Custom Reporting
How Does Custom Reporting Work?
There are two ways to create your custom Molson Coors corporate responsibility report. You can browse the Responsibility section of our website and select Add to My Report for topics that interest you; or, you can go to our custom report builder (link to report builder page) and check the box next to each topic to prepare a report built just for you.
Environmental
Stewardship
Local Impact
We believe that good business practices embrace environmental stewardship. For that reason, we work to manufacture and package our products with care for the environment.
Water is an area of focus for us because access to water is critical to the craft of brewing. With more than 350 years of combined brewing heritage in the US, Canada, and the U.K. we have experience developing and implementing solutions for water use and conservation in our breweries and local watersheds. In 2009, we established a global water strategy to drive our commitment in water stewardship deeper into the business. This year, we will be reviewing our water use as part of broader watershed assessments at each of our breweries.
Molson Coors is a lead sponsor for Carbon Disclosure Project’s Water Disclosure. It will provide critical water-related data from the world’s largest companies to inform the global market place on investment risk and commercial opportunity. This data will provide insight into corporate water strategies and will be used to help drive investment towards sustainable water use.
Global Systems
Adopted in 2005, our Quality, Environmental, Health & Safety Policy implemented an Environmental, Health and Safety Management System (EMS) across our global operations. This system is designed to:
- Assure the quality and safety of all brands manufactured by Molson Coors.
- Reduce environmental impact and prevent pollution.
- Prevent employee injury and illness.
- Comply with all applicable legislation and other requirements to which we subscribe.
Our management system and all manufacturing sites in the UK are ISO 14001 certified.
Environmental Performance
For the third year we have had our environmental data verified by a third party. This year’s assurance was performed against ISAE 3000, the internationally recognized standard. As part of the assurance the EMS in each region was reviewed. See Our Assurance section for more details and for the 2011 Assurance Statement.
We are showing a positive trend in our environmental impact in 2010. Highlights include:

Environmental Compliance
The company maintains a global compliance team that includes technical compliance managers and Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) managers from each regional business. This Global Technical Compliance Team is responsible for insuring that company standards are defined, monitored and achieved. The Global Technical Compliance Team conducts regular audits to monitor and ensure compliance. Updates of any critical issues are reported to the senior EHS committees and as appropriate, audit reports and the accompanying Corrective Action Reports are shared with the Global Chief Supply Chain Officer and recorded in our document management system.
It is a requirement under UK Law (Pollution Prevention and Control Regulations 1999) that permitted sites must notify the UK Environment Agency (Government Regulator) of abnormal emissions. The requirement in Canada is less stringent and reporting requirements are typically mandated by permit violations and hazardous substance release regulations. In 2010 Molson Coors UK reported 15 incidents to the regulator against a target of 18 for the year. In 2009 21 incidents were reported against a target of 24.
For each of these notifications there is a rigorous corrective action plan. The regional Board is also notified of any incidents on a weekly basis by the EHS team.
Molson Coors Canada had no fines or prosecutions in 2009 or for 2010. Molson Coors Canada does have some challenges to meet municipal wastewater requirements in a couple of brewery locations. A task force has been set up to identify possible solutions which include possible reduction at source initiatives, waste water diversion initiatives and onsite treatment.
