Mineral Resources began swab-screening its ‘fly in, fly out’ workforce for COVID-19 in April. It subsequently began offering its services to other mining companies, and has tested employees from firms such as BHP, Northern Star Resources and Ramelius Resources. It operates drive-through testing hubs in Perth, Mandurah, Kalgoorlie and Port Hedland, along with screening centres in Geraldton, Esperance and Busselton. Mineral Resources COO Mike Grey says the company is proud of the role it has played in keeping the Western Australian resources sector operating during the pandemic and protecting the health and jobs of the sector’s employees.
