Sustainability

The mining industry and bauxite will play a significant role in the global energy transition and Metro recognises the importance of continuing to operate in a safe, ethical and environmentally sound manner whilst also taking action to reduce our carbon footprint.

We adopt an integrated approach to sustainability, with our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) obligations and aspirations delivering enhanced value for our stakeholders. We seek a balanced approach to our operations with short-term and long-term economic impacts, health and safety, environmental stewardship, the local community and wellbeing of our employees all being key considerations in our decision-making processes.

Metro is committed to:

  • responsible stewardship of the environment and implementing sound sustainability practices through the life-of-mine cycle from development and operations through to rehabilitation and, ultimately, closure
  • continuing to work with our local indigenous communities, business groups, councils, charitable organisations and local service providers to share the social and economic outcomes of mining
  • employing and buying locally, where possible
  • acting ethically in all that we do
  • fostering a workplace culture that supports the health, safety and wellbeing of our employees, creates opportunities for advancement and promotes the attraction and retention of high-performing individuals.

ESG Journey Progress

Since establishing its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Committee in 2022, Metro has made significant progress in advancing its commitment to ESG goals.

We adopt an integrated approach to sustainability, with our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) obligations and aspirations delivering enhanced value for our stakeholders. We seek a balanced approach to our operations with short-term and long-term economic impacts, health and safety, environmental stewardship, the local community, and wellbeing of our employees all being key considerations in our decision-making processes.

Metro has also developed a comprehensive ESG Strategy and Roadmap for 2025-2026, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable development. Over the next two years, we are focused on achieving the key actions outlined in this plan, which will drive positive environmental and social impacts while enhancing governance practices. We are excited to embark on this journey, as we continue to strengthen our sustainability efforts and deliver lasting value to our stakeholders. The ESG Strategy and Roadmap can be downloaded at the tab under ESG downloads.

This page will be updated as Metro progresses its ESG journey.
