IGO Interactive Annual Report 2019

Making a Difference is our reason for being, our purpose. Every single person in our business has made a difference this year. IGO is proud of its Corporate Giving program and how our people have each made a difference to the organisations we support. These activities give our employees a sense of pride and demonstrate IGO's genuine commitment to the community. We have a publicly stated and Board approved position on philanthropy as defined in the IGO Corporate Giving Standard (www.igo.com.au/site/ caring/community). This Standard for FY19 defined a budget allocation of 0.06% of the previous year’s total revenue. The Standard also defines target beneficiaries, being primarily charities and schools in our host communities. For FY20 the budget allocation has been increased to 0.075% of total revenue. In FY19, IGO’s Corporate Giving program made a difference to over 46 organisations and programs, with total payments of $478,606. In addition, many IGO employees took advantage of IGO’s Volunteer Leave Allowance that provides employees with up to two days paid leave per annum to assist with charitable causes. IGO employees are also able to make personal donations via IGO’s online workplace giving platform Good2Give where the Company will match the donation as per the Corporate Giving Standard. Details on some of the organisations and programs IGO has supported in FY19 are detailed here. Teach Learn Grow IGO has been supporting Teach Learn Grow (TLG) for over five years and continued its support with the 2018 Rural Tutoring Program. The program sees university students volunteer their time to tutor in remote schools. The program has had a hugely positive impact on the communities living in close proximity to our mine sites and we look forward to continuing to work with TLG in FY20 to improve educational outcomes for children in remote Western Australia. The schools visited during the program were Leonora District High School, Nulsen Primary School, East Kalgoorlie Primary School, Coolgardie Primary School and Norseman District High School. Norseman District High School Scitech delivered three all-staff professional learning workshops at Norseman District High School during the year, allowing teachers to develop an understanding of how to use the digital technologies and similar resources provided to them. Critical to the facilitation of all the workshops at Norseman DHS and Scitech’s ongoing provision of professional learning around WA, were the IGO funded iPads. Esperance Senior High School In December 2018, IGO ran a Work Experience Program at its Nova Operation for six Year-10 students to experience working life on an operating mine site. The program provided a real hands-on experience, with the students and teachers living on site and working 12-hour shifts with mentors from the Mining, Environmental and Engineering departments.
