Introduction
Corporate Social Responsibility is an important aspect which is required to be focused
upon so that the organisation can ensure its long-term growth within the industry. The
organisations undertake various practices through which they can identify the challenges and
issues within the issues and can effectively strategies to eliminate such issues and challenges
so that the strategic goal can be achieved along with ensuring the achievement of the social
goals within the industry. The customers within the industry prefer the organisation that is
focused on the development of the society along with the organisation profitability and
results in the increased market share for the organisation (Wang, Tong, Takeuchi, & George,
2016).
The analysis is focused on analysing the impact of the Scotbar’s practices over the
social responsibility in the mining industry. The organisation was established with a focus of
creating value for the society along with ensuring the growth of the organisation in the long
run. The analysis effectively focuses on the practices and measures adopted by the
organisation to ensure sustainable development and its impact within the industry.
Scotbar Sustainable Mining practices
The mining industry is focused on the profitability and the extraction of resources
without focusing on the future availability or the result of the mining practices conducted by
them. They were focused on utilising only 10-20% of the extracted material and leaving the
rest as a scrap material from the production. The sustainable practices within the organisation
require that the management focus on the efficient utilisation of the resources and achieve
profitability along with focusing on environmental development as the responsibility of the
organisation. As the industry is dependent on the availability of the raw materials from the
environment, therefore it is required that they focus on such practices to protect the
environment (Carvalho, 2017)
Scotbar CEO Allan Payne effective focused on recognising the sustainability issues
within the industry and focused on setting up of sustainable goal for the organisation that was
focused on the 100% utilisation of the resources available. The goal achievement was a time
consuming as well as the costly process but the organisation was more focused on being
environmentally responsible rather than being profitable within the industry. The organisation
focused on producing construction sands from the scar which was traditionally not preferred
