#Our approach to responsible environment management

We integrate environmental considerations into all business decisions and set ambitious goals to drive continual improvement. 

We empower our people to innovate, collaborate and develop creative solutions to achieve leading environmental outcomes. 

We use technology-based solutions to address environmental challenges and enhance our environmental performance.

Thiess' ISO14001 certified Environmental Management System (EMS) provides consistency in how we plan, implement and review activities to achieve agreed environmental objectives. 

Each Thiess site implements a site-specific Environmental Management Plan to ensure EMS compliance and continuous improvement in environmental performance.

In 2024, Thiess recycled or reused 47% of our waste, 20% of our electricity originated from renewable sources, and together with our sister companies MACA and RTL, Thiess rehabilitated 818 hectares of post-mining land.
