Across our operations, local employment,
procurement, and community investment
are the primary channels through which
economic value is distributed. These are
not separate from the business. They
are embedded in how we operate and
directly influence stability, performance,
and long-term outcomes.
The extent to which local people and businesses are able to
participate in our operations shapes the resilience of local
economies and the stability of our operations.
Our focus is on delivery. This means applying consistent
standards, building local capability, and ensuring that value created
through our operations supports long-term economic participation.
Creating long-term value at a local level requires strong
partnerships, local participation and disciplined execution across
our operations. Our mines contribute to economic development
through employment, local procurement, infrastructure and skills
development in the communities and countries where we operate.
