Community and social performance are important to Lochard, and we are dedicated to our goal of strengthening communities through responsible business activities and meaningful contributions. We understand that strong and positive relationships with our community are key to a successful business.

Our approach to community is simple: we pride ourselves on “doing the right thing”.

The key elements of this approach are:

Protecting the people in our communities by upholding rigorous safety and ethical standards.

Minimising the impact of our operations on the community, and keeping them informed and engaged through a structured  stakeholder engagement program.

A targeted community investment and sponsorship program, which considers where we can make the best contribution.

Representing the people in our local communities by promoting diversity, equity and inclusion where possible.

Some key areas and initiatives relating to Community and Social Performance are outlined in more detail below.
