ISO 14001
We and our customers expect that suppliers of OSRAM Opto Semiconductors have an environmental management system according to ISO 14001.

OSRAM Index List Environment
All OSRAM products are made using environmentally friendly methods of production. OSRAM continually monitors its production techniques for environmental compatibility and develops new manufacturing processes. We also expect our suppliers to respect the environment, assume responsibility for it, deal with resources economically and avoid any negative impact on the environment. To maintain these high standards and in accordance with the EU Directive 2002/95/EC and 2003/11/EC, we have established an index list that contains all substances not allowed in our production. A prerequisite for a cooperation as a supplier is to sign this index list.

Code of Conduct
In January 2005 OSRAM has joined the Global Compact initiated by United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan. Therefore, our company is committed to behave responsibly towards people and environment in view of 10 basic principles, including respect for human rights, nondiscriminatory practices in the workplace, abolishment of child labor, respect for the environment and elimination of corruption. For more information see www.unglobalcompact.org. The requirements that OSRAM expects all its suppliers and service providers throughout the world to follow, are summarized in the OSRAM's Code of Conduct. By agreeing to the code, suppliers also recognize the Global Compact principles and pledge to implement them in their own businesses and forward them to their own suppliers.
