Baseline Assessment of Current Corporate Practice

(In cooperation with PricewaterhouseCoopers)

MMSD and PwC undertook a survey of the top mining and minerals companies to assess current company understanding of sustainability issues and the current status of arrangements to manage those issues. The analysis of the survey aims to identify what companies need to do in the future to move towards more sustainable practices.

The survey report “Mining & Minerals Sustainability Survey 2001” covers the sustainability-related corporate practices of 32 companies based on a survey questionnaire and interviews undertaken earlier this year by PwC. The survey was designed to provide an independent assessment of corporate understanding of and engagement in sustainable development concepts and practices in the industry as well as a baseline against which future developments can be compared.
