The generation of formal employment and the hiring of local companies are the main engine that we activate to boost the local economy and to promote knowledge and production, as we seek that the communities generate their own development.

Accordingly, in 2022, 63.31% of the labor hired came from the regions and communities in our area of influence. Likewise, we have procured services and products from local companies for more than US$ 225 million in all the regions where we operate.

On the other hand, we have a Productive Development and Business Articulation Program in our mining units, known as the PRA Buenaventura. This emblematic program seeks to improve the traditional productive capacities of the local population to place them in a previously identified market, promoting business in our areas of influence.
