Environment, social and governance services for the mining sector
Today’s consumers now demand mining companies to demonstrate responsible practices – from how they protect their local environment, to their consideration of social issues such as diversity and modern slavery.
Very few industries in Australia are as impacted by these consumer demands as the mining sector – particularly for established oil and gas operators who also face growing competition from new entrants focussing on 100% renewable energies.
With pressure rising for all mining businesses, there has never been a better time to start evaluating their environmental, social and governance (ESG) practices. Take a proactive approach to demonstrating your business’s commitment to environment, social and governance within the mining sector.
Engage RSM's ESG experts to support your mining business
With a long history supporting mining companies across Australia with tax, accounting and advisory services, RSM’s experienced team are well-placed to help you lay the best possible foundations for ESG.
In addition to showcasing a commitment to environmental and social issues to the public, we often find our clients are able to attract quality investors who consider ESG an essential element prior to providing funding.
If you have a future goal to publicly list your company, you will also need support in evaluating how ASX listing guidelines for ESG apply to your business.
We can help you:
- Understand the implications and importance of ESG
- Benchmark performance against your peers
- Develop ESG monitoring and reporting frameworks
- Break down silos to enable a holistic view of ESG
- Integrate ESG into shareholder reporting
How can RSM help your mining business with ESG?
While ESG can be a complex space, our dedicated ESG team works closely with mining companies to help ready them for potential regulatory changes and position them ahead of their peers in a highly competitive marketplace.
We operate across the full spectrum of ESG – from climate change and water management to product safety, labour practices, and data security.
Starting with a review of existing policies and practices, we can support you in making changes that ultimately provide for better reporting and greater transparency across the business. In properly documenting your approach, including how your work impacts on the local environment, your business becomes more appealing to larger clients who are required to assess ESG risks across their supply chains.
Ask us to assist with:
- Understanding how ESG relates to your business bottom line
- Setting up and managing ESG frameworks, reporting and optimising your ESG peformance
- Determining risk controls for climate change
- Advising on industry initiatives
- Conducting internal audits against ESG policies
- Integrating ESG into shareholder reporting
- Managing your own supply chain risks and opportunities in consideration of ESG
- Assessing social practices, such as indigenous employment
