Lexmark’s sustainability strategy is reviewed by the executive leadership team led by the CEO. The team is supportive of goals and the activities and projects that take place to meet these aggressive targets. The Lexmark Board of Directors also reviews our sustainability strategy and receives education and regular updates from the Chief Sustainability Officer. The board of directors’ Finance and Audit Committee oversees environmental, social and governance (ESG) topics as well as risks, opportunities and impacts related to climate change.

Lexmark CSR Policies are in place to provide guidance and requirements to be followed by employees and certain partners/stakeholders. These policies cover corporate social responsibility topics including human rights, due diligence and the precautionary approach. The policies incorporate our vision and values and apply to business activities and relationships globally. Corporate ESG leaders determine the need and content of the policies, which the CEO and/or his direct reports review. The ESG leaders are also accountable for the policy commitments. Lexmark's policies are posted externally and internally on intranet sites and in prominent areas on site.
