“The focus of Hudbay is always on safety.”
Walt Ryan
Health, Safety and Training Coordinator, Manitoba
Read moreAs Walt Ryan says, when it comes to evaluating situations related to health and safety, or advising his co-workers on the same subject, “I can talk the talk because I walked the walk.” And then some. Walt has been a miner for over 40 years, with most of that time spent with Hudbay. Though he’s been “a jackleg miner”, much of his career has been spent in underground construction and for the last few years he’s been a health, safety and training coordinator, working primarily in the 777 mine in Flin Flon. In reflecting on his experience, Walt notes that “there’s a camaraderie in mining that you don’t see in other industries. You can count on the people you’re working with to keep an eye out.” That culture and those values are represented across Hudbay. “I’ve studied a bit of the Company’s history,” says Walt. “The focus is always on safety – and that impresses me.”

“Part of my job is to share the core values of Hudbay, developed in Flin Flon starting 90 years ago, to the team in Arizona.”
Kim Proctor
Deputy Project Director, Rosemont
Read moreIn a career that spans three decades, 12 different jobs and 10 different mines, one of the things that Kim Proctor finds most rewarding about mining in general – and about working for Hudbay in particular – is the opportunity to learn new things. “Don’t back away from a career challenge,” says Kim. “Face it, own it and use it as an opportunity to shine.” That’s advice she both gives and follows. Before taking on her current role, Kim was the project manager in charge of developing Lalor, a mine in northern Manitoba that was completed with remarkable speed and a remarkable safety record. Today, she is in Arizona working on a proposed open pit project, after 30 years in underground mining. In addition to providing the insights of an expert mine developer, Kim is sharing “the core values of Hudbay, developed in Flin Flon, starting 90 years ago.”
