Sharing the Vision
Barrick Gold's vision is to be the world's best gold company by finding, acquiring, developing and producing quality reserves in a safe, profitable and socially responsible manner.
Access Innovation’s vision is to provide a safe working environment for all staff and employees.
Because of the remote and challenging areas workers are placed in, the risks are always high. Workers need to feel safe and secure in their workplace. Barrick currently has a portfolio of 27 producing mines and ten development projects across five continents.
Continually improving
Michael Magnussen, Access Innovations’ owner and CEO is driven to improve technology and safety based on his personal work experience. He wants to do everything in his power to prevent injuries and to protect heavy equipment operators from the inherent dangers of using that equipment. Safety is his central focus.
Magnussen’s safety priority mirrors Barrick’s motto of “Every person going home safe and healthy every day.” Great companies are built on the efforts of their employees from the most junior to the most senior. Employing the most advanced means to ensure their safety is a company’s responsibility. It can prevent accidents and time lost, boost morale, enhance the company’s image and its bottom line. It is a winning investment all around.
Magnussen started out as an operator who saved a good friend who had fallen from a Caterpillar grader while cleaning the windows...The worker survived because Mike found him and rushed him to emergency care. Since then he has been developing, patenting and building motor grader access systems which have gained the approval of most of the major mining houses who specify his system in Australia.
The purpose-built, access safety systems that Access Innovations has developed are ideal for Barrick Gold Corporation with the long-term success depending on creating safety and value for all concerned.
