Introduction

Our Trusted Corporate Leader theme is focused on how we build trust through our people, with our stakeholders and in our industry.

We are improving accountability by transforming the relationship between our mining operations, the communities where we operate, and wider society.

We are part of an ethical value chain and provide products to our customers that are sourced responsibly, meeting the highest ethical and sustainability standards.

We are proud to be advocates for what we believe is right and to work as partners to solve complex problems through our public policy engagement.

What are the focus areas for Trusted Corporate Leader?

Within the Trusted Corporate Leader theme, the focus areas are Our people, Global voice and Ethical business, which bring to life our commitment to integrating sustainability as the common thread in everything we do.

Beyond our workforce, we actively engage stakeholders – including communities, industry partners, governments and civil society – with transparency and integrity. We uphold rigorous standards validated by third-party certification and influencing best practices worldwide. By embedding responsible governance, sustainability, and innovation into every level of our business, responsible mining is part of our DNA.

By operating responsibly through deep respect for human rights, actively engaging our stakeholders with transparency and integrity, and applying the robust sustainability standards validated by third-party certification, we foster trust with our customers, host communities and governments.

Beyond our own operations, we strive to use our voice to help drive improvements across the mining sector by shaping higher global standards, to catalyse multi-sector impact and advocate for responsible business practices, to drive enduring positive outcomes. Through these actions, we continue our journey as a trusted leader in the global industry.
