Company report
Summary Results
Coal India’s strongest performances are found in Business Conduct and Working Conditions. In Business Conduct, the company’s performance is driven mostly by its commitment to prevent bribery and corruption as well as its assignment of senior management responsibilities and accountabilities to carry out this commitment. In Working Conditions, the company’s performance stems from its attention to occupational health and safety. Coal India has formalised its commitment to provide safe and healthy working conditions, and has assigned responsibility and accountability within senior management as well as providing resources to carry out this commitment. The company also shows some evidence of systematically tracking and reviewing of its performance on occupational health and safety.
While Coal India does not rank among the ten strongest performing companies for any thematic area, its result on one indicator sets it among the two best performing companies for this topic, namely the management of noise and vibration impacts. The company has systems in place to ensure its operations regularly assess the noise and vibration levels generated by their activities, and develop strategies to reduce these impacts.
However, Coal India’s overall results are limited by a relative lack of evidence on Economic Development and Community Wellbeing; this includes a lack of evidence of developing procurement opportunities for producing country suppliers beyond those located near its mine sites, and a lack of evidence of systematic action on human rights issues. While the company has made some level of commitment to respect human rights, it shows no evidence of undertaking human rights due diligence or reporting on its management of human rights issues.
The maximum value of 1.000 represents the aggregation of best scores achieved for all indicators in a given thematic area, taking into account all companies’ results. As the aggregate best score varies from one area to another, these charts cannot be used to compare company performances across different areas.
All company results are based on public domain data that have been sourced by RMI analysts or provided by companies. In the case of a few companies, very little information was available. It is important to note that a low score may only reflect a lack of relevant information in the company’s publicly available documentation.

The RMI seeks evidence of companies’ policies and practices on economic, environmental, social and governance (EESG) issues, but does not seek to measure the actual outcomes achieved on EESG issues. Results are based only on evidence sourced from the public domain or provided by companies as open data. Whilst this information is believed to be reliable, no guarantee can be given that it is accurate or complete, nor does it preclude the possibility that policies and practices may exist, but which the RMI has not been able to consider for purposes of assessment. In this respect, the results of the low-scoring companies do not necessarily reflect a lack of relevant policies and practices; as they may be due to a lack of public reporting by the companies, limitations in accessing information, and/or any difficulties in accessing the RMI company portal.
It should be noted that, prior to publication, all companies in the Index were invited to check the factual accuracy of the contextual data and evidence upon which the Index is based and to review company information in the RMI document library.
