Peabody and the community |
|
The
communities in which we operate are critical to the successful management of
our mines and the welfare of our employees. We take a proactive approach to
communicating with community groups and we support their efforts to improve local
facilities and services.
Our
sponsorship program is aligned with our corporate objectives and strategies,
and broadly encompasses five categories:
- Community projects in the regions where we operate,
such as local festivals and shows, school sports and infrastructure
- Environmental awareness through local environmental
groups
- Education and training such as trade programs in
local schools and graduate programs
- Youth development in areas of arts, sport, health
and safety
- Employee involvement in the regions in which we
operate.
In
addition to financial support at a corporate level, our employees contribute
their time, energy and skills to a range of community projects.
