We are living through one of the mostcomplex periods in recent history shaped by
the effects of a global pandemic, growing
social challenges and the increasing impactsof climate change – all of which demand bold

Sustainability At Celestica

The challenges may be great, but thecollective desire of our employees, customers
and suppliers to address them strengthens
each year. We believe actions speak louder
than words, which is why we have integrated
strong environmental, social and governance(ESG) principles and practices into every aspectof our business for more than two decades.

The good news is that doing what’s right for
our world is also good for our business. We
are increasingly being chosen as a respected
partner by customers looking to lessen theirown environmental impact by working closelywith sustainably responsible suppliers. And wehave a new generation of workers coming into
the business who care deeply about purpose
and want to work for socially responsibleorganizations.

CELESTICA SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021

Our ESG strategy is built on minimizing theenvironmental impact of our operations
and supply chain, supporting our local
communities, and creating a vibrant, positive
workplace that empowers our people.
But we also recognize that some issues
demand global action. That is why we remain
proudly committed and supportive of theUnited Nations Global Compact (UNGC)
and its 10 principles, the world’s largest
corporate sustainability initiative. Our first
Communication on Progress for the UNGC is
included in this report. We’re also a long-time
supporter of the United Nations Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs) and haveprioritized 10 SDGs that we believe present
the greatest opportunity to effect meaningfulchange.
We know that to bring our future to life wemust embed Diversity and Inclusion (D&I)
deeper into the fibre of our company. In 2021
we launched a revitalized, multi-tiered D&I
program for our 20,000 employees aroundthe world. Its elements included global D&I
training for all employees; the introduction3About This Reportof new Employee Resource Groups to provide support and create an environment inwhich people feel encouraged to be their authentic selves; the celebration of a Global

Our Progress
Our annual Sustainability Report charts the progress we made in 2021 and what wehope to achieve in 2022 and beyond. Here are some of the highlights:• In 2021, as the impact of climate-related events became increasingly apparent,
the Celestica Board of Directors expanded our ESG practices throughout thebusiness. In-depth reports and key risks are provided regularly to the Board andcompensation for members of the senior executive is tied to achieving sustainability
targets.
• We are making excellent progress against our target to reduce absolute Scope 1
and Scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions 30% by 2025 from a 2018 base year,
achieving a 63% reduction.

Looking Ahead
While I am very proud of the progress we made in 2021, weare committed to doing even more in 2022 and in the years
that follow. We’ll be turning our focus to reducing our Scope
3 emissions, advancing the circular economy through IT asset
disposition support, investing in renewable technologies, andinvestigating additional ways to reduce our water usage.
Together with our employees, customers, suppliers, investors andpartners, Celestica will continue to do the right thing to help build
a more sustainable and equitable future.

Rob Mionis

energy reduction targets, track and measure progress, and encourage collaborationand knowledge-sharing across our network of operations.
• More than 96% of employees completed new global Diversity & Inclusion training.
• Our culture of sustainability expands beyond our company to our suppliers. In 2021,

We continue to use the implications of the pandemic to test and improve ourdisaster recovery and business continuity plans and emerge stronger and far
more capable to deal with future crises, including climate-related crises, inwhatever form they may take.
As a global company, the pandemic affected each of the regions where we
operate, and our teams moved quickly and decisively to respond. Our priorities
have remained to keep our employees healthy and safe, prevent the spreadof the virus in the communities in which we operate, and ensure minimal
disruption to our operations and customers.
Over the past two years, our global COVID-19 Response team, consistingof employees from our Health and Safety, Human Resources, Supply Chain,
Information Technology (IT), Operations, and Communications teams havebeen closely monitoring developments around the globe and taking action
to protect employees. In addition, teams at each of our sites have been
responsible for implementing protocols at their locations.
We continue to base our actions on international advisories and guidance
received from the World Health Organization (WHO), the United States Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), and local governments.

CELESTICA SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021

We maintained robust measures at sites to protect our employees and ensure
our ability to operate. These include temperature screening, distributing
personal protective equipment (PPE), social distancing, heightened hygiene
practices, and deep cleaning of our facilities. We also restricted non-essential
travel and site visits and significantly expanded our work-from-home policies.
Each COVID-19 case was handled with care and consideration, and we worked
closely with local authorities to establish robust quarantine protocols to reducetransmission. Throughout the pandemic, our global manufacturing facilities
were considered “critical” or “essential” under applicable regulations andremained operational.
We constantly monitored the status of the global supply chain and remained
vigilant in taking a proactive, disciplined approach to mitigating our customers’
supply challenges. We bolstered our Supply Chain team and maintained
contact with our critical suppliers to align lead times and help customers get
their products to market on time.
Our Global Logistics team closely tracked inbound and outbound status ofshipments, as well as mode of transportation options between our suppliers,
manufacturing sites, and customers. We worked collaboratively with ourcarriers, suppliers, sites, and customers to overcome constraints and maintainmaterial and product flow in an effort to meet customer demand andscheduling.
We remain committed to adapting to our customers’ evolving priorities.
Because customer meetings and site visits were halted, we embraced new
ways to stay connected. We developed a Virtual Customer Experience programthat transformed traditional customer meetings and site visits, quarterly

enabled us to maintain strong relationships with our customers. Even after the pandemic ends, we expect
to leverage this program to reduce travel and contribute to our sustainability goals by reducing emissions.
Celestica played a leadership role in the battle against COVID-19 by partnering with our customers
who are the healthcare sector’s leading original equipment manufacturers to meet the growing need forhigh-quality medical equipment on the front lines. We contributed directly to the design and dramaticallyincreased production of a range of ventilators, portable ultrasound devices, and critical components forrespirator systems and blood analyzer devices, to name just a few.
Supporting the communities in which we operate is critical to Celestica’s culture. In this time of greatneed our teams came together to support our local hospitals, schools, and the most vulnerable. Several

Increasing the use of renewable energy sources in our operations
is another major pillar in our environmental strategy. In 2021 wereduced nearly 9,800 metric tonnes of CO2e through the useof on-site panels and the procurement of renewable energy
through utilities. Our Oradea, Romania site installed rooftop solar
panels, which will reduce their energy demand from the grid.
Today renewable energy makes up 57.8% of our total electricity
consumption.
Our 2021 Sustainability Report also highlights how the circular
economy is ingrained in our business model: from design, toengineering, to after-market services. Our processes and products
are designed with circularity in mind, ensuring recovered materials
are used in manufacturing and that the materials have a high-level ofrecoverability, through either reuse, remanufacturing, or recycling.

While we have made great progress, we are intent on raising the bar evenhigher. In 2022, Celestica will be launching a new Supplier Emissions
Program which will support our Scope 3 science-based target, focusing on
reducing emissions from our purchased goods and services. We have also set
a goal to achieve a 30% gender diverse Board of Directors by 2023.
Our achievements are a tribute to the incredible talent andcontributions of our people. Throughout this report, you’ll find powerfulstories of the many ways our employees are making the world a better
place. I want to express my sincere thanks and appreciation for theircommitment—from driving sustainability improvements in their sites tovolunteering their skills, time and creativity during the pandemic, ouremployees are an endless source of inspiration.
At Celestica, we’re committed to continuing to be a responsible leader
to ensure the continued health of this one world we all share.

We believe that one of the most effective ways to do our part is to adopt andapply universally recognized standards within our business. Although all 17
SDGs are relevant to Celestica, our communities, and our stakeholders, wehave prioritized 10 goals we believe present opportunities for us to affect
the greatest change. We determine this annually through our materiality

Emissions From Our Operations (Scope 1 and Scope 2)
At Celestica, we monitor our GHG emissions at a facility level which enables us to identify thelargest sources of emissions and drive more sustainable practices in areas that have the greatest
environmental impact. In 2021, we tracked emissions from 97% of the facilities over which we haveoperational control.

FIGURE 3.1: GHG EMISSIONS AND 2025 TARGET

184,024

Our Scope 1 direct emissions derived from natural gas and liquid fuels (such as diesel) are used forheating, cooking in cafeterias, and powering back-up generators. In 2021, our Scope 1 emissions
increased by 52% compared to 2020. The increase was largely due to the installation of a generator
for a Celestica site that operates in an area that experiences frequent power outages, causing manybusiness interruptions.
Our Scope 2 indirect emissions derived from electricity are used in our operations primarily forlighting, HVAC, manufacturing equipment, and compressed air. In 2021, our Scope 2 location-based
emissions decreased by nearly 11% year-over-year, whereas our Scope 2 market-based emissions
increased by 2% year-over-year. The decrease in location-based emissions can be attributed tothe progress made by all of our facilities to implement energy savings projects through our Energy
Consumption Roadmap Reviews; one facility increasing use of a generator for a portion of its energy
instead of only electricity; and the move from one facility that was located in a region with primarily
coal-based electricity to one that was much cleaner. The increase in market-based emissions in 2021
is attributed to the reduced amount of renewable energy coverage throughout the year. Although ourmarket-based emissions increased, a 63% reduction was realized compared to our 2018 base year.
This reduction is attributed to the use of on-site solar energy generation, procurement of renewableenergy from utilities, purchase of Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs), and implementation of energy
efficiency projects.

SocialGovernanceAlthough we saw a decrease in our Scope 3 emissions from reduced employee commuting in 2021 (incomparison to 2019) due to work-from-home measures and temporary office shutdowns, we are awarethat we are not measuring the emissions arising from home offices to the extent that our employees areworking remotely. Further, we cannot measure the increased demands on cloud-based storage fromthe additional need for email, instant messaging, and video conferencing; nor are we aware of additionalemissions that the pandemic may have caused within our supply chains.
In 2020, Celestica set a target in alignment with the SBTi to reduce Scope 3 GHG emissions 10% by
2025 from a 2018 base year from fuel and energy-related activities, purchased goods and services, andupstream and downstream transportation and distribution. In 2021, we had a 44% decrease in thesecategories compared to 2020, largely due to a 63% decrease in purchased goods and services. Upstream
and downstream transportation categories saw a significant increase due to supply chain constraints,
causing increased quantity of shipments and reduced opportunities to use emission-friendly modes oftransportation.

Additional Air Emissions
To strengthen our ability to mitigate theimpacts of climate change, we haveenhanced our emissions inventory to track
criteria air contaminants (CACs), hazardous
air pollutants (HAPs), and persistent organic
pollutants (POPs) emissions released fromour facilities and process operations thatare not included in our total emissions
calculations. This includes volatile organic
compounds (VOCs), particulate matter(PM), nitrogen oxides (NOx), methane(CH4), sulphur oxides (SOx), lead (Pb), nonmethane hydrocarbons (NMHC), hazardous
air pollutants (HAPs), and tin (Sn). In 2021,
we released approximately 6 metric tonnesof these air emissions from 32% of oursquare footage.

Energy is critical to Celestica’s operations and can generate significant greenhouse gas emissions. We procure
renewable energy and conserve energy throughout our sites to reduce demand on the grid. Our sites continue todevelop energy reduction initiatives through the ongoing implementation of efficient technologies and equipment,
sharing of best practices, and education.
In 2021, Celestica consumed 212 gigajoules (GJ) of energy per million USD of revenue, a 1% reduction year-over-year.
To reduce our energy consumption, our facilities implemented energy efficiency projects that account for savings ofmore than 17,000 GJ.
Currently nine sites have obtained ISO 50001:2018 certifications, representing 65% of our total consumed electricity forthe year. Additionally, a number of our sites conducted energy audits in 2021 to receive a third-party analysis of potential
energy improvements. Moving forward, we will regularly reassess whether we can increase the number of certified
sites, look for opportunities to conduct formalized energy audits, and continue to invest in the latest best practices forenergy management that enable us to reduce our energy consumption, emissions, and costs. Representatives across ouroperations meet bi-monthly to share ideas, projects, and solutions.

BUILDING MANAGEMENTSYSTEM UPGRADE

Celestica’s Suzhou, China site upgraded the existing building management system (BMS) by connecting all devices
including cooling pumps, chiller pumps, air handling units (AHUs), make-up air units (MAUs), and cooling towers.
Prior to these upgrades, there was no program to link HVAC devices together, so each unit had to be individuallyturned on and off. By connecting all of the units, machines could be turned on, off or adjusted in real time,
according to indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity changes. Also, the standby unit could be automaticallyturned on in the event a system failure. The new BMS realized over 100 MWh in energy savings in 2021 and willcontinue to provide energy reductions.

Celestica’s Johor-AMS, Malaysia site completed Six Sigma and kaizen projects to identify opportunities to reduceenergy consumption. The team realized that an aging air compressor required frequent maintenance and consumed
excess energy. Data analysis confirmed that investing in a new air compressor would overall reduce energy
consumption. Upon upgrading the air compressor, energy consumption decreased by nearly 150 MWh per month.
Furthermore, the team discovered that there was no system in place to regulate the site’s cooling tower fans, leading
to unnecessary energy consumption. Variable speed drives (VSDs) were installed to control the speed of the fansaccording to the desired temperature of the cooling water. The site’s installation of VSDs on four unit fans in thecooling tower saves nearly 50 MWh each month.

Renewable Energy
Fernando Coma
At Celestica, we are committed to increasing the use of renewable energy sourcesin our operations. We currently use 57.8% renewable energy as part of our total
electricity consumption, through the use of on-site solar panels, procurement
through utilities, and the purchase of Energy Attribute Certificates.
In 2021, solar panels were installed at our sitein Oradea, Romania to provide renewableenergy to power our operations. All otherelectricity required for the site continues tobe 100% renewable energy procured fromthe local provider. These initiatives prevented
approximately 3,600 mt of CO2e from entering
the atmosphere in 2021.
Our Laem Chabang, Thailand site continues
to generate renewable energy through its 3.5
megawatts of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems first
installed in 2016. In 2021, the PV systems avoided
approximately 1,800 mt of CO2e, which has
increased our total savings from these panels, toan estimated 68,000 mt of CO2e.
Our Galway, Ireland; Valencia, Spain; andPortland, Oregon, U.S. facilities derive 100% of
their electricity from renewable energy. Together,
these three sites prevented approximately 3,500
mt of CO2e from entering the atmosphere in
2021.

CELESTICA SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021

Celestica also purchased nearly 120,000 MWh of
EACs to cover an additional 46% of our energy
consumption and 49% of our Scope 2 emissions.
These certificates were purchased from wind,solar, and small hydro projects in Thailand,
China, Mexico, and Vietnam. All certificatesare recognized by the International Renewable
Energy Certificates (i-REC) Standard. We areconstantly investigating new sources of on-site
renewable energy capabilities for our facilities but
are currently employing the purchase of EACs topromote the development of renewable energy

Celestica is committed to sustainable consumption through the efficient use of materials within
our operations. Our facilities follow a robust waste and recycling management system to reduce,reuse, repurpose, refurbish, and recycle materials. We track our data using dedicated sustainability
software and share best practices among our sites by hosting bi-monthly meetings and throughonline community platforms.
We continue to track waste diversion rates at a site and global level. We completed 2021 with a
global rate of 85.6%. Overall, Celestica’s material disposal increased by over 1,000 mt from 2020.
Celestica’s Laem Chabang, Thailand site saw a large increase in landfill waste and metals recycling
in 2021. Increases in landfill waste are attributed to changes in the waste streams, which required
adjustments to the disposition. In August 2021, the site was approved by a new local vendor,
shifting their waste that was previously collected for landfill, to be transformed to waste-to-energy,
by incineration. Although not our optimal choice for reducing waste, this has greatly improved thesite’s waste diversion rate, leading to a 93% waste diversion rate in the last quarter of 2021.

Packaging materials comprise a significant portion of our total waste. In 2021, paper, wood,
plastics, and cardboard made up 43% of our waste material. We have taken a variety of steps
to reduce and recycle these materials including material consolidation, packaging reuse, andimproved material segregation. We are working to further reduce packaging by strengthening
our internal procurement, supplier, and customer relationships. In 2021, we began to review ourlargest packaging commodities, analyzing their recycled content and working with our suppliers to
explore new ways to reduce packaging while maintaining design and safety integrity.
Our Fremont, California, U.S. site continues to utilize Kimberly-Clark’s RightCycle program torecycle most models of nitrile gloves and smocks used on-site. For the third year in a row, the site
has been recognized for its participation in the program. Since inception, the site has recycled over
5,000 kg of material to be processed and reused into other products, with over 1,200 kg recycled
in 2021. We will continue to explore rolling out this program to other sites.
Celestica works with suppliers and customers to prevent waste generation in both our upstream
and downstream activities—from reducing packaging waste to managing material selection in
products and packaging. We also work to ensure in-process products are reworked and final
products returned to their intended use when possible. Our sites use due diligence in selecting
material hauling vendors that meet quality specifications and sustainability practices, and conduct
audits on a regular basis.
Celestica collects and reports manufacturing waste material data at a site level on a monthly basis
through a third party software system. Data integrity is evaluated on a quarterly basis.
While implementing activities to reduce waste, Celestica will continue to look to improve datacollection - from methods of disposal to circularity activities within the business. This will not only
enhance our visibility into waste produced, but allow us to set accurate goals and communicate
our activities more effectively.

The World Resources Institute’s Aquaduct tool indicates that nine of Celestica’s
facilities operate in water-stressed areas. We are working to integrate
evidence-based industry best practices into our tracking and environmental
management systems. Actions include strengthening our reporting capabilities
to provide greater transparency and encouraging our supply chain to disclose
their water management practices. We are increasing our alignment to SDG 6:
Clean Water and Sanitation by actively seeking opportunities to improve, invest
in, and strengthen Celestica’s infrastructure in water-stressed communities anddevelopment in the near- and long-term.
In 2021, Celestica withdrew approximately 1,168 megalitres (ML) from thirdparty municipal water supply systems and local water sources for the sites
in which we have operational control and measurement capabilities. This
represents an 6.4% decrease from 2020 levels, primarily due to an increased
focus on water reductions at our facilities and an increase in the number of
employees working from home due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Areas suchas washrooms, drinking fountains, and cafeterias are the greatest sources ofwater consumption, meaning that consumption is highly dependent on the

number of employees working within our sites. Our manufacturing processes
account for the second largest percentage of our water usage. Several of
our sites have mitigated this usage through the installation of circular water
systems such as collecting rainwater to water gardens; however, thesevolumes are not currently tracked.
Our existing water management approaches, policies, and standards work
to minimize impacts of our effluents on water sources, protected areas, or
biodiversity. Celestica acknowledges risks that can come from water misuseand scarcity, including polluted waters, biodiversity loss, reduced river flows,
and political conflicts. Potential impacts of water misuse may include increased
supply and treatment costs, intermittent supply and other adverse effects toour supply chain, employees, and operations. We are committed to finding

we minimize the risks
associated with climatechange, empower thecommunities in which we
operate, and reduce our
impact on people and theplanet.

CELESTICA SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2021

We understand the potential risks from climate change and take a precautionary approach to proactively manage themthrough our Environmental Management Systems (EMS) policies and practices. These efforts require our Board of Directors,
executives, functional teams, and operational employees to work together to help identify and manage our climate risk
exposure and potential opportunities. In 2020, we enhanced board leadership on ESG matters through the inclusion of
ESG within the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee mandate. See the Corporate Governance page for more
information about how Celestica has enhanced board leadership through the inclusion of ESG within the Nominating andCorporate Governance Committee mandate.
Within our annual materiality assessment, we provide internal stakeholders with a platform to discuss their priorities andobjectives, guide strategies, strengthen alignments, and spark new conversations. We also stay up-to-date with the latest
climate science, climate change models, industry trends and external stakeholder priorities. Using these research andcollaborative processes, we are able to identify and assess transitional and physical climate-related risks and opportunities,
including their size, scope, and potential impacts on our business and stakeholders.
Additionally, effective systems within our operations such as our internal audit team’s annual global risk assessments,
Business Continuity Plans (BCP), and Disaster Recovery Plans (DRP) ensure that proactive protocols are followed tominimize business disruptions and foster sustainable solutions. Overall, these collective approaches ensure that climaterelated risks and opportunities are embedded into our strategies, plans, and conversations to outline Celestica’s role andresponsibilities for driving climate action and water security.
Through our annual assessments and CDP responses, we have identified and assessed the potential impact on ourbusiness and stakeholders of transitional risks such as acute and chronic physical climate risks, technological changes,
current and emerging regulations, insurance programs, and legal implications. We also found that there are climaterelated opportunities by inspiring proactive measures, innovation, and future partnerships with Celestica. There may also
be business opportunities from shifting markets and product diversification that place us in a better competitive position
due to our response to changing consumer and investor preferences. Further details and impacts on climate-related risk

Supplier Assessments GRI 308-1, 414-1
Celestica is an electronics manufacturing services company that builds products for original
equipment manufacturer customers in accordance to their specifications. Many of our suppliers arescreened, selected, and controlled by the customers we work with and therefore are out of scopefor much of Celestica’s own assessment and qualification process.
We do have control over a select group of suppliers defined as key players in our business. This
group is known as our Major Supplier List (MSL). Through supplier self-assessments and verification
visits conducted by our employees or through the RBA, Celestica annually analyzes and scores our
MSL suppliers on social, ethical, and environmental actions across their operations. Celestica works
with suppliers to improve their scoring and close out any corrective actions that are identified, in atimely manner.
In 2021, Celestica completed more than 170 supplier facility Self-Assessment Questionnaires(SAQs). One supplier was reduced from medium risk down to low risk in 2021, and no suppliers
were identified as high risk suppliers. A total of 41 RBA supplier audits were completed for supplierfacilities, 29 initial audits and 12 closure audits. During 2021, we closed 69 of 113 corrective
actions open with our suppliers. It should be noted that some audits take up to two years to becompleted. With a focus on our MSL, over 183 unique suppliers were assessed on a combinationof environmental and social sustainability. In addition to our RBA supplier assessments and audits,and supplier scorecards, Celestica will continue to improve risk management in our supply chain
through integrated software.
Celestica’s Global Commodity Management team evaluates MSL suppliers quarterly through our
Supplier Performance Tool (SPoT). This scoring can affect the amount of business awarded to the
supplier, and if deficiencies are not satisfactorily addressed, the supplier may be removed from
the MSL. In 2021, our supplier scorecards were enhanced to incorporate a heavier weighting
on sustainability, specifically on conflict minerals. At the end of 2021, our suppliers collectively
received an average score of 62% in the sustainability metrics, calculated on suppliers’ practices inenvironment, labour, health, safety, and ethics. In 2022, the supplier scorecards will be enhanced

With a supply chain that spans nearly every country of the world, Celestica ensures we recognize andmanage risks from our suppliers, within the areas of business, ethics, human rights, labour, and theenvironment.
In 2021, Celestica began a partnership with an external software company to enhance our supply
chain risk visibility and business continuity. The tool monitors a large number of indicators, including
identifying single-sourced materials, maintaining supplier history, and monitoring natural disasters
and geopolitical issues. Celestica will use the tool to give our company a leading edge in proactively
addressing procurement challenges, thus preventing production delays. Additionally, our customers
are provided with pre-production insights into their supply chain risk maturity. With over 6,000
suppliers and 8,000 supplier facilities in our data system currently, Celestica’s Supply Chain Risk
Management team has robust processes integrated within the tool’s powerful database. Featuresfrom the tool, such as automated live alerts, are implemented to ensure information is communicatedefficiently and to appropriate departments based on risk type.
As part of our focus on continuous improvement, we will look to take advantage of the full range ofsoftware data to expand the scope of risk management, including analyzing and measuring suppliers
from site-specific data for crime, terrorism, ethical behaviour, labour and human slavery, providing
greater alignment to our commitment to the RBA.

Report IndicesJennifer works to reduce the environmental
and social impact of Celestica’s supply
chain. In 2021, she and the Supply Chain
Management Data team partnered with athird-party to map the company’s entire endto-end supply chain. “This process reallyopened our eyes to the cascading effects
global events have on our ability to support
our customer’s requirements,” she says.
Jennifer and the team used these learnings toestablish an event monitoring process which
provides a notification when events such as
floods or COVID-19 shutdowns could impact
a supplier’s facility. “We can then proactively
work to de-risk the supply chain,” she says.
Teams can now assess the impact of an effectin hours versus weeks and quickly shift frombeing reactive to proactive. This real-time
advantage enables Celestica’s buyers to secure
alternative stock faster than the competition.

The Newmarket Facilities team realised that heatfrom the compressors in the factory was being
exhausted into the atmosphere when it could
have been redeployed to heat and dehumidify thefactory. Recognizing this as a great opportunity,
the team worked with its natural gas provider todevelop an innovative energy reduction initiative.
The compressor exhaust was re-routed todissipate the heat into the vicinity of a return air
unit in the ceiling where it was then distributed
throughout the building. Ultimately, the site saw
a 42% reduction in natural gas consumption andsignificant cost savings.

During the global pandemic, the Shanghai Spark
Change Team realised the importance of ensuring
employees continued to feel valued and engaged.
They developed a creative program that offeredstaff a wide range of opportunities to drive positivechange—at work and in the community. To
encourage green transportation and employee
care they offered a shuttle bus service between
the subway and the office. The program also
introduced a thank you card program thatprovided custom made cards which employees
were encouraged to use to show appreciation tocolleagues. A widely viewed WeChat recruitment
promotion enabled employees to share their best

They noticed that approximately a quarter of their energy consumption is used to create a comfortabletemperature, primarily from two large chillers that supply cooling water and air conditioning. In thesummer months these were used efficiently, but there was excessive energy consumption in the winter.
The team installed an independent system to cool the production which uses less energy and reduces theconsumption from the chillers and pumps when air conditioning is not required. It is estimated that thisproject will reduce approximately 300 MWh annually.

SocialOccupational Health and
SafetyEmployees from the Oradea, Romania site have been consistent participants in Celestica’s TOV Program each year. In 2021 alone, the site organized over 20
TOV events that aimed to provide COVID-19 relief and give back to the community. The key to the site’s success in engaging employees in TOV events was
the creation of an engagement calendar and webpage. The Human Resources team collaborated with the Information Technology team to create an internal
webpage dedicated to sharing upcoming site TOV events, employee education resources, and local social responsibility programs. The webpage and calendar
have been a huge success as they raised awareness on the importance of getting involved and increased attendance at volunteering events by allowing
employees to plan in advance and easily register.

Since 2009, Celestica has published annual reports documenting ourcorporate social responsibility programs and environmental sustainability
initiatives. We are committed to reporting our GHG emissions annuallyand began including third-party assurance of our GHG emissions in 2013.
We published our previous report in September 2021, which contained
results from the 2020 calendar year. This report contains results from the2021 calendar year.

Materiality GRI 102-43, 102-46, 102-47
As we progress towards our sustainability goals, elements we consider
essential are continuously evolving. We monitor these changes, analyze
environmental and social impacts, and assess the implications to our business.
We hold annual discussions with our internal and external stakeholders
on 30 Global Reporting Index® (GRI®) Standards and four industry-specifictopics (Conflict Minerals, Working Hours, Foreign Migrant Workers, andEmployee Wellness). We then create the materiality matrix based on thepotential impact on our business. Figure 5.2 illustrates the priority topics
for our company and stakeholders, with the highest priority given to thosepictured in the top right-hand quadrant.
Unless otherwise stated, the boundary for our material issues will represent
100% of Celestica’s footprint.

Report IndicesTechnical Notes About Data GRI 102-56
The greenhouse gases included in the calculation of our Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions are carbon dioxide(CO2), nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4). Greenhouse gas emissions are calculated based on
the requirements of the WRI/WBCSD GHG Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard (Revised),
and the GHG Protocol Scope 2 Guidance – Amendment to the GHG Protocol Corporate Standard,
and The Greenhouse Gas Protocol – Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Standard. Our source for global
warming potentials (GWPs) is the IPCC Second Assessment Report (SAR; 100 year). Our Scope 1 and 2
emissions and Scope 3 Categories 3, 6, and 7 emissions are verified through a third-party in accordancewith ISO 14064-3:2006, and emissions factors and GWPs used are located within our CDP submission.
No energy is sold by Celestica, nor are heat, steam or cooling purchased for consumption. Celestica
has no fuel consumption from renewable sources such as biogas or biomass. These are generated
from other sources of energy. There are no biogenic emissions generated from our operations.
We do not track sources of potential fugitive emissions, such as from fire extinguishers, or
refrigerants from air conditioning units.

We began tracking our GHG emissions on a monthly basis using sustainability management software
in 2012, and our waste and water in 2013. Square footage covered within the data below is indicatedwithin the tables, representing the manufacturing sites over which we have operational control andmeasurement. Between 2021 and our 2018 base year, we have not passed our significance threshold of
a 10% change in square footage to require a baseline recalculation, as per our internal policy and the
GHG Protocol. We will work to increase the amount of square footage covered by our reporting in the
future.

The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on various assumptions, many of which involve factors that are beyond our control. Our material assumptions
include those related to our ability to: successfully implement our sustainability and ESG initiatives as intended; further invest in renewable energy; enhance crossfunctional collaboration on sustainable solutions and ESG initiatives; and engage our full value chain on sustainability and ESG practices, as well as assumptions related
to the effectiveness and impact of such planned actions and science-based targets. Although management believes its assumptions to be reasonable under the current
circumstances, they may prove to be inaccurate, which could cause actual results to differ materially (and adversely) from those that would have been achieved had suchassumptions been accurate.
The forward-looking statements herein speak only as of the date made, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise, except as required by applicable law. All forward-looking statements herein are expressly qualified by these cautionary statements.
