Engaging with local communities
Last updated Nov 2026
Metso is committed to being socially accountable in the areas where it operates. We have various corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs ongoing around the world. We recognize that our business operations have impacts on all aspects of society, including economic, social, and environmental, and we have implemented various CSR programs that are managed and sponsored by our local organizations. Guided by our mission and values, we collaborate with local organizations to create meaningful impact. Read more about the projects via the links below.

To complement the corporate level CSR programs, we also have Metso volunteers program. Metso employees have a strong wish to do good and to have a positive influence on the surrounding communities where we are operating. Metso volunteers program is based on a policy that allows all our employees to use up to three hours of work time in a year for volunteer activities. 

The goal of the program is to set up local volunteer projects around the world where our employees can donate their time and engage in volunteer activities. The projects are led by local coordinators. Currently, several volunteer activities are taking place in different countries, for example in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China and South Africa.
