MESSAGES

MESSAGE FROM MANAGING DIRECTOR As a global organisation that operates in Australia, it is imperative we contribute to and have a positive influence on reconciliation with First Nation Australians. At Sandvik, we are committed to working together and continuing relationships with First Nation’s people, communities and organisations to create a reconciled Australia which appreciates the language, stories and traditions of it’s First Peoples.

I’m extremely proud of the progress we have made in the last 12 months in support of our Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) commitments. Our RAP has already influenced change within the organisation and the communities in which we work, through sponsorships, cultural awareness training, production of merchandise and more. To date, we have completed 39% of our targets, with another 30% on track to be completed within the designated timeline. Unfortunately, due to COVID some of our deliverables were impacted, but we have strategies to ensure these are achieved with the conclustion of our Innovate RAP. This is to the credit of our Sandvik employees who have whole heartedly supported our commitment to reconciliation. We first commenced our reconciliation journey in 2017 with our Reflect RAP. Since then, we have made significant progress on our journey and are proud of the steps we have made and note there is still a way to go. We will continue to work with and listen to First Nation’s people, communities and organisations to deepen our knowledge and understanding of our shared histor y. We are committed to reconciliation and will continue to deliver on our commitments, in line with our RAP. More than a word. Reconciliation takes action.

MESSAGES

MESSAGE FROM COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND INDIGENOUS PARTICIPATION ADVISOR I am pleased to introduce our 2021 Innovate RAP Progress Report which details how we have tracked with our commitments in the last year. Over the past 12 months, Sandvik have developed multiple initiatives, sponsorships and relationships with First Nation’s people and organisations. This has positively impacted our company’s knowledge, skills and cultural understanding of First Nation Australians throughout our global organisation. This is clear through Sandvik staff wearing their RAP polo’s proudly all over the world, self-enrolling in cultural awareness courses and participating in First Nation’s events. It fills me with pride to work for an organisation who is genuinely committed to reconciliation and is willing to listen, learn and grow on this journey. We are proud of the progress we are making in all aspects of our RAP and look for ward to continuing to deliver on our commitments.

OUR INNOVATE RAP ACHIEVEMENTS

The 2021 Sandvik Progress Report (progress report) provides information on how we have tracked against our 2020-2022 Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) commitments, between 1 October 2020 and 30 September 2021.

Sandvik is committed to using engineering and innovation to make the shift towards more sustainable business. Integrating sustainability into our business model and ways of working creates value for all stakeholders: customers, employees, shareholders, but most importantly – society. As part of our commitment to sustainability, we view it as imperative to develop and maintain meaningful relationships in the communities in which we work.

Reconciliation with First Nations Australians is a key priority for our business and a journey we are proud to be part of. Over the past 12 months, we have made great strides against our Innovate RAP commitments.Our Innovate RAP has 64 deliverables aligned to 16 actions.

The ongoing effects of COVID-19 are still clear in 2021, within the community, our company and the world. As a result, we had to make the shift and pivot on various commitments to ensure we would still be able to deliver. We were able to host internal events and meetings online however, significant impacts on external engagement with the community and our customers were still seen. During 2021, there were some role changes in the organisation and the transition period slightly impeded on our RAP. The seven deliverables that are delayed were unfortunately impacted due to the transition between employees within the Community Engagement and Indigenous Participation Advisor role; however, there are strategies in place to ensure deliverables are still achieved with the conclusion of our Innovate RAP. Our progress against each deliverable is detailed in this report.

HIGHLIGHTS Partnering with Indigenous business (Yakeen Safety)

In July 2021, we of ficially onboarded our first Major National

Indigenous Supplier Agreement, in line with our RAP deliverables. Yakeen Safet y provides personal protective equipment clothing

requirements for all divisions across Australia. This initiative alone has increased our spend significantly on Indigenous businesses.

Making the shift with our RAP merchandise (Geared Up Culcha)

We par tnered with Indigenous promotional products supplier,

Geared Up Culcha, to design and produce Sandvik merchandise with

our RAP ar t work. This was an impor tant shif t to make, and we are proud our RAP merchandise is now produced by an Indigenous supplier.

Supporting communities in which we operate (YPA)

Over the past t welve months we have continued to suppor t communit y led initiatives, including the Young People Ahead ( YPA) Learner Driver Program in Mount Isa. We note, a main barrier to obtaining a job in the

mines is the requirement of a drivers license. Through this initiative we have suppor ted over 10 young people earn their driver’s license.

Increasing cultural awareness and understanding (Mirri Mirri Productions).

I n 2021, Sandvik par tnered up with Mirri Mirri Productions to deliver cultural awareness training to staf f. Mirri Mirri Productions provide a three hour session to assist Sandvik staf f build their knowledge of First Nation Australian

cultures and heritage. To date, Mirri Mirri Productions have delivered

RELATIONSHIPS

Building strong relationships between First Nation Australians and non-Indigenous peoples is important to Sandvik and our core business.

Through maintaining and continually creating connections and partnerships, we build and expand the body of knowledge for creating change. Allowing us to advance ideas that benefit the world and in the spirit of reconciliation we work together to collaborate and nurture these ideas. With the Sandvik Group being a global company, we have opened the question to other Sandvik global locations as to their relationships with their respective First Nations people. Building and maintaining respectful and sustainable relationships with First Nation Australians is core to our values and the way we do business. It enables Sandvik to better understand the needs and aspirations of First Nation Australians, and to encourage them to consider Sandvik as an employer of choice. In 2020, we were proud to launch our Innovate RAP with an event. The launch ceremony commenced with a Welcome to Country and smoking ceremony by Shannon Ruska, a bloodline descendant of the Yuggera, Turrbal, Nunukul, Gorenpul/Cooperoo and Yugembir nations.

On 1 September 2021, Sandvik came together to celebrate Indigenous Literacy Day to raise awareness and improve the literacy of First Nation Australians in remote communities. Sandvik Australia staff donated over 280 books to the Australian Literacy and Numeracy Foundation through their Share-A-Book initiative. This initiative provides new and quality pre-loved books to Indigenous, refugee and marginalised communities in need of resources. Additionally, we donated $5,000AUD to the Indigenous Literacy Foundation. This money went towards the purchase of culturally relevant books for First Nation’s children in remote Australian communities.
