Strategic pillar 2: ESG
Build on our leading commitment to ESG
Sustainability has long been part of Gold Fields' way of doing business, and we have sought to integrate ESG into the operational management of our operations. We aim to take care of the environment while we mine, create value for our stakeholders, meaningfully invest in our host communities and adhere to the highest ethical standards.

Host communities
Gold Fields' approach to enterprise risk management (ERM) is based on the requirements of King IVTM, the South African Corporate Governance Code of Conduct and ISO 31000, the international guideline on risk management.
Governments
Host governments are among Gold Fields' most important stakeholders, as they issue mining licences, develop state policies and enforce regulations.
Environmental stewardship
Gold Fields is committed to sound environmental stewardship. We aim to use the natural resources our business depends on responsibly, care for the environment in our operational and surrounding areas and limit the impact of our operations on our host communities.
