Over the years, Polyus has made significant progress in embedding sustainability across our operations. As a major enterprise, we must work responsibly to ensure that Polyus continues to create value for all of our stakeholders. This involves a commitment to developing our employees and protecting the broader communities where we operate as well as the natural environment.

Documents and reports

The Water Report presents the Company’s comprehensive approach to water management, the assessment and management of water resource-related risks, as well as stakeholder-inclusive practices. The Report covers Polyus’ production assets that require a substantial quantity of water resources for their operations and which, therefore, are their major consumers. An important objective of this Report is to present the national statutory framework that Polyus is operating in, to describe its internal processes, controls and monitoring mechanisms attributed, among others, by national obligations, and international best standards and practices.
