The Royal Mint Explains its Sustainability Programme

The Royal Mint (TRM) presented on sustainability at the Mint Directors Conference Online this summer.

For TRM sustainability includes all topics relating to ‘Environment, Social and Governance’ (ESG), not just environmental sustainability. Inga Doak, TRM’s Head of Sustainability, laid out their four areas of focus.

TRM’s first area is to achieve a sustainable future. This covers environmental goals such as zero carbon, a circular economy, product and packaging development, resource management and responsible sourcing.

Second is enhancing their community. Third is making sure TRM is a great place to work by working on staff engagement, diversity, health and well-being, training and skills. Finally, integrating ESG into every aspect of the organisation from governance and reporting to its management systems, business ethics and industrial collaboration and leadership.
