Boliden has identified the following key challenges in working towards sustainable business development (in no particular order): ­ Securing tomorrow’s skill pool ­ Diversity and a more even gender distribution ­ Implementing the New Boliden Way ­ Creating a safe occupational health ­ Minimise emissions and discharges to air and water ­ Limiting the impact on the physical environment ­ Responsible waste management ­ A positive economic impact on the local community LIMITATIONS Some of the areas that need to be addressed are wholly or partly beyond our direct control, e.g. the way in which our business partners manage and work with environmental and safety issues or the available mix of electricity sources we use.
