Community engagement

Managing impacts to local communities

Simply stated, the term “socioeconomic” refers to the collective social and economic effects that our activities can have on the people and communities where we work. We are sensitive to balancing local communities’ concerns with the desire for economic development. Our activities produce direct and indirect benefits to communities wherever we do business — an essential way is through the development of a globally competitive local workforce and local supply chain.
