Heath Goldfields Ltd. has announced the commencement of severance payments to eligible former employees of the Bogoso–Prestea Mine, as part of efforts to settle outstanding obligations.
In a public notice dated April 27, 2026, the company said the payments are in line with the July 11, 2021 Severance Agreement and will cover the outstanding balance of the second instalment as well as the final instalment due affected workers.
The company outlined key requirements for eligibility, including qualification under the agreement, return of all company property, completion of clearance processes, and verification of bank account details.
A verification exercise is scheduled to take place from April 28 to May 1, 2026, between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. daily at the Bogoso–Prestea Mine site. Eligible individuals have been asked to present themselves in person within the stated period to complete the necessary processes.
Heath Goldfields indicated that payments will be processed by May 5, 2026, subject to full compliance with the outlined requirements.
The company also noted that beneficiaries will be required to accept the payments as full and final settlement of all severance claims, effectively waiving any future claims related to their entitlements.
Heath Goldfields reaffirmed its commitment to meeting legacy obligations, ensuring transparency, and maintaining trust with stakeholders.
