Preamble 
As a company with international interdependencies, NXP sees itself as having a special 
responsibility to work towards improving the global human rights situation along our supply 
chains and to shape business relationships socially with a view to the 2030 Agenda for 
Sustainable Development.  
NXP is committed to respecting human rights and environmental concerns within its own 
business activities and along global supply chains and to ensuring that human rights and 
environmental violations are prevented, and that those affected have access to remedial 
action.  
One of the obligations of the Supply Chain Due Diligence Act is the publication of the policy 
statement pursuant to Section 6 (2) of the Supply Chain Due Diligence Act. In particular, we 
will  outline the priority human rights and environmental risks identified for the company on 
the basis of the risk analysis and the definition of human rights and environmental 
expectations that the company has for its employees and suppliers in the supply chain on the 
basis of the risk analysis. In addition, we provide a description of the procedure by which the 
company fulfils its obligations under § 4 (1), § 5 (1), § 6 (3) to (5), and §§ 7 to 10. 
Our policy statement includes the following points: 
1. Human rights and environmental risks 
At NXP, we strongly believe that respecting human rights, promoting fair labor practices, 
protecting the environment, and contributing to the development of the common good in the 
communities in which we operate are of great importance. Our policies reflect these principles 
and guide our actions towards sustainable development. 
There are no salient human rights and environmental risks identified for NXP Germany, using 
NXP’s risk assessment and due diligence process. 
The review process and risk assessment are conducted. 
NXP has, in 2023, 796 active suppliers in Germany and all have been assessed to be low risk, 
in the NXP supply chain risk assessment. 
The review and risk assessment will be conducted and updated year over year.

management system and demonstrate equivalency. 
 
3. Supply Chain Due Diligence 
Our suppliers submit a signed conformance letter stating that they abide by the NXP Supplier 
Code of Conduct and are promptly notified with updates to our requirements.  
We use extensive risk analysis to identify potential risks in our supply chain and take 
appropriate action and have established an accessible complaints mechanism that includes 
direct and indirect suppliers. Suppliers undergo an annual supplier risk assessment. In 2022, 
267 suppliers received a risk assessment score above 49%, indicating high or priority risk, and, 
as a result, may be required to complete an NXP Self-Assessment Questionnaire and/or 
participate in an audit. NXP works collaboratively with suppliers to help them achieve and 
maintain our standards and expectations. Our preference is to work with suppliers to address 
potential deficiencies by helping them develop and implement a corrective action plan. 
Our supply chain management practices include: 
3.1 Supply Chain Management: We have established effective supply chain management that 
ensures that our suppliers comply with the requirements of the NXP Supplier Code of Conduct 
and applicable laws in the countries in which they operate. Details can  be found at Supplier 
Engagement | NXP Semiconductors. 
3.2 Risk Assessment:  
Our supplier risk assessment, developed jointly with our procurement and sustainability 
teams, is reviewed and updated to reflect changing perspectives in environment, labor, and 
human rights requirements. Our supplier risk assessment considers three risk criteria: country,

NXP Semiconductors, High Tech Campus 60, 5656 AG Eindhoven, the Netherlands 
 
   PUBLIC 
www.nxp.com 
product, and spend. Country Risk assesses countries, regions, and all other locations in which 
NXP has a footprint. Each criterion has a scale of one (lowest risk) to ten (highest risk). The 
overall supplier risk score is the product of the three individual scores, expressed as a 
percentage. A higher percentage implies a higher risk exposure.  
Risk Score = [(Country Risk) x (Product or Service) x (Spend)] x 10/1000 
Given the scale of this annual effort, NXP partners with two advisory firms, Verisk Maplecroft 
and Verité, to identify potential issues relevant to our supply chains. Verisk Maplecroft’s 
database provides input that we use to screen our supply chain for inherent risk and uses 
predictive models to evaluate areas such as forced labor, child labor, and working conditions. 
Verité Cumulus provides NXP with online technology to identify forced-labor and human-
trafficking risks of labor agents involved in the recruitment of migrant workers. Verité Cumulus 
also maps and assesses labor agents, in both the receiving and sending countries and regions, 
along with their recruitment practices. 
In addition, we require our suppliers classified as high-risk suppliers to complete a self-
assessment questionnaire and/or participate in an audit.   
3.3 Audits:  
NXP’s Social Responsibility Audit Program is a collaborative and consultative process aimed at 
guiding suppliers and ensuring they meet the NXP Supplier Code of Conduct as well as the 
requirements of the NXP Auditable Standards on Social Responsibility. The scope of the audit 
covers labor and human rights, environment, health and safety, business ethics, management 
systems, and compliance with the NXP Supplier Code of Conduct. These audits are conducted 
to determine and understand suppliers’ maturity in managing social responsibility and how 
they can improve their processes and procedures in these areas. The audits are not intended 
to pass or fail a supplier, but rather to guide the supplier in a collaborative approach. The NXP 
Supplier Code of Conduct and the Auditable Standards apply to all NXP suppliers, contractors, 
onsite service providers, labor agents, and external manufacturers.  
NXP supplier audits analyse three main aspects of social responsibility: documentation 
reviews, management and private worker interviews, and physical inspection of all facilities, 
including any dormitories (onsite audit only). Audits also include interviews with labor agents 
and onsite service providers, such as janitorial, cafeteria, security, and other services. 
3.4 Commitment: We work closely and collaboratively with our suppliers to work together on 
solutions and develop action plans for continuous improvement. We encourage dialogue and 
the exchange of best practices to make our supply chain more sustainable. 
3.5 Ethics: We ensure that our suppliers act ethically and comply with both legal requirements 
and our own specifications when procuring labour and raw materials. 
3.6 Training:  NXP conducts regular capacity building and training for our supply chain 
partners. These training covers the requirements of NXP’s Supplier Code of Conduct and 
recommendations on how to comply with those requirements. The training program also

NXP Semiconductors, High Tech Campus 60, 5656 AG Eindhoven, the Netherlands 
 
   PUBLIC 
www.nxp.com 
provide NXP the opportunity to obtain feedback from suppliers about their concerns and 
challenges.  
 
3.7 Indirect Suppliers 
Our due diligence extends to our indirect suppliers in our supply chain. The indirect suppliers 
in our supply chain are facility services, equipment suppliers, and other essential service 
providers, such as logistics and warehousing.  
On an annual basis, we carry out supply chain risk analysis of all our suppliers, including our 
indirect supplier and in some cases, carry our audits of our indirect suppliers.  
Together with indirect suppliers, we work on the creation and implementation of 
requirements that are aligned with NXP Supplier Code of Conduct, to prevent, terminate or 
minimize risks and violations. 
4. Remedies and Complaints Procedures: 
We have established clear procedures for remedying and dealing with complaints. If violations 
of sustainability standards are identified in our supply chain, we advocate for appropriate 
corrective action and ensure that complaints are handled appropriately. 
Our complaints channel is open to NXP employees, contractors and third parties who wish to 
report concerns or violations by our indirect suppliers. 
In detail, this includes: 
4.1 Complaints procedure 
We are committed to promoting a culture of integrity, and encourage our team members, as 
well as external business partners and third parties, to express any concerns they have related 
to potential violations of the Code, NXP policies, or the law.  
Concerns and grievances can be confidentially lodged using various reporting channels, such 
as management, ethics liaisons, or the NXP Ethics Committee. There are dedicated ethics 
liaisons regionally and in each country. Concerns and grievances can also be submitted using 
the phone or web option of SpeakUp, a system hosted by an independent third party that 
facilitates anonymous reporting. Team members, Business Partners and Suppliers are 
encouraged to report potential violations of our Code using any of our reporting channels.  
Our SpeakUp reporting channels are communicated to all team members through the Code, 
dedicated intranet web pages, trainings, our website, and various other means. SpeakUp can 
be used by any employee, contractor, business partner, stakeholder, or other third parties.  
All concerns raised are taken seriously. We apply the highest standards of confidentiality in the 
handling of all reports received. We have a strict non-retaliation policy to protect those who 
report concerns and grievances.

4.2 Remedies 
All reports are assessed and discussed by the NXP Ethics Committee. After the initial 
assessment of a report, an investigation team is appointed with the right expertise and skill 
set to conduct an in-depth investigation. Based on the findings of the investigation, a decision 
is made about whether the report can be substantiated. If so, we take appropriate follow-up 
actions. These actions can include education, organizational changes, counselling, reprimand, 
suspension, and/ or termination, depending on the nature and severity of the finding and the 
party’s willingness and ability to rectify the issue. While it is difficult to set a fixed timetable 
for resolution, since complaints vary in scale and complexity, most can be dealt with in under 
two months. 
5. Continuous Improvement 
We strive to continuously improve our sustainability performance and also place this 
requirement on our suppliers. Regular reviews and updates of our policies, procedures and 
practices are made to reflect evolving sustainability standards, regulations and best practices. 
On a regular basis, the management will conduct reviews to determine the continues 
effectiveness and adequacy of the NXP human rights and environmental due diligence 
program requirements in order to meet changing business, regulatory and stakeholder 
requirements.  
6. Reporting and disclosure 
We will report transparently and comprehensively on our sustainability efforts, including our 
progress, successes and challenges. Our reports are prepared annually and are available to our 
stakeholders and the public. Information on the principles and measures for the protection of 
human rights and environmental due diligence can already be found in our annual 
sustainability report and in our financial report, which is presented to management and the 
public. 
From 2024, we will also set out the topics specific to compliance with the Supply Chain Due 
Diligence Act in a separate section of our Sustainability Report. In addition, the Compliance 
Officer and the representative of our company will report regularly and on an ad hoc basis to 
the management in accordance with Section 4 (3) LkSG on compliance with human rights, 
environmental and other obligations under the LkSG. 
7. Delegate and Contacts 
NXP has appointed an officer in accordance with Section 4 (3) of the Supply Chain Due 
Diligence Act:
