Corporate
Responsibility
Report
At Intel, we never stop looking for bold ideas in technology,
business, manufacturing, and corporate responsibility.
In this report, we discuss our corporate responsibility performance during 2009, including
our strategic approach to key environmental, social, and governance indicators. This report
was prepared using the Global Reporting Initiative* (GRI) G3 guidelines, and we self-declare
the report at the GRI Application Level A.
L e tt e r f r o m o u r C EO

Corporate responsibility is about doing the right things right. Throughout Intel’s history, we have
focused on building an ethical culture, reducing our environmental impact, investing in our employees,
and engaging with our communities. Our approach has created value not only for our stakeholders and
society, but also for Intel. We have reduced costs through energy conservation investments, minimized
risk by proactively working with our communities and supply chain, and enhanced our reputation as a
leading corporate citizen by building trusted relationships around the world.

In 2009, we continued to invest in our corporate responsibility priorities, despite difficult eco- to partner with governments and educators to develop and implement programs that

About Performance Graphs: Throughout this section, we have included graphs for some of the key indicators that we use to manage our environmental, health, and safety
performance. For close to 20 years, our senior managers have reviewed these indicators on a regular basis. We report our performance both in absolute terms and on the
basis of a “per unit of production” or “per chip” normalized production index (NPI). The NPI is derived directly from our worldwide wafer production and is indexed to a
baseline year of 1999 (NPI = 100 for baseline year 1999), with the exception of our greenhouse gas emissions and energy use indicators, which use a baseline year of 2000.
Access the Report Builder
With this direct correlation to Intel’s global manufacturing levels, the NPI enables year-to-year comparisons and supports trending comparisons. References to “per chip”
2009 Corporate Responsibility Report assume a typical chip size of 1 cm2, but actual chips vary in size depending on the specific product. In 2009, manufacturing output was significantly reduced to match lower
demand, a result of the worldwide economic downturn. Because of this, many of the normalized environmental indicators that we track saw steep increases in 2009, leading
www.intel.com/go/responsibility
to atypical results. As manufacturing volumes rise, it is expected that these normalized indicators will return to their historical ranges. Underlying data for the performance

United Nations Global Compact—Communication on Progress 2009


In June 2009, Intel became a member of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC), a platform for encouraging and promoting good corporate principles and learning experiences in the areas of
human rights, labor, environment, and anti-corruption. The UNGC principles have been engrained in our approach to corporate responsibility and business practices for many years. As noted by our
President and CEO, Paul Otellini, in his opening letter to this report, our ongoing support of the UNGC reinforces our commitment to corporate responsibility leadership.

As part of our commitment to the UNGC, we have mapped the principles with the relevant discussions in the report, which detail our actions and progress made against the principles during 2009,
including our work with other organizations in these areas. In addition to our commitment to promote the UNGC principles in our operations, Intel will continue to support the UNGC in its work to
expand country networks.

courses, including those covering anti-corruption. Approximately 13,000 employees were trained on our anti-corruption policies
and procedures in 2009.
