Bettercoal PROGRAMME members
Bettercoal Programme members are businesses in the coal sector that want to ensure the coal producers they engage with are working to the highest possible standards - those of the Bettercoal Code.
The Bettercoal Programme and its members work to encourage increasing numbers of coal producers, from across the globe, to commit to the Bettercoal Code and so increase the network of businesses working towards a global, responsible coal supply chain.

MEMBERS’ Implementation
and Reporting Obligation (MIRO)
The Members’ Implementation and Reporting Obligations (MIRO) aim to monitor how the Bettercoal Programme’s Regular Members are implementing their obligations and to disclose to stakeholders how the Bettercoal Programme is progressing in positively impacting the coal supply chain.
MIRO EVOLUTION
In 2018, the Board of Directors approved a new MIRO scorecard aimed at increasing the level of disclosure to stakeholders on how Members use the data from the Bettercoal Assessment in their due diligence processes and purchasing decisions.
The MIRO is on its third iteration and the definition of a Bettercoal Supplier has evolved. In 2015-2017 this meant a Supplier who has conducted at minimum a self-assessment against the Bettercoal Code. Since 2018, this means a Supplier who has conducted a full Bettercoal Assessment including a Site-Assessment.
BETTERCOAL MEMBERS PURCHASES OF BETTERCOAL COAL AS PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL PURCHASES
The Bettercoal Programme works closely with its Members to encourage more of their coal suppliers to join the Bettercoal Programme’s assessment process and commit to working towards our Bettercoal Code.
Every year, since 2015, we have monitored the volume of coal that our Members have purchased from Bettercoal Programme committed producers, and compared this to the total volume of coal they purchased in that same year. The aim is to see the volume of coal purchased through Bettercoal Producers increase each year.
