Harmony had several fatalities at its Tshepong operations last year among the 11 deaths it reported in 2019.
The most recent fatality was less than a month ago, when Harmony reported a security contractor was fatally wounded in an armed attack on the plant at its Kalgold operations on December 20.
Tshepong, where mining is at a depth of 1,500-2,300m, is one of Harmony's nine underground mines in South Africa.
The company also has an openpit mine in the country and operations in Papua New Guinea.
