Introduction
With the increasing and upsurging competition, it is seen that manufacturing organisations
have been facing cutthroat competition that are forced to generate maximum profits. When
MNCs operate in the environment with maximum potential tries to achieve goals and become
competitive blindly. Furthermore, with a flow it started engaging in several works, which are
not ethical. With an aim to rectify these issues, the concept of sustainability aims to focus on
long term focus on competiveness and blindness of the organisation. In the procedure of
affecting BHP for the long-term existence (Nicholas, and Sacco, 2017).
The companies have to engage in activities, which is not ethical and it is important to rectify
the issues. From this, the organisation has received the importance of financial and
environmental impact, which is laid down in the importance of sustainable business actions
(Chen, Hung, and Wang, 2018). CSR and sustainability perspective will be considered
because of the government imposition and strict regulations. CSR improves the society by
enforcing to donate money, create environmental friendly policies, health safety, and also
human rights. The report applies several theories such as Carroll pyramid, GRI reporting, and
Stakeholder`s approach to analyse the sustainability issues based on economic, environmental
and social perspectives (Bögel, 2019).
Overview of BHP Billiton
BHP Billiton is a trading entity of BHP limited, which deals in multinational mining, metal,
and mining operations in Australia. The employee base of company is 72000. The company
is the largest producer of mining items such as nickel, uranium, iron ore, copper, manganese,
and titanium over 25 nations (BHP Billiton, 2018).

Analysis and evaluation of CSR
Explanation of CSR work of the organisation
CSR is the responsibility of the organisational action on moral, communal, economic, and
environmental issues. CSR has to actively coordinate and integrate social, economic, and
other human right activities to reflect organisation, and international values to reap the
advantages of operations and create goodwill at place where it operates (Böcker, and Meelen,
2016). It is quite complex to maintain considerable social and environmental enforcement in
relation to the environmental issues. Mining affects the entire ecosystem by exploitation as it
creates lack of considerable CSR practises (Muñoz, and Cohen, 2018). Furthermore, mining
sector has been inclined to conduct the code of ethics. Management aims to reduce the effect
on local community as services, facilities, and social profiling with the direct action and
collaborating governmental and non-governmental institutes (Böcker, and Meelen, 2016).
Sustainability is important factor when it comes to manufacturing organisation. BHP
Billiton’s is defined by the triple bottom line theory, which manages financial, social risks,
opportunities, obligations, and environment (Muñoz, and Cohen, 2018). With a focus on
manufacturing sustainability, it is seen that CSR is valued as the priority with the
environment protection. For example- replacing the electric bulb with the energy efficient,
which will last three times more than electric bulb saving the electric energy (Ehie, 2016).
Increasing CSR issues has become major concern in mining industry due to huge awareness
of unethical practises. BHP faces several challenges in accomplishing environmental
compliances such as improving and minimising the environmental effect, enhancing
performance, managing risks, complying with the regulatory reports needs and finally
addressing the sustainability issues. BHP Billiton has to define and address several risks as
being stated that the compliance have “zero tolerance” to prevent the misconduct such as
child labour, forced compulsory workforce, treatment of employees, workforce living wages,
