商品簡介
Yakovleva (Cardiff U., UK) assesses the role of the mining industries in sustainable development, analyzes modern approaches to corporate social responsibility adopted by mining companies, and evaluates their policies and practices in the areas of environmental protection, health and safety, employee relations, and community development. The author examines current developments in the global gold and diamond industries, with specific reference to mining companies in a transition economy, the Russian Federation. The text also includes a detailed analysis of three models for community development in the mining industries. The book demonstrates that mining companies clearly recognize the importance of environment, health and safety, employee, and community issues and are starting to take systematic actions to mitigate negative impacts and address stakeholder concerns.
