The recently published South African 2018 Mining Charter aims to find a middle ground by instilling investor confidence while simultaneously driving transformation.
Value Beyond Compliance
From a Deloitte perspective, we believe that mining companies have the opportunity to take the lead to bring the sector, government and society closer together and create shared value beyond the compliance agenda. Value beyond compliance is about the fundamental synergy between business performance and social progress in creating shared value. There are various ways in which our clients seek to generate shared value. In some cases, it means collaborating with other mining companies to bring government and communities on-board to jointly plan and deliver on socio-economic cluster priorities. In other cases, we work directly with our clients to develop and implement shared value strategies addressing stakeholder engagement, enterprise and supplier development, diversity and inclusion, regulatory environment and measuring impact.
