Keno Hill Team Recognized with Hecla Safety Award
4/02/2025
As a company that values our people and their #safety, Hecla believes it’s important to recognize the people who put that vision into reality, and the team effort it requires. To that end, Hecla recently recognized the team at our Keno Hill operations for the tremendous strides made over the course of 2024 to improve safety performance. CEO Rob Krcmarov presented them with the Hecla Safety Award as part of a work visit to the site in March.
Among other areas, the team at Keno Hill took meaningful steps to improve workplace air quality, alleviate traffic congestion on site, upgrade guarding and other mine infrastructure, and bolster emergency response capabilities. Other Hecla sites also recorded hundreds of safety improvements, consistent with our relentless pursuit of innovation and improvement. On a per-employee basis, however, the Keno Hill team outpaced their peers. Congratulations to the team at Keno Hill and thank you to the teams at all Hecla’s sites for their ongoing efforts to pursue safety excellence.
