Sensata Technologies Releases First Sustainability Report with Commitments to DE&I, Energy & Emissions and Responsible Sourcing Goals
Sensata Technologies (NYSE: ST), today announced it has published its first Sustainability Report, which shares the company's environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategies, performance and goals that support its vision of creating a cleaner, more efficient, electrified and connected world.
The report includes the results of an initial materiality assessment for ESG risks and has been informed by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).
Sensata's sustainability efforts focus on four key areas it will prioritize and measure progress on:
Empowering its Workforce: Sensata promotes a culture that values inclusion and diversity and prioritizes employee well-being and safety, while supporting our communities and suppliers.
Innovating for Sustainability: Sensata develops products and technology solutions that help create a safer, cleaner, more efficient and connected world.
Protecting the Environment: Sensata focuses on building products that reduce environmental impact and improve technological efficiencies while optimizing and reducing its operational footprint through energy, water and waste reduction.
Operating Responsibly: Sensata considers transparency and accountability as table stakes in everything that it does, guiding its approach to governance, risk management and ESG.
"As stewards of Sensata and our collective environment, we must leave our company and the world better than the way we found it," said Sensata Technologies CEO and President, Jeff Cote."With our innovative products and people driving this charge, I have no doubt that Sensata will continue to chart the way forward toward a safer, cleaner and sustainable world for the next century."
In 2020-2021, Sensata conducted a materiality assessment to identify the ESG issues that were most important to its business and stakeholders and the following three key material issues and corresponding goals were set:
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion:
Reach 30% female representation in manager and above roles worldwide by 2026
Reach 25% racial/ethnic diverse representation in manager and above roles in the U.S. by 2026
Energy and Emissions:
Achieve carbon neutrality by 2050
Reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity by 10% by 2026
Responsible Sourcing:
Achieve 75% response rate on its responsible sourcing campaigns by 2026
Achieve 100% sourcing of conflict minerals and Cobalt from smelters that are conformant with the Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) or equivalent standard by 2026
Noting the goals defined in the report, Yann Etienvre, Chief Supply Chain Officer, said "Our goals are new, but the work is not. We have been working on reducing our carbon footprint for several years. Our European headquarters is already a BREEAM-certified building; and we have significantly reduced waste-water throughout our factories globally. The priorities and goals we identified in our inaugural report are aggressive yet attainable and aligned with those UN Sustainable Development goals (UNSDGs) we believe we can make the most impact on."
