Sustainability at OSRAMWe want not only to create added value but also support sustain- able developments. Our energy-efficient and intelligent products and solutions are contributing to climate protection. Our lighting technol-ogies are improving safety on the roads and in public spaces, helping protect personal data and increasing well-being at work and in the home.

We have received several acknowledgements of our sustainability achievements:

Sustainability means responsibility. By this we understand both the con tribution that our products make and how we treat our employees, suppliers and customers. Along our entire value chain, we focus on the responsible use of resources, protection of the environment and climate, fair working conditions, health and safety as well as com-pliance with human rights – for our own employees and for those of our partners.

Business Conduct and ComplianceCompliance with current laws and corporate guidelines is a matter of course for OSRAM and is firmly anchored in the Group through our compliance system.

Impact assessmentIn 2018, the results of a project set up became available, in which the overall social costs and benefits of selected technology scenarios in agriculture were recorded and assessed. Overall, there are some impressive fig- ures showing that intelligent LED-based lighting can have a posi-tive effect.

* All figures relate to the businesses of OSRAM Licht AG in the fiscal year 2018 (FY 2018).

Research & Development

LightelligenceOur Lightelligence IoT platform forms the basis for a variety of smart applications in buildings and outdoor areas through the networking of sensors and light-ing installations. This can pro-duce high levels of energy effi-ciency and lighting comfort.

Patents and patent applicationsCommercial property rights such as patents, brands and know-how are of particular importance in the lighting industry. The large number of patents reflects our ongoing powers of innovation.

increase in the energy efficiency of green LEDs. At the same time, developers succeeded in increasing luminous efficacy to 175 lm/W.

Conflict mineralsSince FY 2017 OSRAM is a member of the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI), an initiative of the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA). Our opto semiconductor portfolio is already free of conflicts; in other products we achieved transparency of 97 percent in 2018.

Human RightsIn FY 2018, OSRAM published its human rights policy and integrated the subject of human rights in the whistleblower system “Tell OSRAM” and other internal systems.

Rare earths research projectThe Opto Semiconductors business unit, together with experts from the Schwabmünchen plant, the University of Saarland and BASF, is conducting research into alternatives for these metals contained in white LEDs .

Suppliers

CSR audits Our suppliers in countries with increased human rights risks are asked to submit self-disclosures on corporate responsibility issues. In addition, OSRAM carries out annual corporate social respon- sibility audits for a representative selection of suppliers.

Code of Conduct for suppliersOSRAM has a Code of Conduct in compliance with international standards and conventions which has to be signed by all suppliers worldwide. It was supplemented in FY 2018 by an explicit ban on any form of modern slavery, forced labor or human trafficking.

684 recently signed supplier codicesOSRAM covers 98 percent of its procurement volume with these.

Supplier portalOSRAM places high requirements on all suppliers. These are defined for each material field and are checked as part of the tendering process. They are clearly presented on the OSRAM supplier portal. OSRAM also provides training material for sup-pliers on the portal.

Lightup!In 2018, we launched our global “LightUp!” trainee program. In this program we are training internationally networked young professionals and boost-ing our attractiveness for uni-versity graduates.

In addition to our Scope 1 and 2 balance, we published a Scope 3 balance for the first time and participated in CDP.

EHS guidelinesRequirements governing health & safety at work are defined in OSRAM’s EHS guidelines (Environmental Protection, Health and Safety) and are binding throughout the world.

PackagingClear principles apply to the design and procurement of pack-aging at OSRAM. Packaging should be made exclusively from eco-friendly materials that can either be recycled or disposed of safely.

LogisticsOSRAM uses the EN 16258 method to calculate greenhouse gas emissions for transport logistics. The applied criteria must be fulfilled by all parties, and these parties are obliged to con-tinually reduce their CO2 emis-sions. All the recorded data is collated and published in monthly reports.

Employeesare active in sales, corre-sponding to almost 9 percent of all employees.

RecyclingOSRAM achieves a high propor-tion of recyclable materials by paying attention to the concept of recycling right from the product development stage.

Human Centric LightingWith human centric lighting we are improving the performance of top athletes, and supporting therapies for dementia sufferers. HCL has an important role to play in offices because there is clear evidence that lighting tailored to individual needs con-tributes to greater creativity and productivity.

Life Cycle Analysis (LCA)The energy consumption of our most important product groups is less than 4 percent for manufac-ture, distribution and disposal, and 96 percent of this can be ascribed to the usage phase. Improving ener-gy efficiency is therefore a great lever for climate protection. A worldwide switch to energy- efficient lighting would reduce CO2 emissions by 390 million tonnes a year and save around 50 billion US dollars.*

Local aidOSRAM collaborates with organizations at local level. A good example is our multi-year commit-ment to cooperate with the Boston Children’s Hospital in supporting young patients and their families.

Techfest In 2018, OSRAM again took an active part in Techfest Munich as a main partner. We made Lightelligence software available to talented youngsters so they could develop applications with a promising future.

Scholarship programOSRAM provides several scholarships at USM University in George Town, Malaysia.

German Red CrossSince 2016 as an official corporate partner of the Red Cross, OSRAM has been promoting an innovative approach for releasing humani- tarian aid in advance of natural dis- asters. Forecast-based Financing (FbF) uses weather forecasts to identify regions at special risk so that targeted financial and humani-tarian aid can be provided before the disaster strikes.
