TI issues its 2007 Corporate Citizenship Report
|
The Texas Instruments 2007 Corporate Citizenship
Report (CCR), which details the company's social
and environmental performance, reinforces its continued
commitment to sustainability, and highlights 2007
accomplishments and progress, is now available online.
"TI's commitment to building a better future shapes our approach
to everything we do," said Rich Templeton, TI chairman, president and CEO. "Throughout
our company's history, we have remained steadfast in our determination
to deliver both profitability and sustainability by being responsible in our
operations and treating our customers, employees, communities and environment
with respect."
The report addresses key areas of corporate social
responsibility, including:
• TI's strides
in environmental stewardship and product design. TI analog and embedded
processing technology is helping solve some of today's
most difficult energy challenges. Through TI technology,
customers are achieving innovative breakthroughs,
such as exceeding energy-efficiency guidelines and
developing clean energy technology.
• The company's contributions to educational
excellence, helping stimulate technological advancement,
workforce development and business growth. TI provided more than $9.4 million in grants to education research and programs in 2007 and established new partnerships with universities in China, India and Ghana.
• TI's philanthropic achievements, driven by the belief that the company's success is tied to the strength of the communities where employees live and work.
In 2007, in countries as geographically distant as China, India, U.S. and the Philippines, TI and its employees donated significant time and nearly $20 million to various civic, business, and health and human services programs.
"Looking ahead, we will aim to replicate successful programs – in every facet of our operations – in TI communities across the globe," Templeton said. "We will continue to expand energy conservation measures, evolve community involvement and philanthropic strategies, and push forward on our wellness and workforce development initiatives."
