 developing end-of-life recycling solutions. Together, this work helps to reduce the environmental impact of our operations and lowers the embodied carbon in our products – an attribute of growing importance to our customers.

Many of Owens Corning’s products are made using heavy, industrialized manufacturing processes. While we strive to continue our progress to reduce our impact, our factories produce various emissions, including greenhouse gases. Owens Corning is subject to or has chosen to voluntarily participate in Emissions Trading Schemes around the world. Broad and gradual tightening of national, regional, and state government limits on emissions could disrupt our access to energy sources or specific raw materials, which in turn could disrupt the manufacturing of products dependent upon them. Owens Corning invests in research and development on climate-related risks and opportunities. 

Human Capital Resources

The Company’s long-term success is dependent upon its access to and development of management and primary employees who are sufficiently skilled and capable of the work necessary to achieve the Company’s short- and long-term business objectives. To maintain employee engagement, Owens Corning strives to ensure its people feel valued, included, and engaged – from recruitment to retirement. That is why Owens Corning is dedicated to fostering an environment of learning and growth within a supportive, caring culture. We are committed to providing a safe, healthy workplace and a meaningful, engaging employee experience. 

As of December 31, 2024, Owens Corning had approximately 25,000 employees, of which approximately 12,000 were located outside the United States. Approximately 60% of hourly employees are subject to collective bargaining agreements. The Company regularly engages its salaried, non-represented and represented primary employees to collect feedback. In 2024, the Company engaged in the Pulse Survey, a new biannual survey that is designed to improve the employee experience, which had a 71% participation rate. Out of the 19,000 employees that participated, approximately 80% found their work engaging and were satisfied with their jobs. In 2023, the Company also engaged in an Employee Value Proposition survey and considered employee feedback in formulating its value proposition, including changes to compensation and benefits offerings such as sick leave enhancements for primary employees and improvements to our facilities, including the roll-out of personal dignity spaces.
