In October 2024, Exxaro reaffirmed its commitment to employee health and well-being by hosting vibrant wellness events at the conneXXion and Grootegeluk. These initiatives aimed to inspire employees to prioritise their physical and mental health, fostering a supportive and balanced workplace culture.

The events featured a wide range of activities and services designed to encourage healthy habits and provide practical support. Employees engaged in medical screenings and health risk assessments, ensuring proactive care and access to vaccine services. Cancer screening was also available, emphasising the importance of early detection and prevention.

One of the highlights was the appearance of the King of Squats, a motivational fitness figure who brought infectious energy to both locations. His group workouts were filled with laughter, camaraderie, and plenty of sweat as employees pushed their limits in a fun and encouraging environment. His sessions not only promoted physical strength but also fostered a collective spirit, proving that fitness can be both enjoyable and transformative.

Participants also enjoyed pampering sessions, a perfect opportunity to relax and recharge, alongside healthy cooking demonstrations and well-being tips, which inspired employees to adopt nutritious eating habits. A culinary competition added an exciting twist, where employees showcased their skills, with the winning team earning well-deserved recognition and prizes.
