Safety as a culture: Lydian Armenia records 1M man-hours without a lost-time injury

Lydian Armenia press release

Employees of Lydian Armenia and representatives of contractor companies involved in the Amulsar Project came together to celebrate a major safety milestone achieved during construction activities at Amulsar: 1M man-hours without a lost-time injury (LTI).

In the mining industry, this metric is widely used to assess a company’s health and safety performance. Reaching 1M man-hours without an LTI means that employees collectively worked 1M hours without experiencing any work-related incident that resulted in time away from work or prevented them from returning to their normal job responsibilities.

During the event, Hayk Aloyan, Managing Director of Lydian Armenia, once again underscored the importance of workplace safety at Amulsar. He congratulated the team on this achievement and emphasized the importance of continuously improving safety performance every day and every hour. He reminded attendees that ensuring a safe workplace is the responsibility of every team member and that safety is about teamwork and looking out for one another.

“For Lydian Armenia-and for me personally-ensuring the highest standards of workplace safety at Amulsar has always been a top priority. These are not just words; they reflect our commitment and the safety culture we have built over the years. It is a culture that continues to guide us and one that we actively promote among our partners and in our communities. Everyone working on the Amulsar Project must return home safe and healthy every day,” said Hayk Aloyan.

The event concluded with a symbolic signing ceremony, during which every team member signed a specially prepared banner, reaffirming their commitment to working safely and looking out for one another.
