 The Group's sustainability efforts are managed through its Health, Safety, Environment
and Community Relations (HSECR) System.
At the Board level, an HSECR Committee that includes the Chief Executive is responsible
for formulating HSECR policies, reviewing investigations of any accidents, and evaluating independent performance audits and action plans.
Key sustainability issues are identified through the risk management process, which
includes an analysis of likelihood and impact.
At the operations level, each business unit has separate programme managers specifically responsible for aspects of health, safety, environment and community relations who report
to the business unit manager and to an HSECR corporate co-ordinator. Each mine also has
a Comisión de Seguridad e Higiene – Hygiene and Safety Commission – comprised of
representatives from the union and non-union employees as well as contractors who
monitor and review performance on an ongoing basis. The HSECR team reports to the Executive Committee every three months.
In 2010 the Sustainable Development Manager position was created to advise on global
CSR best practices and co-ordinate Board and operations-level initiatives. |
