Environmental record

Community impacts and the company response

2021–2025 · documented · high materiality

In 2022 VOD reported local Bunong concerns about loss of resin-tree income near Okvau and different views on the adequacy of payments. It also records benefits and Emerald’s response. Emerald’s 2025 report says compensation for affected households and resin collectors had concluded and reports a grievance mechanism. The accounts describe different issues and do not establish that all concerns were resolved.

Attribution: Role overlaps event; causation unproven. Cleary was quoted as operations manager; reporting does not establish individual responsibility for affected land or compensation.

Relevance: Community relations and social licence are relevant to Cambodian operations.
