Honesty and sincerity are an important aspect in my life.I am loyal in work and towards colleagues.
I ran the Engineering workshops for Sibanyestillwater. My duties was to ensure all repair work coming in was done to standard and ensure the QC checks were done. I had to resolve all staff issues including the Union issues. I had a good relationship with the staff and Union. I am a Electrician by trade and had to learn the mechanical side of repairs which was very rewarding. The challanging part of the work was to get SNR Management to give their buy in to manufacture additional new mining equipment. The rewarding part of the work was to see my department reaching their targets.
Pros: Great learning experience
Cons: Routine daily same job

Safety and Learning curve
Education alone is not enough without the practical experience. One has to take advises from the experienced people on the job but with cautions so as to avoid safety compromising. The method of performing a certain task as stated in theory may not yield the desired results underground due to many factor ignored during the construction of such a method on surface. NEVER COMPROMISE ON SAFETY! A mineral with blood costs the company more money than it would have, had it not mined at all.
Pros: Great opportunities for individual development
Cons: Unskilled stereotyped Labour intensive

Hard worker and fast learner
I worked as Computer operator, HR Admin reliever and appointed as Junior clerk am 36 years old, As I was affected by retrenchment on my current job at Sibanyestillwater/use to be Sibanyegold, I real think and believe that the job on the advertised post/email could be mine. I'm still young and healthy, I have five kids to look after that I'm raising them without their mom (wife passed away 2015) the old one is now 13years and the last one is two years now, I still have a lot to do to raise them, without a job to me is going to be tough.
Pros: Great opportunity for promotion
Cons: Abnormal hours I'm used on working under pressure
