Board and committees
Responsibility for our strategic approach to sustainability lies with the OZ Minerals Board. The Board strives to ensure that it is comprised of strongly performing individuals of utmost integrity whose complementary skills, experience, qualifications and personal characteristics are suited to OZ Minerals' needs.
OZ Minerals’ constitution provides for a minimum of three and a maximum of 15 directors. At the close of 2011, there were eight directors, including one female director. One new director was appointed in 2011. Apart from the Managing Director and CEO, all directors are independent non-executives.
To facilitate the execution of its responsibilities, the Board’s Committees provide a forum for a more detailed analysis of key issues. The current Board committees are the Audit Committee, Sustainability Committee and the Nomination and Remuneration Committee.
The Sustainability Committee’s role is to assist the Board in the effective oversight responsibilities in relation to safety, health, environment and community issues across OZ Minerals and the oversight of risks relating to these issues.
A profile of each Director, including their skills, experience, relevant expertise and special responsibilities is available in our 2011 Annual Report.
Senior management
Responsibility for OZ Minerals’ business processes and sustainability performance lies with the Managing Director and CEO supported by the Executive Committee and the executive management team. The Managing Director and CEO’s performance is measured against detailed key performance indicators (KPIs) relating to values and governance, economic and sustainability performance. This forms the basic remuneration and short-term incentives (STIs).
These KPIs cascade through to all of the CEO’s direct reports, whose performance is measured against KPIs relating to economic and sustainability performance within their particular area of responsibility.
All OZ Minerals’ general managers are accountable for values and governance, economic and sustainability performance within their particular area of responsibility.
