Our Sustainability Approach

At PT Vale, sustainability is not viewed as a destination, but as a continuous journey of improvement, reflection, and renewal.

PT Vale Approach in Sustainability

We adopt double materiality to review sustainability from two key perspectives; Impact Materiality and Financial Materiality. Through the process, we have identified 18 sustainability related topics that are critical to PT Vale’s operations.

These findings will serve as a foundation for formulating policies, establishing sustainability targets, and designing strategic programs that align with our long-term vision.

Sustainability Governance

The Sustainability Function is responsible for PTVI’s sustainability strategy and approach, including managing our environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance data and reporting.

Sustainability issues are addressed through formal governance mechanisms to ensure alignment between corporate strategy, risk management, regulatory compliance, and long-term value creation. The Board of Directors, along with its Sustainability Committee, actively monitors sustainability impacts, risks, and opportunities as part of the overall corporate governance framework. The Audit Committee of the Board of Commissioners also review sustainability issues on an annual basis.

Double Materiality

We engaged with employees and unions, local NGOs and communities, regulators, investors, business partners, and the media to consolidate our priority issues. We also assessed our current position on each topic compared to similar industry players locally and globally.
