Ma’aden has been strengthening its sustainability strategy since 2015. A key milestone in our journey in 2020 was the launch of our new company-wide Sustainability Framework, which adopts leading global standards and practices, and outlines our commitment and approach to sustainable development.
Ma’aden’s Sustainability Framework was implemented across all business units in 2020, showing our clear, impactful and measurable commitment to eight major sustainability goals relating to these priorities.
Create a "zero harm" work environment and strengthen the safety culture of our employees, contractors, customers, and host communities.
Provide employees with a working environment that improves their health and wellbeing.
Be a welcomed neighbour, respecting human rights and maintaining meaningful relationships with our host communities globally.
Contribute positively to the economy in our host countries and local communities in which we operate.
Continue to be a steward for responsible water management practices and provide innovative solutions to water scarcity, ensuring that community water systems are not affected by our operations.
Evolve our business practices to pioneer new thinking, technology, and business models to ensure climate resilience, ecological preservation and environmental justice.
Strive to reduce waste and impact associated with our sourcing, operations and materials across our value chain and throughout our products’ lifecycles.
Gain international recognition for being a sustainable company, driven by robust business practices, innovation and values.
In pursuing these goals, Ma’aden has adopted a leadership model that inspires a culture of sustainability internally and creates informed leaders who can actively represent the company as a sustainability champion. Ma’aden has also worked to implement its sustainability framework with transparency, consistency and accountability. We also are open and transparent in reporting on the progress we are making – issuing an independently assured annual sustainability report in line with Global Reporting Initiative standards.
