Our policies
Our corporate responsibility business principles commit us to act ethically, protect the environment and create an inclusive, safe and healthy work environment. They commit us to support the communities around our operations, create economic benefits, choose suppliers that comply with the law and treat employees fairly and with respect.

Management
Our corporate responsibility council, comprising representatives from key businesses functions, coordinates corporate responsibility activities at Motorola. The council determines which issues are important to Motorola, establishes performance indicators and sets goals for improvements. The council also has oversight of engaging thought leaders and reporting to stakeholders.

Motorola operates an environment, health and safety management system. Progress and key issues are reported to the board of directors periodically. We also have a product stewardship committee to reduce the environmental impact of our products throughout their life cycles.

How we measure performance
Motorola has established metrics in several areas of corporate responsibility. We continue to evolve these and to improve the data collection systems that support them. To determine the appropriate metrics, we have referred to the Global Reporting Initiative guidelines, other company reports, the findings of stakeholder engagement and best practice in reporting.

Internal communication
Motorola promotes corporate responsibility to employees through communication channels including our intranet, weekly e-newsletters, employee meetings and internal TV and audio channels. We announce the publication of our report each year, highlighting metrics and achievements.
