The AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi Mine employment record for 2025 shows strong commitment to local inclusion, according to the Chairman of the Community Employment Committee, Mark Oti. He revealed that the mine employed a total of 534 workers last year, out of which 449 were indigenes of Obuasi. This means about 84 percent of the workforce came directly from the Obuasi community.
Speaking on the issue, Mark Oti explained that the AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi Mine employment process is transparent and open to verification. He stated that anyone who has doubts about the figures can visit the appropriate offices to see evidence of those employed. This, he said, will help people in Obuasi understand the true goodwill and commitment of the company toward the local community.
He added that AngloGold Ashanti is ready to provide validation forms, if requested, to confirm that the people employed are truly from Obuasi. According to him, workers have been employed from various parts of the municipality, including Kunka Junction, Anyinam, Estate, Kokoteasua, Sampsonkrom, Akaporiso, Asonkore, and other communities.
Mark Oti emphasized that the goal of the committee is to ensure fairness and equity in the AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi Mine employment process. He noted that employing people from different areas within Obuasi is part of their responsibility to maintain balance and fairness across the municipality.
