initiatives will be intensified through its management development programmes and other interventions with the purpose of strengthening HDSA representation in the talent pool; Bursary Schemes and Development Programmes will strengthen the demographical representation in the long term, leading to 2014 targets. The Bursary take into account the EAP in order to promote the development and progression of the HDSA in line with the EE targets as outlined in this Plan; Organised Labour engagement – targets contained in the EE Plan will be continuously monitored and reported on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis in consultation with organised labour. Targets contained in the EE Plan will be continuously monitored and reported on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis.

Core and Critical Skills
The targets as set in the Amended Mining Charter for Core and Critical skills are as follows: 15% by end of 2010 20% by end 2011 30% by end 2012 35% by end 2013; and 40% by end 2014. For the purpose of this submission, core and critical skills are defined as occupations within the Mining, Engineering, MRM and Metallurgy disciplines. The company’s skills development and employment equity strategies are aimed at achieving a demographically representative workforce. To this end, the company’s strategy in this regard is guided by the provisions of the Skills Development and Employment Equity Acts in terms of both planning and reporting, including with respect to “Core and Critical skills”. Through the company’s participation and collaboration with (i) the Mining Qualification Authority, (ii) compliance with its obligations pertaining to the Workplace Skills Plan and the Annual Training Report, (iii) conducting of skills audits (iv) initiatives to identify scarce and critical skills (through participation in the Sector Skills Plan and Scarce Skills initiatives) intensive attempts are made to improve the HDSA representation in all core and critical skills occupations which is still lagging due to the skills challenges faced by the industry in this respect. The human resources development interventions to address the abovementioned challenge include a variety of initiatives such as (i) Management Trainee Programmes, (ii) Bursary Schemes, (iii) Trainee Programmes, and Learnerships which is contained in the HRD section of this SLP Report. In reporting the identified hard to fill vacancies as we have reported on our Workplace Skills Plan submitted to the Mining Qualifications Authority (MQA), Form R in the annexures depicts critical and scarce skills for the period ending 2013.

Upgrading of residences into single room accommodation
The following has been agreed to, in the various consultation forums, as the strategic basis for residence upgrading:
Increased levels of privacy are pursued through the redevelopment of communal accommodation units into private rooms. Redevelopment work started in 2005. At the end of the June 2013 reporting period, 4188 single rooms were developed to a cost of R122.74 million. The revised plan to convert communal rooms into private rooms is scheduled to be completed by 2014 in order to comply with the Mining Charter. AngloGold Ashanti developed 108 single rooms in Kopanang Residence, 154 single rooms at Itireleng Residence and 128 single rooms at Noligwa Residence at the end of June 2013.
The following table shows the planned and actual Privacy and Upgrading projects undertaken in 2013: Table 3.6.1.

Note: The rooms completed were less than the planned number due to the unprotected strike action and the late tender adjudication process. To date the number of rooms completed at Koponang Residence is 1332 at the end of June 2013. At Noligwa Residence a total of 2113 private rooms have been completed at the end of June 2013 and a further 744 private rooms completed at Itireleng Residence. The above constitutes an achievement of 90% against the 2013 75% MC target. To ensure that adequate female ablutions and change house facilities are available, the company has established female change houses at Kopanang and Noligwa residences. Kopanang female change house has the capacity to accommodate 300 females while Noligwa residence female change house can accommodate 450 females.

Nutrition
In this section we address: REGULATION 46 (v) of the MPRDA which requires that the contents of a social and labour plan must include measures to address the nutrition of the mine employees. AngloGold Ashanti has for several years been active in this field and the current status is 18 000 kilojoules per person per day which exceeds the Chamber of Mines benchmark of 13 000 kilojoules per person per day. The implementation of a new menu is being introduced together with kitchen access control measures. Benchmarking and internal and external reviews are conducted on a scheduled basis. The external specialist / consultant contracted to do this is Ms E Bredenhann in conjunction with the company‘s internal dietician Measures to address Nutrition at Residences: Background: A dietary analysis of the current menu indicates that it adequately caters for the energy and nutritional requirements of workers including underground workers performing moderate to hard work. Criteria used is the COMRO (Chamber of Mines Research Organisation) reference report no 11/91 to establish the energy requirements of underground workers as well as other international recognized measures such as the DRI (Daily Recommended Intake) and the Harris Benedict equation. The table below shows the kJ intake for work load category. Table 3.6.4.1 : KJ intake Moderate Work

Diet plan and number of meals: The diet plan refers to the list of food groups incorporated in each meal as opposed to a menu which is a list of specific dishes served at each meal. In order to ensure that balanced meals are served, the numbers of meals, as well as the food groups to be served at each meal are taken into consideration. Traditionally only a pre-shift or a breakfast and a post shift or main meal was served in the Residences, but now a third meal is also served. A mid-shift supplement is also available to all underground workers (Morvite / Go Ahead Cereal). Food and nutritional evaluation: Consumption and Participation per person is measured. This procedure is maintained by a registered dietician.

SECTION 4: PROCUREMENT Mining Charter Requirement: In terms of Procurement and Enterprise Development the amended 2010 BROAD-BASED SOCIO-ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT CHARTER of the SOUTH AFRICAN MINING AND MINERALS INDUSTRY states as follows: “Local procurement is attributable to competitiveness and transformation, captures economic value, presents opportunities to expand economic growth that allows for creation of decent jobs and widens scope for market access of South African capital goods and services. In order to achieve this, the mining industry must procure services of BEE entities in accordance with the following criteria:
Procure a minimum of 40% of capital goods from BEE entities by 2014; Ensure that multinational suppliers of capital goods annually contribute a minimum of 0.5% of annual income generated from local mining companies towards socioeconomic development of local communities into a social development fund from 2010; Procure 70% of services and 50% of consumer goods from BEE entities by 2014.

Has the mining company given HDSA’s preferred supplier status? Has the mining company identified current level of procurement from HDSA companies in terms of capital goods, consumables and services? Has the mining company indicated a commitment to a progression of procurement from HDSA companies over a three to five-year time frame in terms of capital goods, consumables and services and to what extent has the commitment been implemented?
4.1.1
AGA Corporate against the Mining Charter
The company has since 2005 put a plan in place to achieve the above stated requirements of the Mining Charter and has identified levels of procurement from HDSA companies in line with the targets set for capital goods, consumables and services and keeps track of this. The procurement spend with BEE Entities has grown positively over the past eight years as depicted in the graphs above.

Progress and Status based on the Mining Charter as at end of May 2013

a) Total SAR Spend Base Significant progress has been made over the last five years as depicted in the table below and the trend is continuing with the introduction of the revised Mining Charter during September 2010. The following table shows the growth in spend profile from HDSA companies for between the period 2010 and May 2013 in the SA Region:
Table 4.2: Mining Charter Compliance Progress as at the end of May 2013
The table above shows that as at end of May 2013, the company achieved the Mining Charter targets with respect to BEE Capital spend and consumable spend at 37% against the target of 30% and 55% against the target of 40%, respectively. With regards to Services spend, AGA achieved 46%, a 14% below target of 60%. This is due to the precarious situation the mining companies find themselves in as most of the suppliers of services are regulated by the BBBEE Codes and not by the Mining Charter. In terms of the above mentioned codes unlike the Mining Charter, a BEE company is not required to have a minimum of 25% + 1 ownership status. In addition to this, such companies are not solely dependent on the mining industry for their existence which makes it difficult for mining companies to enforce compliance as per the Mining Charter. The implication of this is that it would be extremely difficult to achieve the 70% target set for services by 2014. We have pointed out this predicament to the DMR during our engagements including at the annual audits sessions. Multi Nationals are being addressed as an industry collective with the Chamber of Mines and the Department of Minerals Resources.

b) Vaal River Region: Local Supplier Base The company continues to seek and acquire HDSA suppliers that can supply products required by our business units and also encourages our traditional suppliers to embark on a transformation process to ensure compliance with BEE requirements. AGA has spent R467.6m with qualifying BEE suppliers with a minimum of 25% Black ownership status, achieving 52% towards the 2014 targets, as at the end of May 2013.

Linking Procurement with Enterprise Development
As outlined in the above stated revised SLP, AGA Procurement Department is working in conjunction with AGA Enterprise Development to ensure that qualifying beneficiaries of the Enterprise Development programme are considered and accorded opportunities to participate in the AngloGold Ashanti supply chain and beyond. AGA established the SMME development programme in 1998 aimed at assisting emerging entrepreneurs and start-ups to enter the formal economy but with limited success. Following extensive consultations and strategic thinking an Enterprise Development Fund based on a R10m pa budgeted from 2012 to 2014 per operational / host community resulted in an total commitment of R 90m. All proposed projects are subject to an initial social impact criteria and business viability test and if it meets the requirements then it would migrate to feasibility, funding approval and implementation phases. SMMEs is also planned to be established and supported via Enterpise Development Centers and will be linked to the AGA procurement opportunities and with other companies as well. The Enterprise Development Center , is detailed above in the LED section 3.3 of this SLP. As an interim measure pending the establishment of the Enterprise Development Centers, the company has assigned dedicated personnel that assist aspirant entrepreneurs develop business plans and access funding to establish their businesses. The support to entrepreneurs continues until such time that the entrepreneur no longer requires such support. Focused interventions are put in place to ensure that skills are transferred rapidly to the entrepreneurs. The value chain of AGA enterprise development is depicted in the diagram below. Diagram : AGA Enterprise Development
Opportunity Search
Feasibility
Funding / Creation
Incubation & Support
Enterprise Improvement
Opportunity search entails meetings with aspirant entrepreneurs who approach AGA through networking with the relevant stakeholders such as the local councils, business chambers, community briefing sessions and on an individual basis. Such projects will be subject to an initial social impact criteria and business viability test and if they meet the requirements they would migrate to feasibility stage. The feasibility stage entails formulation of business plans and presentation of these plans to the Fund for finance assistance. Once approved the entrepreneur is assisted to register the business and comply with the requisite regulations for establishing his/her business. The entrepreneur is further assisted to source the right equipment, stock, and people and to find suitable premises to run the business from (also see “commercial leases”). During the incubation and support stage the entrepreneur is exposed to various interventions to ensure that the business becomes operational / implemented as per the business plan. Enterprise improvement is the last stage with focused interventions to help the business grow and become fully sustainable. Enterprise improvement also entails assisting entrepreneurs to secure business contracts inside and outside AGA for a sustainable business.

SECTION 5. MEASURES TO AMELIORATE THE IMPACT OF DOWNSCALING & RETRENCHMENT In this section we address: REGULATION 46(d) of the MPRDA requires that the contents of a social and labour plan must include: A process pertaining to management of downscaling and retrenchment which must includei. The establishment of the future forum; ii. Mechanisms to save jobs and avoid job losses and a decline in employment; iii. Mechanisms to provide alternative solutions and procedures for creating job security where job losses cannot be avoided; and iv. Mechanisms to ameliorate the social and economic impact on individuals, regions and economies where retrenchment or closure of the mine is certain.
5.1
Background
AngloGold Ashanti is committed to manage downscaling and retrenchments at its Business Units within the purview of the principles of the Social Plan requirements of the Minerals and Petroleum Resources Development Act, 2002 (Act 28 of 2002), the Charter for the Socio – Economic Development of the Mining Industry of South Africa and consistent with applicable labour legislation. The approach to managing downscaling and retrenchments takes cognizance of the tripartite relationship between government, the company and organized labour in proactively devising strategies to deal with the decline and closure of operations. The approach to managing downscaling and retrenchments is based on the following: The establishment of a Future Forum; Steps that may be undertaken to avoid job losses; Initiatives to address instances where job losses cannot be avoided and Steps to ameliorate the impact job losses may have on employees, and the assistance provided to retrenched employees. During the first half of 2013 AngloGold Ashanti’s South Africa Region continued with all operations in the Vaal River without downscaling of employment, in spite of the negative effect of the unprotected strike in the last quarter of 2012 that lasted for at least four weeks, and other debilitating factors such as rising costs, lowering grades and adverse economic conditions which impacted on the business. Establishment of a Future Forum Following the establishment of the Future Forum in terms of the MPRDA during 2012, the functioning of the Future Forum further gained momentum. The Future Forum in the Vaal River convened on 15 March 2013.
AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00
Page 94 of 128
5.2
Mechanisms to save jobs and avoid job losses, as well as a decline in employment
There is an understanding amongst role-players in the gold industry that the future sustainability of the industry depends on a variety of steps and initiatives to address the continuing fall in production. In this regard a framework agreement to co design arrangements at the effective utilisation of mining assets was signed to address, the continuing fall in production. It must be borne in mind that all unions are involved in this process. The company has also adopted a community and socio economic development strategy with an economic stream that seeks to create jobs, develop entrepreneurs and create employment opportunities for employees and communities outside of mining. The Future Forum in the Vaal River, plays an important role in pro actively addressing issues of job security, employment and alternative solutions when job losses are unavoidable. The future forum which consists of management, organised labour, municipalities and other relevant stakeholders are enjoined in terms of the forums constitution to: “Explore solutions and procedures for creating job security to sustain and improve the life of employees and their dependents in the event where job losses and retrenchment is unavoidable, and thereby ameliorating the social and economic impact on individuals, regions and economies where retrenchments are certain, and Enhancing effective communication and transparency between management, employees and organized labour in the furtherance of the Future Forum; and ensuring compliance with the requirements of the Mining Charter as well as the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act and its Regulations in relation to the Future Forum.”
5.3
Downscaling and Retrenchments
Notwithstanding the unfavorable conditions as a result of amongst others the lowering gold price; declining grades and the rising costs in the SA operations; no employer initiated retrenchments in terms of s189 of the Labour Relations Act occurred during the first half of 2013. Given the current planning and budget cycle compounded by a low gold price, low outputs and prevailing economic conditions, the second half of 2013 will be approached with this in mind.
5.3.1
Section 189 of the Labour Relations Act, 66 of 1995 (LRA)
The company did not dismiss any employees due to employer initiated operational reasons during the first half of 2013.
5.3.2
Section 52 of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act, 2002 (MPDRA)
There was no need to invoke sec. 52 (1) of the Mineral, Petroleum Resources Act, 2002, as the company did not contemplate retrenchments during the first half of 2013.
5.3.3
Measures undertaken to ameliorate the impact on Downscaling and Retrenchment
The company is committed to manage downscaling and retrenchments in a manner that subscribes to fair labour practice as required by the applicable legislation, and in terms of company policy. During the first half of 2013, company forced retrenchments, as envisaged by sec. 189 of the LRA and sec. 52(1) (a) and (b) of the MPDRA were avoided by continuing with the strategy as highlighted at par. 5.2. AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00
Page 95 of 128
The 2011 Chamber of Mines Wage Agreement provides for the minimum payment of R20 000.00 (Twenty Thousand Rand) severance pay in the event of employer initiated retrenchments. When it might become necessary to retrench or to downscale operations the company will comply with the constitution of South Africa , the Labour Relations Act, 1995, the Minerals and Petroleum Resource Development Act, 28 of 2002, and any applicable ILO Convention in particular convention 158. .
5.3.4
Steps undertaken to avoid job losses
As previously reported, the growth path of the company is based on (i) redesigning, (ii) rebasing, (iii) improvement, and (iv) cost saving and reduction. It enabled the company to ward off employer initiated downscaling during the first half of 2013. Excess labour was managed in a manner to avoid retrenchments and job losses, by amongst others transferring employees from Business Units where there was excess staff to Business Units where there was a need for particular skills. The company will continue to apply the following strategies to address excess labour by avoiding job losses as long as such approach proves sustainable:
Allowing for natural attrition; Placing a moratorium on recruitment and promotions (except in respect of scarce skills), and Allowing for voluntary exit arrangements and; Invoking the company’s retirement policy.
5.3.5
Communication and Consultation with Stakeholders
Communication with organised labour about the company’s growth strategy and operational and business sustainability challenges occurred at (i) national leadership level, (ii) regional leadership level and at (iii) local leadership level. Consultation and communication occurred in the following instances: AGA/ NUM steering committees; Quarterly Result Presentation sessions to Organised Labour Focused briefs to AMCU; Communication to employees by the newly appointed CEO; Meeting of the Future Forum; Regular interface with UASA and Solidarity, Utilization of the company’s print and electronic media; Community Briefings; Interaction with organised labour at the Optimisation of mining assets / Sindisa Gold project, and
5.3.6
Compliance with the Labour Relations Act
As mentioned above, there was no need to invoke the provisions of the Labour Relations Act, 66 of 1995, particularly with reference to sec. 189 (2) and (3), as the company did not contemplate retrenchments.
5.4
Utilisation of the Training Lay-Off Scheme
The approach in the rebasing exercise without retrenchment of employees, made it unnecessary to utilise the Training Lay-Off Scheme during the first half of 2013. AngloGold Ashanti Social and Labour Plan Report Half Year 2013- Vaal River – Rev 00

Downscaling and Retrenchment
In this section we address: REGULATION 46 (e) (iii) of the MPRDA which stipulates that the contents of a social and labour plan must: (e)
provide financially for the implementation of the social and labour plan in terms of the implementation of iii) the processes to manage downscaling and retrenchment
The company provides for the management of downscaling and retrenchment in terms of its Business plan process. The Labour Relations Act’s process and requirements will precede any downscaling that may lead to retrenchments. In the 2011-2013 Wage Agreement entered into between organized labour and the company, through the Chamber of Mines, provides for the payment of a minimum severance pay of not less than R20 000.00. It further undertook to pay a severance pay of not less than two weeks’ pay for every year worked. The company provides for the following when contemplating downscaling:
An ex-gratia payment equivalent to one month’s basic pay. 50% of the retrenchee’s monthly basic pay for every completed year of continuous service. Unions may in addition negotiate severance pay at company level while engaging companies in terms of s 189 of the Labour Relations Act, provided that the existing practice of two weeks’ basic pay per year of service will not be reduced.

SECTION 9: BENEFICIATION 9.1
Beneficiation in South Africa
AngloGold Ashanti is the world’s third largest gold producer, with 21 operations in 10 countries and is domiciled in South Africa. In all the countries in which we operate, governments are focusing on value-adding activities that benefit the local economies, either by increasing revenue or up skilling their people. Adding value to our mineral product before export from the country of origin is a serious aspect of the business. For AngloGold Ashanti, the notion of beneficiation or adding value to our product has been an integral part of the company’s strategic vision and marketing activities since the inception of its marketing department in 1999. This was, at that time, a novel approach in an industry that had hitherto failed to consider that its responsibility continued after mining activity and went beyond the refinery to the end consumer. Since then, AngloGold Ashanti has undertaken a number of initiatives to support both upstream and downstream activities. AngloGold Ashanti is a member of the World Gold Council and has been instrumental in initiatives that are aimed at supporting the gold market beyond South Africa. The main emphasis of our activities has been in jewellery design and manufacturing because we believe that the jewellery market provides the “floor” that supports the gold price. We are also investors in Rand Refinery (Pty) Limited, because gold refining is an important part of the process to convert our mined product to a metal form that can be used in inter alia jewellery, investment and technology.
9.2
Beneficiation initiatives in South Africa
AngloGold Ashanti has, over the past decade, committed itself to support the beneficiation of gold. This has included the provision of structural support to assist the growth and development of downstream industries.
9.2.1
Oro Africa
Our single largest beneficiation commitment is our long-term investment in Oro Africa, South Africa’s largest jewellery manufacturer and exporter. The company invested in the region of $6.1m when it acquired its shareholding in 2000. AngloGold Ashanti recently increased its stake in Oro Africa to 36% from 25%. This investment demonstrates our pledge to downstream activities, and presents potential for South Africa to leverage the depth of experience in terms of viable technical skills and practical business models in a highly competitive global jewellery market. As South Africa’s largest manufacturer and exporter of jewellery, Oro Africa continues to recruit and train scores of talented young South Africans in the art of jewellery creation. It serves clients throughout South Africa, North and South America, the United Kingdom, Australia and Mauritius, and is also looking to Dubai, the Middle East, India and China. See www.oroafrica.co.za for more information.

9.2.2.
AuDITIONS (The Global Gold Couture Jewellery Design competition)
AuDITIONS, the world’s largest gold design competition celebrated its 12th anniversary in 2012. It is held biennially in South Africa, Brazil and China with the objective of inspiring designers to innovate with gold design. The competitions strive to increase gold’s desirability and to advance and extend the boundaries of design by encouraging bold, new creations in high caratage gold. Entry to these competitions is targeted at design students and professionals, but is in fact open to all residents of the respective countries. The Brazilian jewellery market is vibrant and the competition there centres around collaboration and sustainable development of the industry. By comparison, AuDITIONS China uses the competition to leverage jewellery consumers and increase trade through retail outlets. These initiatives are each unique and have their own brand equity. In South Africa, entrants are invited to attend jewellery design seminars which provide valuable exposure to local and international best practice and design trends. Thereafter, entrants submit design renderings. An independent panel of judges selects the designs which best meet the competition brief and theme, and which are innovative and creative in terms of design. Using 18 carat gold sponsored by AngloGold Ashanti, the finalists work with the best South African manufacturers to produce the finalists’ artefacts and jewellery pieces. This provides the students and amateur designers a first-hand opportunity to learn about the manufacturing side of the jewellery business. The 2011/2012 South African gold couture collection was launched at a prestigious event in Johannesburg in July 2012 and the winners joined an international group of contributing designers who have over the past decade created the most valuable, modern, bespoke gold collection in the world. As in this collection of gold jewellery and artefacts is valued at more than $3.2m. At the AuDITIONS Gold Design Awards in 2012, Minister of Mineral Resources, Susan Shabangu spoke about the importance of gold beneficiation, as well as its historical and economic significance. She said jewellery manufacturing fits well within South Africa’s beneficiation strategy and has been identified as requiring support. The challenges include a shortage of skills, under- investment in research and development and the rising price of gold. She added that buying jewellery overseas is a trend that needs to be reversed, and that a more co-ordinated framework of research, development and investment is needed to enable the country to develop a competitive edge in the production of jewellery. “If we are to make the increased beneficiation of our minerals a reality, we need to get real about skills and enterprise development,” said Shabangu. “Without education, we will not be able to change the lives of ordinary people in South Africa. We are aware that this cannot solely be a government process. It needs to be developed and driven by all stakeholders and, therefore, we welcome what AngloGold Ashanti is doing,” she told those present. Speaking at the South African launch, the CEO of AngloGold Ashanti stated: “It is not the activity of gold mining that fascinates the world or evokes emotions, but the actual metal itself – as it is transformed through design into splendid, valuable items that define success, beauty and wealth. AngloGold Ashanti through its AuDITIONS programme continues to demonstrate the importance of investing in design talent. Every season designers and manufacturers raise the bar of technical excellence, innovation and design, presenting yet another astonishing gold collection showcasing South Africa’s talent.” See www.goldauditions.com for more information.

9.2.3
Gold of Africa Museum
In February 1999 AngloGold Ashanti acquired 350 West African gold artefacts from the Barbier-Mueller museum in Geneva, Switzerland to preserve the art of African goldsmithing and inspire contemporary design. As a result of this acquisition, AngloGold Ashanti established – and continues to support – the Gold of Africa Museum in Cape Town. This exclusive Museum attracts local and international visitors, allowing them to experience the ancient, sometimes mystical, relationships that exist between the African continent and this precious metal. Although primarily home to the Barbier-Mueller collection, the Museum – with its state-of-the-art visuals and artistic displays – also exhibits objects from the ancient gold civilisations of southern Africa. Temporary exhibits from countries as diverse as India, Brazil, Mali and Egypt explore the commonality of the historical gold theme as it crosses geographical borders and cultural divides. The Museum not only preserves gold history and educates visitors; it is in addition a developing cultural hub, providing space for other local art endeavours (such as women from KwaZulu-Natal who specialise in weaving highly sought-after wire bowls). It also hosts the only gold-based scholars programme in the country. See www.goldofafrica.com for more information.
9.2.4
Rand Refinery
AngloGold holds a 42.41% iterest in Rand Refinery (Pty) Limited, a key player in the beneficiation/value-added chain in South Africa and on the African continent. Rand Refinery was established in 1920 and is certified by the London Bullion Market Association. This means it complies with the highest standards required by bullion banks, commodity traders and coin distributors. The Refinery goes beyond just refining doré; it produces gold cast bars, minted bars, semi-finished product, coins and certified gold. These products are available to the South African and the global market. AngloGold Ashanti’s investment in terms of time and resources in the Refinery places South Africa in a competitive position, opening up various beneficiation opportunities. See www.randrefinery.co.za for more information
9.2.5
The Gold Zone
The Refinery itself has a number of other beneficiation initiatives. The Gold Zone offers both local and international jewellery manufacturers a cost-effective location for their manufacturing facilities. Additional benefits include access to bulk manufactured semi-fabricated jewellery components and proximity to the Refinery. The latter is important as it provides easy access to facilities for re-refining any scrap gold produced in the jewellery manufacturing process. This initiative aims to assist gold jewellery manufacturers to beneficiate African gold for export and to assist local communities with skills development. The Gold Zone, assisted by the African Growth Opportunity Act, offers the added advantage of exporting jewellery to the USA. The facility also houses a number of skills development projects aimed at uplifting local communities, and with a view to employment in the jewellery manufacturing industry.

Page 108 of 128
The following projects are located in the Gold Zone: Richline SA was established in 1978 by Alan Mair as South African Manufacturing Jewellers (SAMJ), Richline Group Inc. acquired the assets of SAMJ in October 2012. The new company now operates as Richline SA (Pty) Ltd and is located in the Gold Zone. The company is committed to delivering innovative jewellery design and manufacturing, a legacy of SAMJ. While the company will continue to produce gold and silver jewellery, it specialises in “bonded gold”; a product that combines two precious metals, gold over silver, in a technologically sophisticated process. The firm intends to revitalise its focus in both the South African local market and also exports into Africa and other areas of the world. See www.richlinegroup.com for more information. Gold Reef City Mint has been a dealer and manufacturer of fine, classic and modern numismatic (study or collecting of coins or medals) items for more than 30 years. It is one of two privately-owned mints in South Africa that have minted South African legal tender coins. It manufactures a variety of coins, medals, corporate gifts, badges, key rings, medallions and trophies. The Mint is also an approved distributor of the South See www.grcmint.co.za for more information. Intsika Skills Beneficiation Project (Intsika) is a section 21 organisation. Using precious and semi-precious minerals and stones, it teaches skills in mineral beneficiation. Founded in 2002, it began operating in 2004 at its current location in the Gold Zone. The project was developed to assist in the development of the youth, particularly given the high rate of unemployment in the area, as well as the need to promote beneficiation, encourage entrepreneurship and reduce poverty among young people from historically disadvantaged backgrounds. Trainees earn credits by participating in the project, and these can usually be applied towards a National Certificate in Jewellery Manufacturing. The Ekurhuleni Jewellery Project was launched in mid-2009, and caters for industry-based skills programmes and the development of small, medium-sized and microenterprises (SMMEs). Learners receive some theoretical training, and participation in the project adds the necessary practical skills. It also provides them with a nationally recognised qualification. After a training period, learners are upskilled for the relevant industry. These SMME incubators offer qualified, emerging jewellers access to fully-equipped workshops, production services and technical support. These entrepreneurs are provided with an opportunity to develop their own businesses in a secure and enabling environment sponsored by the Ekurhuleni municipality. The Ekurhuleni Jewellery project provides support for the industry by providing accredited short courses, skills programmes and has a recognition-of-prior-learning system in its Training for the Trade programmes. See www.randrefinery.co.za for more information.
