WIM Australia newsletter
The Women's Network in Australia has published their first newsletter of the year. Read below:
The AUSIMM WIMNet REGISTER ISSUE 1 2006
1. Women AusIMM Members Tell Us About their Working Lifestyles
The University of Queensland Centre for Social Responsibility in Mining (CSRM) has conducted a survey on behalf of Macquarie Securities and The AusIMM to ask our members about their individual experiences of working in the minerals industry, and about their views on factors which could impact them and the profitability and futuregrowth of the industry. Of the 1249 members who responded, 119 or 8.8% were female. The survey, which can be viewed at http://www.ausimm.com.au/2005survey_minerals_industry_professionals.pdf included several questions on attraction and retention in the minerals sector, looking at things such as remuneration, work/life balance, mentoring etc. The survey also asked respondents to make suggestions about what companies could do to better retain people. A total of 858 members and 91 women provide qualitative answers to this question. The next step at The AusIMM will be to analyse what you wrote together with the quantitative data, to provide an overview of what members want from their professional lives, in different disciplines, at different stages of their lives and along gender lines. The report will be published in The AusIMM Bulletin. Of the 119 women surveyed there were: 41 geologists, 20 metallurgists, 11 managers, 6 environment professionals and 13 other. Over 70% were partnered but only 32% had dependent children.
