Signatory Obligations

Commitment to the Framework brings with it a number of obligations. In summary, these are:

1. progressive implementation of the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) Principles and Elements;
2. public reporting of site level performance, on a minimum annual basis, with reporting metrics self-selected from the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the GRI Mining and Metals Sector Supplement or self-developed; and
3. assessment of the systems used to manage key operational risks (using either internal or external assessment as appropriate).
