Golden Star Wassa Limited (GSWL)<\/strong><\/p>\nGolden Star Wassa Limited (GSWL), a gold mining company, has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with its 12 catchment communities at a ceremony at Akyempem in the Western Region.<\/p>\n
The 12 communities include Akyempem, Atieku, Juabeng, Kubekro, New Akosombo, New Togbekrom, Nsadweso, Odumase\/Essumenamu, Old Subri, Aninabriem, Mampongso and Accra Newtown.<\/p>\n
Golden Star Resources (GSR) is the gold mining firm that owns and operates the Wassa and Prestea underground mine in the region.<\/p>\n
The MoU covered local employment and contract, a development foundation as well as relationship and sustainable livelihoods.<\/p>\n
The crafting of the MoU was an outcome of a District Security Council (DISEC) meeting in mid 2017 to resolve disagreements between the leaders of mining communities, agitated youth and GSR management over employment opportunities.<\/p>\n
The purpose of the MoU was to ensure that GSWL and the 12 communities work together to ensure prudent and transparent use of resources to benefit its host communities.<\/p>\n
The Managing Director of GSR, Mr. Shadrack Adjetey Sowah, said that the company had been honouring its commitment in giving employment and awarding contracts to community members.<\/p>\n
He, however, noted that due to the absence of a formal framework, those activities had always generated suspicion on the part of the communities.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have incurred occasional agitations as a result of dissatisfaction with the distribution employment opportunities and award of contracts among the communities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The Chief Executive Officer of GSR, Andrew Wray, described the MoU as a significant milestone in formalizing the mutually beneficial relationship between the company and the communities.<\/p>\n
