Corporate Healthcare project
GRI 403‑6General physical and mental state, health status, and psychological stability directly affect workplace safety, labour productivity, and employee well‑being. Growing a network of corporate medical facilities is one of the goals of the Company’s Sustainable Social Development Strategy through 2030, which aims to provide employees, their families, and local communities with high‑quality medical services, improve their accessibility and IT functions, and establish an effective corporate healthcare system.
Nornickel has been running the corporate healthcare development project since 2019. It involves the construction and upgrade of medical infrastructure facilities (healthcare centres, medical aid posts, medical examination rooms), recruitment of highly qualified medical personnel, introduction of advanced information technologies, and promotion of healthcare in the regions where the Company operates.

Taking into account disease statistics and relevant trends, dedicated programmes have been implemented at healthcare centres since 2023, including Healthy Woman of the North (Monchegorsk), Healthy Heart, and Diabetes School (Norilsk, Dudinka). Training events, including lectures, excursions, and awareness raising campaigns (publications and videos) are also in place to protect employees’ health.

It is also responsible for identifying and assessing the risk of health hazards arising at the workplace, monitoring work‑related health status, analysing the factors of occupational morbidity and ways to diminish them. The service seeks to deliver quality medical care to employees directly at work.

The Company has in place the Digital Medicine programme with innovative IT solutions in healthcare, including a mobile app for employees to quickly view their medical records, book a medical appointment, and find all the necessary information about healthcare centres. The programme has been operating in the Zapolyarye Health Resort since 2021 and in Norilsk since 2022, with Dudinka and the Kola Peninsula in the process of joining the programme.
