Boss gives 10 employees a $100,000 Christmas bonus
Gina Rinehart, the richest person in Australia, chooses ten workers at random to earn a 100,000 AUD christmas bonus, with one of the winners having joined the company just three months prior. According to news Corp Australia, a source said on monday that staff at Hancock Prospecting-owned Roy Hill were eligible to win a $100,000 christmas bonus on 6PR Radio's john Hughes Rumor File. The Perth radio programme was informed by a source that "apparently last week Gina urged all Roy Hill personnel to stand-by for an important announcement."
"She said that she would draw 10 names from a hat and call them. Each of those people would get a $100,000 christmas bonus." An unnamed Roy Hill employee called the radio station on tuesday to corroborate the rumour. The employee claimed that one of the winners had only worked for the mining company for three months. According to Forbes, iron ore was the foundation of Gina Rinehart's wealth. After taking over as executive chairwoman of her father's financially precarious business, Hancock Prospecting, in 1992, Rinehart, the daughter of iron-ore explorer Lang Hancock, rebuilt it.
The Roy Hill mining operation, which started shipping to Asia in 2015, is Hancock's most valuable asset. The mining tycoon is also Australia's second-largest cattle producer, with a portfolio of assets spread across the nation. According to the most recent rich list published by the Australian Financial Review, the mining magnate is already the richest person in Australia, with a net worth of 34 billion Australian dollars. Gina Rinehart was reportedly also sighted at Donald Trump's 2024 presidential campaign kickoff on wednesday at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, according to The Guardian.
