Grace Musas, an employee of Kinsenda Copper Company, has found there is a real paradigm of cooperation in an enterprise run by a Chinese firm in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Since 2017, the 32-year-old has been working as the deputy head of its finance department. She has not only received a competitive salary but has also greatly improved her abilities under the guidance of the company’s leaders and her colleagues.

Owned by the Jinchuan Group, Kinsenda fully respects the professional opinions of its staff members, providing a stage for them to display their abilities and pursue their careers. The company is also committed to providing each of its local employees with an annual wage increase.

“I gave birth to a child last year. In order to take good care of the child, the company provided me with a free apartment on the work site,” she said.

Due to differences in language, culture and the institutional environment, Chinese companies operating in the DR Congo encounter problems in taxation, loans and labor given their unfamiliarity with local policies.

In dealing with such problems, the staff members will carefully study the relevant policies and regulations from the perspective of enterprises and give solutions to the management group.

Free medical benefits, maize flour, tuition fees and holiday welfare are provided for Kinsenda’s employees. The company also gives an extra month’s bonus every year and quarterly awards.

The free training provided by the company is an important reason for the growth of workers’ business capabilities in Kinsenda. The training provided by the company includes online and offline courses at home and abroad, business conferences and lectures by well-known experts in the industry.

“In Kinsenda, we work in a multicultural environment. It is enjoyable to work with Chinese people. They are full of enthusiasm for work and life. They are happy to share their work experience. We can get along well and make improvements together.

“I have learned a large number of working methods in my daily work and understand the views of Chinese people on work. Therefore, I am happy to attend some training in China to learn more about my working partners,” she said.

Kinsenda is a subsidiary of the Jinchuan Group, a well-known mining company headquartered in China. The management team of Kinsenda is a capable, efficient and pragmatic work team composed of people from China, South Africa and the DR Congo. It is a medium-sized mining company that has provided 1,533 jobs for people in the area, which plays a positive role in community development in the DR Congo.
