Abstract

Alcoa is applying its state-of-the-art corporate environmental management systems to its aluminum extraction and manufacturing operations, business units, and subsidiaries around the world . The suc- cess of Alcoa's global environmental management system depends on top management commitment and accountability, clear environmental policies and verifiable targets, corporate support and assistance as well as recognition and rewards for business units achieving excellence . Responding to investor demands to reduce environmental impact, Alcoa's leaders saw the opportunity in the early 1990s to take a leader- ship position on environment, health, and safety issues within the industry.
