Vision For Sustainability
Our sustainability Vision
focuses on four key areas; everybody going home safe and healthy every day, caring for the environment, developing and maintaining strong relationships with our communities and governments, and acting ethically and transparently.
Safety & Health
We value
learning and sharing knowledge to improve how we maintain a safe and healthy workplace, through an emphasis on safety leadership, effective management of critical risks, a focus on health, hygiene and wellbeing and robust process safety management.
Communities
Community Engagement & Social Contribution
We have open and constructive approach to community engagement and investment.
We know that our economic and social contribution is critical to maintaining our license to operate and ensuring that communities see lasting benefits from our operations.
We are committed to taking a leadership position on climate change. Climate change is the most pressing challenge of our generation as well as a once in a lifetime opportunity for economic growth and value creation that generates a better, cleaner, more sustainable world.
In a world dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic, societal expectations on climate action remain high. Addressing them will, today more than ever, require businesses, governments and society to work together.
Climate Change Strategy
Our Climate Change Strategy is based on the following four elements:
- Reducing emissions – Decarbonising our operations to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030.
- Engagement and collaboration – Working with stakeholders across our value chain to support efforts to develop and deploy low carbon solutions.
- Maximising opportunities – Pioneering new low carbon solutions and diversifying the commodities we produce.
- Building resilience – Working to ensure the resilience of our operations, assets, value chain and communities.
