Social Responsibility Policy
Signal Equities’ future is dependent on our ability to develop, operate and
close mines consistent with our commitment to sustainable development;
protection of human life, health and the environment; and adding value to
the communities in which we operate.
To
realize these commitments, we will:
-
Develop and use systems to identify and manage risks and to provide
accurate information to support effective decision making.
-
Train our people and provide the resources to meet our social
responsibility objectives and targets.
-
Respect the social, economic and cultural customs of local communities.
-
Adopt policies, standards and operating practices that ensure ongoing
improvement.
-
Wherever appropriate and feasible, set operating standards, which exceed
the requirements of the local, state, and federal law.
-
Assess our performance against our policies and standards.
-
Demand leadership in social responsibility from all our employees.
-
Seek to share our success by partnering with stakeholders in appropriate
community development programs.
-
Consult stakeholders in matters that affect them.
-
Strive to communicate our performance in an accurate, transparent, and
timely manner.
We
understand the actions and conduct of every Signal employee and contractor
are the basis upon which our stakeholders will evaluate our commitment to
achieving the highest standards of social responsibility.
Because environmental, health and safety issues can affect the communities
where we operate, we will carry out our Social Responsibility Policy in
conjunction with our Environmental and Health and Safety Policies. |
