Compliance
EICC code of conduct
TI is required to disclose specific supply-chain management practices and performance to comply with two U.S.-based laws: the California Transparency and Supply Chains Act and the U.S. Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. TI also recently joined the Electronic Industry Citizenship Coalition (EICC), which focuses on responsible supply chain management, and voluntary complies with its code of conduct.
Complying with new laws and standards required TI to make significant monetary investments in 2011 for dues, subscriber fees and process changes, as well as additional staff resources. In addition to regulations, TI is working to better understand and address additional customer expectations, which could affect current internal manufacturing processes and controls as well.
Our key compliance activities for the year were in response to:
EICC code of conduct
Throughout our 80+ year journey as a high-tech company, TI has enjoyed a great reputation as being ethical and socially and environmentally responsible. We will use the EICC code of conduct as a tool to continue to align and adopt best practices and processes within our industry and will encourage our first-tier suppliers to do the same. More information is included in our public announcement and letter of support.
