Report Highlights

On June 24, 2015, Goldcorp released its 2014 Sustainability Report (http://csr.goldcorp.com), which provides detailed insights into the Company’s economic, environmental, and social performance, as well as its commitment to responsible mining and sustainability excellence.

“We believe transparency is fundamental to building and maintaining trust amongst the people and communities affected by our operations, and our sustainability report is just one of the tools we use to demonstrate that commitment,” said Brent Bergeron, Goldcorp Executive Vice President, Corporate Affairs and Sustainability. “Our annual Sustainability Report is a valuable opportunity to engage our stakeholders on our sustainability performance with the aim of improving the relevance, accessibility and transparency of our reporting and ultimately, drives our performance on an ongoing basis.”

Performance highlights from the 2014 report include:

- Achieved zero workplace fatalities, Goldcorp’s number one corporate objective.

- Rolled out Goldcorp’s Sustainability Excellence Management System (SEMS), which provides an integrated platform for delivering on, and measuring the impact of, the Company’s sustainability commitments and objectives.

- Enhanced stakeholder partnerships by signing two agreements with First Nations communities and joining the Mining Association of Canada and the World Economic Forum.

- Became a signatory to the Catalyst Accord, an initiative that encourages diversity and the inclusion of women on boards of directors.

- Developed the Tailings Stewardship Strategy, which sets best practice standards that complement government regulations.

- Contributed approximately $62 million in community contributions through community investments, donations, sponsorships, infrastructure investments, and collaborative agreements.

The 2014 Sustainability Report is the product of improved integration of sustainability issues with other business drivers and features four new components: expanded sustainability targets, synthesized achievements and challenges faced during the reporting period, improved information on strategy and management approaches, and improvements to formatting so that readers can access information in different ways.

The report is independently assured and follows the requirements of the Global Reporting Initiative, the United Nations Global Compact, and the International Council on Mining and Metals. It is available at http://csr.goldcorp.com and as a downloadable PDF.

Over the years, Goldcorp has also been recognized for its achievements in corporate social responsibility and sustainability by NASDAQ, Sustainalytics, Dow Jones, Randstad, YWCA, Mexican Centre for Philanthropy and Alliance for Corporate Social Responsibility and the Canadian Land Reclamation Association.

Goldcorp is one of the world’s fastest growing gold producers.  Its low-cost gold production is located in safe jurisdictions in the Americas and remains 100% unhedged.
