Approach

Our Approach to Sustainability 

As a leading coal producer, Peabody provides essential products for the production of steel and affordable, reliable energy.

At Peabody, sustainability is integrated into all facets of our business operations. The governing principles that guide our board enable the operational excellence, focused engagement and financial strength to meet these values.

We strive to be the coal producer of choice. This means creating superior value by delivering a diversity of products to support our customers’ needs, practicing operational excellence and championing sustainability. We believe that good safety, sustainability, human capital and governance practices drive strong business practices.

We regularly assess the needs and expectations of our customers, shareholders and broader stakeholder community to ensure our strategy effectively supports material risks and opportunities to our organization, to the environment and to society.

MATERIALITY ASSESSMENT
The topics considered throughout the assessment were guided by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB), the reporting standards established by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the guidelines outlined by the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), among other standards. Results are then integrated within our enterprise risk management system to build actionable performance goals and the processes that support this performance.

We continue to build and enhance programs in these strategic areas that mitigate risk, realize opportunity and measure performance. This approach encourages innovation, cultivates resilience and will drive the future success of our business.

Peabody is a signatory to the United Nations Global Compact, the world’s largest global corporate sustainability initiative, which provides a framework for sustainability. We continue our journey to incorporate the UN Global Compact and the UN Sustainable Development Goals into our strategy, culture and operations. We reaffirm our support of the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact in the areas of human rights, labor, environment and anti-corruption.
