Huawei Statement on Responsible Mineral Supply Chain Due Diligence Management

As a member of the United Nations Global Compact, Global e-Sustainability Initiative (GeSI), Responsible Business Alliance (RBA), and Responsible Mineral Initiative (RMI), Huawei is committed to fulfilling its corporate social responsibilities and ensuring ethical procurement for sustainable supply chain development.

Huawei is serious about the societal and environmental impact of our global procurement and supply chain, and is committed to the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights (UNGPs). We are dedicated to the responsible procurement of mineral raw materials used in our products, including tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold (3TGs), cobalt, mica, nickel, lithium, and natural graphite. In accordance with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, the Chinese Due Diligence Guidelines for Responsible Mineral Supply Chains, and the EU Batteries Regulation 2023/1542, we require our suppliers to maintain a policy to reasonably prevent or reduce the risk that minerals contained in their products may directly or indirectly support human rights abuses, harm the environment or personal health and safety, or breed corruption. Suppliers are required to conduct source traceability and responsible mineral due diligence for the mineral products used in their purchased products to improve supply chain transparency and supply chain governance capabilities.

Responsible mineral supply chain due diligence management is a process of continuous improvement. It requires the commitment and cooperation of businesses, governments, and non-governmental organizations. We will continue to engage with industry organizations to seek sustainable solutions with customers and suppliers and drive the sustainable development of the mineral supply chain.
