Updating Global ESH requirements: A TI Case Study.

Schomer, Dawne (Texas Instruments)

You must log in to view the full proceedings.

In this day of economic and trade globalization, multinational companies are responsible for an expanding number and type of requirements. The number of in-country ESH laws are increasing, and the number of international and regional Directives, Covenants, and Trade Agreements having environmental, safety and/or health requirements is growing. In addition, the scope of issues has expanded to include product-related concerns such as product content and product packaging. How are we maintaining visibility and management of these requirements? One element of Texas Instrument’s 2000 – 2001 ESH Strategic Plan is to ensure the robustness of our internal global business processes related to this challenge. How TI and other GEMI (Global Environmental Management Initiative*) companies are addressing this issue is the theme of this presentation. *See website for more information on GEMI: www.gemi.org.
