Our Business Responsible Inclusive Sustainable Enabling Appendix 9 intel.com/responsibility 2021-22 Corporate Responsibility Report Introduction Technology Industry Initiatives Building on the foundation of our operational and supply chain goals, we will work with the technology ecosystem to accelerate improvements across our industry. We know that we can go faster and be more effective working together. Click on the headers below for more details on our initiatives and progress. Responsible Inclusive Sustainable Responsible minerals. Expand our efforts beyond conflict minerals 1 to cover all minerals used in semiconductor manufacturing and apply the learnings to lead our industry in creating new sourcing standards. In 2021, we sent our first expanded minerals survey for aluminum, copper, nickel, and silver to suppliers contributing these materials in our Intel-manufactured microprocessors. This is an important step in our RISE strategy, as we begin mapping our supply chains for our highest priority minerals. Although sourcing of these minerals is not yet widely reported, we received a response from 89% of relevant suppliers. Additionally, we continue to partner with industry associations to ensure standards are in place to enable our ultimate goal of responsible sourcing for all the minerals in our supply chain. We will continue to identify the highest priority minerals in pursuit of our 2030 RISE Goals. Responsible mobility. Collaborate with our industry and ecosystem partners to advance the adoption of technology-neutral safety standards to reduce traffic accidents globally. Intel’s Mobileye business is a global leader in driving assistance and self-driving solutions. The company’s product portfolio employs a broad set of technologies covering computer vision and machine learning-based sensing, data analysis, for advanced driver assistance systems and autonomous vehicles (AVs). Mobileye technology helps keep the drivers and passengers of more than 100 million vehicles safer today. Intel’s Responsibility- Sensitive Safety (RSS) has become a leading model for global AV safety frameworks. Numerous standards bodies are beginning to include RSS in standards development activities. Inclusion Index. Drive full inclusion and accessibility across the technology industry by creating and implementing a Global Inclusion Index with common metrics to advance progress. In 2021, we launched the Alliance for Global Inclusion, a coalition focused on creating an inclusion index and working to collectively advance progress in four critical areas: leadership representation, inclusive language, inclusive product development, and STEM readiness in under- resourced communities. Since its launch, the Alliance has more than doubled in size, from five to 12 members, and has made meaningful progress on creating an Inclusion Index to serve as a benchmark for companies to track diversity and inclusion improvements, provide information on current best practices, and highlight opportunities to improve outcomes across industries. In December 2021, the Alliance published suggested guidance to secure diverse representation on boards of directors. Inclusive pipeline. Expand the inclusive pipeline of talent for our industry through innovative global education initiatives and STEM programs for girls and underrepresented groups. Building a diverse and inclusive workforce and industry requires continued collective investments and innovative approaches to increasing the diversity of the talent pipeline and expanding access to the education resources needed to pursue careers in our field. In 2021, we scaled a number of programs and collaborations with customers, governments, and other stakeholders to bridge the gender gap in STEM fields, including our work with Women in AI, a nonprofit working to empower women and minorities as AI and data experts, innovators, and leaders. In early 2021, we also pledged $5 million to North Carolina Central University, a historically Black college or university, to create a tech law and policy center. Sustainable manufacturing . Create a collective approach to reducing emissions for the semiconductor manufacturing industry and increase the use of technology to reduce climate impact in global manufacturing. In the 1990s, Intel led an initiative to eliminate the use of Class 1 ozone-depleting substances in semiconductor manufacturing. Our 2030 climate goals are informed by climate science, but due to our (and our industry’s) early emissions reductions and demand growth for semiconductors, it remains challenging to gain formal approval for a target under the existing methodology of the Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). In 2021, we continued to work with industry stakeholders to assess the potential for the development of a sector-specific approach to setting science-based GHG emissions-reduction targets for the semiconductor manufacturing industry. The goal is to expand the number of companies in our sector that set approved science-based targets. Sustainable chemistry. Enable greener and circular chemistry strategies across the technology industry value chain by transforming chemical footprint methodology. In 2021, Intel continued efforts to refine the chemical footprint methodology for use in evaluation of the chemical supply chain, as well as to integrate the methodology into the chemical supply chain to enable better assessment of full lifecycle impact. In addition, we continued to provide webinars to further the promotion of the chemical footprint methodology as a technology industry initiative. Sustainable chemistry baselines were completed for the current manufacturing technologies, as well as for the year 2020. We completed an initial analysis of the current chemical uses and those identified as the highest impact chemistries have been included within a set of priority projects to further scope and disposition. 1 Conflict minerals, as defined by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), is a broad term that means tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TG), regardless of whether these minerals finance conflict in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) or adjoining countries.
