This policy
will be reviewed at appropiate intervals and revised
where necessary to keep it current.
Safety:
We hold leaders accountable for the safety
of our people.
We expect our managers and supervisors to provide
effective leadership in safety whilst recognising
that good safety behaviour is the responsibility
of all those who work for us.
Management of every business or operation is responsible
for the full implementation of our safety management
system (the Anglo Safety Way), the Fatal Risk Standards
and the Golden Rules. This requires the allocation
of appropriate resources and the provision of training,
education, consultation and auditing to ensure compliance.
We commit to open communication with our employees,
contractors, suppliers and other business partners
and interested third parties to encourage a safety
culture that reflects the intent of this policy.
We will set appropriate objectives and monitor progress
against these to ensure continual improvement towards
our goal.
Occupational Health:
Line management is responsible and will
be held accountable for the implementation of
this policy and we expect all employees and contractors
to contribute to maintaining a working environment
that is without significant risk to health.
We commit to the reduction of exposure at source
through good engineering practice and application
of the ALARP1 principle; compliance with the law
will always be the minimum standard.
We will provide appropriate resources, systems
and training to protect, maintain and promote
the health and working capacity of our people.
We commit to open and transparent communication
on occupational health with all stakeholders.
We will set appropriate objectives and monitor
progress against these to ensure continual improvement
towards our goal.
Environmental Health:
We hold our leaders accountable for the
environmental management of our activities.
We expect our line managers and supervisors to
provide effective leadership in environmental
management whilst recognising that environmental
management is the responsibility of all who work
for us.
Managers of every business or operation are responsible
for the full implementation of the Anglo Environmental
Management Framework and participation in the
Anglo Peer Review Programme. This requires:
We shall conserve and protect environmental resources
through, amongst others, the efficient use of
energy and water, minimising waste and reducing
pollution.
We shall demonstrate active stewardship of land,
freshwater systems and biodiversity with which
we interact.
We respect people’s culture and heritage
We shall comply with environmental legislation
and other requirements to which we subscribe,
and develop a culture of improvement.

local communities, contractors, suppliers, investors,
business partners and other interested parties
to encourage an environmentally responsible culture
that reflects intent of this policy.
