2023 SUSTAINABILITY HIGHLIGHTS
• Record Safety Performance: 32% reduction in reportable injuries and 51% reduction in lost-time injuries, compared to the 2022 calendar year.
• Diversity & Inclusion: 22% of new hires in 2023 were women, which is 10% above our current gender distribution within our workforce and highlights that First Majestic is moving toward greater female representation within the organization.
