Performance Data

We want to be transparent about how we are tracking our sustainability commitments. We rely on year-over-year data to help measure our performance. We report this data using the internationally recognized Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) reporting framework. 

The data points reported are ones that are critical to our business and important to our stakeholders. For more information about how we manage each of these areas, read our management approaches. All data tables can be downloaded here.

    (1) 2023-2024 decrease in coke usage due to higher quality of coke from supplier and longer run times of the blast furnace as it consumes more coke at start-up.
    (2) 2025 production at Resource Recycling shifted to blast furnace production due to battery shortage, driving coke usage up and propane and electricity usage down.
    (3) 2025 lower production tonnage in the mines decreased explosive and electricity usage.
    (4) 2025 production at FPI shifted to more energy intensive castings.
    (5) SEMO realized some fuel efficiency from 2025 mining locations, but overall less usage tied to lower production.

Health and Safety Performance

  • 403-1 (LA6) Occupational Safety and Health

    Employee Blood-Lead Average

    The adjusted Occupational Health and Safety Administration’s (OSHA) standard for medical reassignment of an employee is 53 micrograms of lead per deciliter of whole blood (“μg/dL”).(1) Doe Run has reduced its medical reassignment maximum limit to 25μg/dL. If any Doe Run employee has a blood-lead level that reaches 25 μg/dL, they are temporarily reassigned to duties with lower exposures to lead.

    Doe Run monitors and reports the number of employees with a blood-lead level greater than 19 μg/dL in the calendar year. The adjusted OSHA standard for medical reassignment of an employee is 53 μg/dL.(1) Doe Run sets its maximum limit at 25 μg/dL. If any Doe Run employee has a blood-lead level that reaches 25 μg/dL, they are temporarily reassigned to duties with lower exposures to lead.

    Total Lost-Time Accidents and Fatalities

    According to OSHA, lost time is defined as a nonfatal traumatic injury that causes any loss of time from work beyond the day or shift it occurred, or a nonfatal nontraumatic illness/disease that causes disability at any time. According to the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA), lost time is defined as days which the employee would have worked, but could not because of an occupational injury or an occupational illness. A fatality is not counted as a lost-time accident.

    Total Case Incident Rate (TCIR)

    TCIR is the number of OSHA recordable and MSHA reportable incidents per 200,000 personnel hours worked. OSHA recordables and MSHA reportables are incidents that require lost time, restricted duty, prescription medication, involve broken bones or stitches, involve imbedded matter in the eye, or burns of a defined size and severity.
