Our Approach

A stakeholder engagement approach based on clear communication, transparency and trust, helps us to understand the interests and concerns of our stakeholders and emerging issues and risks to our operations.

The Stakeholder Engagement Performance Standard ensures a consistent approach to engaging with communities, employees and other stakeholders. Each of our sites use a systematic and recurring stakeholder mapping process (eg social impact assessment) to identify and prioritise stakeholders from direct and indirect influence areas, and those interested in, or potentially affected by site activities.

As site or social activities change (eg mine expansion projects, post-mine land use reviews, Black Lives Matter movement and Juukan Gorge), the level of interest of different stakeholder groups and the nature of their interests and concerns can also change. Special consideration is also given to identifying potentially vulnerable groups (either within the socio-economic or the political context) whose voices and perspectives may not otherwise be heard.

The table below provides an overview of stakeholder groups engaged in FY21, key interests and concerns, and how we generally respond to them. Updates on stakeholder engagement are provided to the Board Risk and Sustainability Committee on a quarterly basis.
