The BHP Billiton Charter values state that the Company has an overriding commitment of health, safety, environmental responsibility and sustainable development. Safety is therefore recognised as the responsibility of every person in the Company’s operations.
The safety of employees, contractors and the communities in which Illawarra Coal operates is an integral part of its business. Safety risks are managed across all sites through risk-based HSEC Management Standards.
As well, Illawarra Coal works with the community to support community projects, provide information about its operations and future plans, listens to community concerns and addresses those concerns by trying to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes.
