Mimosa Mining Company held its much-anticipated annual sports day on October 18, an event designed to foster employee wellness, promote teamwork, and enhance psychological safety.
Speaking to Great Dyke News, General Manager Engineer Stephen Ndiyamba emphasized the importance of this day, stating it is the culmination of various wellness programs conducted throughout the year.
“This day allows employees, contractors, and even the local community to come together, have fun, build friendships, and engage in healthy competition,” said Ndiyamba. “It fosters teamwork by breaking down workplace hierarchies, as managers compete alongside employees in a relaxed environment.”
Ndiyamba stressed that such programs not only create a bond between colleagues but also enable open communication between management and junior employees.
“We aim to build psychological safety where employees feel comfortable engaging with managers, which ultimately enhances performance across the organization.”
The event aligns with Mimosa Mine’s core value of teamwork, which, according to Ndiyamba, is essential in achieving business objectives
