Participants in the Students Internship Program
Student Internships
During the year, the highly skilled and experienced
teams on site have also conducted internship
programmes for high school and university students
in Cameroon and Congo to help local education,
awareness and preparedness for the future
National workforce that will be required.
Cultural Diversity & Local Employment
Concerted efforts and strategies have been
developed, or are in the process of being formalised,
through the Cameroon and Congo Conventions for
promoting and supporting local employment. Over
the past year, the Company’s Cameroonian and
Congolese national workforce percentages have
increased to 39% and 26% respectively. More than
85 % of our in-country employees are nationals, either
from Congo or Cameroon. Sundance is very proud
of this achievement within its national workforce and
Sundance and its subsidiary companies will continue
to strongly support local employment initiatives.
We will continue to recognise, value and leverage the
diverse cultural employee base we have to effectively
achieve business objectives in all locations in which
we operate.
