Covia has placed increased focus on improving the quality and reliability of the safety data it tracks at the site level by implementing advanced reporting and measurement capabilities. Safety and health performance is tracked in multiple ways, including using a scorecard featuring standard injury statistics and carefully documenting leading indicators. Covia’s key safety metrics are available on its intranet and updated regularly, demonstrating the commitment to safety engagement and performance transparency.
The Safety Performance Scorecard is updated monthly and shared quarterly with the entire organization. It provides a snapshot of our performance against KPIs and internal targets, serving as a valuable tool for driving continued safety and accountability.
Covia is equally committed to tracking and reporting on additional Leading Indicator KPIs. In the spirit of continuous improvement, employees are encouraged to report incidents, near-misses, and concerns, and are committed to completing dust sampling and in-field safety evaluations on time. Meeting or exceeding KPI targets in these areas is the goal each year.

At Covia, we are committed to being more than just a leading provider of high-performance mineral and material solutions – we believe that our company can make a positive difference in the world. This belief is what drives our environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategy, which is influenced by both our journey as an organization and the events in the world around us.
Our commitment to operating as a responsible corporate citizen has been embedded into every aspect of our business for decades and serves as the foundation for Covia’s ESG initiatives. From our operations to our Team Members and the communities in which we live and work, we continue to define WHAT WE’RE MADE OF as more than the materials we produce, but the impact we can make in every interaction.
In 2021, we enhanced our approach toward accelerating ESG performance by developing our formal GOALS THAT INSPIRE: ESG 2030. These 10 goals, broken into our three core areas - Environmental Stewardship, Positive Social Impact and Responsible Governance & Ethics - were developed by Covia Team members across the company and are designed to drive tangible and measurable progress in areas where we can make the most impact.
