Introduction Our Strategy Environmental Social Governance

FELLOW STAKEHOLDERS,
This time last year, we published our first ever Concentrix Sustainability Report. As we set out on this journey, we wanted
to reimagine what our impact could be, focused on our core belief that “you can never underestimate the power of
ONE.” We renewed and deepened our commitments to care for the environment to leave it better than we found it,
create a better place for people to work and live in the communities where we operate, and to act with integrity and do 20

the right thing. Always. Pres nt’s Cl
ide

Now, 12 months later, we get to reflect on what we have been able to achieve through the Power of ONE Concentrix.
Every day individuals and teams around the world are stepping up, giving back, and sharing their time and talents
to make a difference. From recycling efforts with proceeds that help protect the environment, to efforts that ensure
children have access to quality education, and standing up for what is right for our staff. This is the power of ONE in
action and it is truly humbling.

In this report we will share updates on some of the stories that we featured last year, as well as new stories of people
who are truly making a difference. And once again, we are proud to feature photos taken by our talented staff to bring
these stories to life. As you read on, we will take you on a journey through the powerful, positive difference our 290,000+

Climate
We’ve made great progress across the board to date. In some cases, we’ve even significantly exceeded our targets, like reducing our CO2 by 45K MT versus
an initial goal of 25K MT. Because of the hard work of all our people who’ve helped us on our green mission, we are now aiming to do right by our planet and
future generations by increasing our goal to 50K MT. We have also taken more than 10K cars off the road due to our work-from-anywhere model, and are
committing to a new goal of reducing commuting emissions by 50%. In addition, we are setting a more challenging goal to source 30% of our power from
renewable energy by 2025, compared to our original goal of 10%.

Reducing Our Power Consumption


Last year we set out to significantly reduce our power consumption by 25K metric tons.
Over the past year we have more than exceeded our initial targets by converting more #MyOneEarthPromise
than half our facilities to LED lighting, shifting to more energy efficient equipment and
sustaining our work-at-home footprint. We are now ready to set bigger and bolder goals
to even further impact our commitment to playing a part in reducing our global power
consumption.

Renewable Energy
Running our business on renewable energy can go a long way towards reducing our
environmental impact. So we designed our initial goal to be significant on both a local
and collective global scale. Over the next few pages you will read about how we shifted
to renewable energy where possible and worked with our landlords to exceed our initial
renewable energy goals. Now we are ready to make even bigger commitments for 2025.

We are making great progress on our waste goals and are on track to meet our 2025 targets following major successes with our initiatives throughout 2021.
We have recycled over 200,000 lbs. of paper and fitted 76% of sites with water refilling stations to eliminate single-use plastic bottles. We are maintaining
focus on our original goals and you will read about some great examples in the next few pages on how our teams are making impacts in their local
communities.

Recycling
We’ve made great progress to recycle more materials wherever possible across our
business and contribute to the reduction of our waste on a local and global scale. Read on
to see how we have created multiple recycling partnerships around the world, covering
everything from composting in India and the Philippines to recycling in Australia and
Nicaragua. We’re now well on our way to completing our initial paper recycling goal and
making progress towards our e-waste goal.

help of these new systems, our people create compost that’s
used in our on-site green gardens and public green spaces, and
eventually, staff will be able to take the compost home to use in
their own gardens!
In nine of our sites in the Philippines, we have implemented the
Bokashi composting method, where food scraps and organic waste
are sealed in an airtight container with “Bokashi bran,” a compost
accelerator that breaks the waste down quickly. Periodically, liquid is
drained off from the containers until the food scraps are fermented
and ready to be composted. The locally-made Bokashi bran
is inoculated with good microorganisms that aid in the
fermentation and pickling of food scraps. Our compost is
delivered and used as fertilizer around local urban
farms, and we are looking to expand the
program in the future!

Pla Developed in partnership with Quezon City local government and local

vacant two square kilometer lot. The idea is not simply to provide food
aid, but to equip people with skills and opportunities which enable
them to become self-sufficient.
Once the site was secured, we donated tools and seedlings to
kickstart the program. Since the project began, Concentrix
staff have held donation drives and food sales, donated
female care kits for International Women’s Day, and
contributed hundreds of volunteer hours.
At a time when the pandemic was threatening
many families’ incomes, Sunnyville Farm is already
supporting over 70 families. And Concentrix is

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) is vital to creating and maintaining a successful workplace; one founded on the principle that all people
can thrive personally and professionally. Our emphasis, and cultural efforts to promote DEI are an essential component to how we
operate internally and externally.
Every day, we celebrate the diversity of our staff by fostering an environment that welcomes and respects every individual so they can
grow to be the best version of themselves. Through our Staff Resource Groups (SRGs), fireside chats, webinars, and other activities and
initiatives, we help our people to connect, spread awareness about important causes, and improve the diversity and inclusivity of our
workplace.

DEI is deeply valued, and purposely embedded into the DNA at Concentrix. It’s a
fundamental aspect of our ability to cultivate a nurturing and supportive environment
for all staff, creating a culture where everyone is affirmed, feels seen, heard and
appreciated for their remarkable contributions. When we strive to instill a more in-
depth understanding of our uniqueness, that uniqueness is embraced and celebrated.
Here’s what DEI means to us:

Staff Resource Groups


Staff Resource Groups (SRGs) play an essential role in ensuring our people’s voices are heard. These voluntary, staff-led groups—which include the Network of Women (NOW), the Black Professionals Network (BPN),
PRIDE, and ABILITY (People with Disabilities)—serve as a resource for our people to connect, spread awareness about the causes that matter to them most, and help us improve the diversity and inclusivity of our
workplace. As we invest in our people, we acknowledge that DEI also supports the development of our staff. For our utilization of NOW to diversify our global workforce and provide additional opportunities for career
growth, we earned, for the fourth time, a Gold Brandon Hall award for Excellence in Diversity and Inclusion Strategy.

Ethics + Compliance
Doing good runs deep in our DNA at Concentrix, and we are wholly invested in integrity and ethical business conduct with every decision we make. Our staff commit to ethical behavior annually, and we take every
action possible to only work with like-minded clients, vendors, and partners who both align with our high standards of ethical business conduct and believe in its importance. As you continue reading this report, you’ll
learn more about how we work hard on a global scale to keep the data in our care safe, represent our communities with compassion and care, ensure human rights are respected through every step of our business
journey, and set clear expectations of integrity in everything we do.

Code of Ethical Business Conduct (COEBC)


Our COEBC is an important guide on how we govern our business and act with integrity always. Each year, we ask everyone in our organization to review our COEBC, achieving very near to 100% acknowledgment by
our staff, a real indication of the importance of ethics from the top down in our company.
In fiscal year 2019, the sign-off rate was 99.98%. In the midst of the COVID pandemic in fiscal year 2020, sign-off was 97% and we are proud to report that in fiscal year 2021 we reached a sign-off rate of 99.55% from our
staff around the world, affirming their commitment to ethical behavior.

Anti-Corruption
We have zero tolerance for bribery, kickbacks, or any other form of corruption. Staff are prohibited
from accepting or offering any form of improper payment when conducting our business, and
our COEBC emphasizes strict compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the United
Kingdom Anti-Bribery Act, and similar laws around the world.
Our COEBC also requires that business decisions be made free from conflicts of interest. All staff,
regardless of level, are prohibited from exploiting their position for personal gain and are required
to report any actual or apparent conflicts that could interfere with acting in the company’s best
interests.

Our
By taking such a strong stance against corruption, we aim to assure our people, clients, and
shareholders that doing good is in our DNA, through and through.

Commitment Whistleblower Program

for 2025:
We encourage staff to help keep our company ethical not only through their actions, but by
reporting any misconduct through our whistleblower program. It provides multiple avenues
to report concerns anonymously, including a confidential website with multilingual reporting
capabilities that’s accessible 24 hours-a-day, 365 days-a-year. Staff can also submit concerns through

Managing risk is an important part of a corporation’s business dealings. We cannot be successful unless we know of
the risks in our business and how we can mitigate those risks. We undertake an enterprise risk management process
with our board of directors on an annual basis. These risks include all risks to the company including security, fraud,
cyber attacks, pandemics, business loss and all other types of risks that could affect a modern enterprise. While this is
an annual review with our board, our executive team also reviews risks on a more regular basis. It was through our risk
management process that we were able to turn very quickly to providing a fully remote working solution during the
COVID-19 pandemic for all of our 290,000+ staff worldwide, all while still supporting our clients in their businesses during
