Organizations in the Mining industry are under increasing pressure to improve ESG and sustainability performance, from your internal leadership and employees to your external stakeholders such as investors, creditors, policy makers, supply chain partners, and consumers. This presents many challenges depending on your internal competencies and knowledge of material reporting topics and KPIs for the Mining industry.

First, it is important to understand what ESG and sustainability is (and is not), where it came from, and why it’s only going to grow as an expectation in the future.

Second, it is crucial to understand you own unique business drivers and challenges. Only then, can you easily sift through the “alphabet soup” of ESG and sustainability frameworks, standards, and rating agencies to focus on what truly matters.

And finally, you can identify and prioritize material topics, KPIs, and performance expectations of key stakeholders in the Mining industry.
