We adhere to Vedanta's Sustainability Framework (VSF) which comprises comprehensive policies, standards and guidance notes to install systems thinking and process-oriented approaches to manage environmental impacts. Our targets related to environmental material issues have been developed and disclosed to all key stakeholders including the community, and performance is reviewed and reported annually.
We go beyond simply meeting current regulatory standards to embrace a philosophy of rejuvenating the environment. This proactive strategy of nurturing the environment has been laid on the foundation of three pillars:
Our environmental policies are in place and drive strategy to meet our commitments. We partner with the communities, governments and other organisations to
accelerate action, increase knowledge sharing and achieve milestones of our sustainability roadmap.
Our focus areas
in the reporting period
We report and record environmental incidents and hazards in the online Incident Management portal. Incident investigations are undertaken to identify and implement appropriate preventive and remediation measures. During the year based on the actual impacts of environmental incidents, there were no high potential (Category 4 & 5) environmental incidents.
During the reporting year there have been no significant monetary or non-monetary fines for non-compliance with environmental laws and regulations.
