ISN^® helps third-largest copper producer in Canada streamline contractor management and track worker-level requirements to improve safety on jobsites

ISN, the global leader in contractor and supplier information management services, announced Hudbay Minerals Inc. (Hudbay), a copper-focused, critical minerals mining company, has selected ISNetworld as its primary contractor information management platform. Hudbay transitioned its contractor pre-qualification process from internal teams to ISNetworld for ongoing monitoring of contractor requirements and verification of worker-level training.

“Hudbay cares deeply about people, communities, and the planet. Safety is a cornerstone of our commitment to operational excellence, which extends to the safety of Hudbay’s contractors,” said Chris Lengyel, Director of Supply Chain Management at Hudbay. “Hudbay previously managed contractors internally, which became increasingly time-intensive and complex as operations expanded. Partnering with ISN allows Hudbay to ease the administrative burden on our employees, while maintaining contractor safety and compliance standards critical to our operations.”

In addition to contractor qualification, Hudbay tracks worker-level requirements through ISNetworld’s Online Training tool, reinforcing the company’s commitment to building its culture of zero harm.

“Hudbay is widely recognized as an industry leader in responsible mining and strong community engagement. Hudbay’s care for its employees and local communities is evident in its contractor safety and compliance standards,” said Kim Ritchie, Senior Vice President at ISN. “ISN is proud to help Hudbay improve contractor management and promote work sites where safety and accountability remain top priorities.”
