For additional information about our business segments, including the wide variety of products manufactured in each segment, refer to Eaton's 2023 Form 10-K.
2.REASONABLE COUNTRY OF ORIGIN INQUIRY
Purchased raw materials and parts are varied and are sourced from many suppliers. Eaton has a substantial number of suppliers globally that span across our business segments. Our supply chain is multi-tiered, and Eaton is typically many levels removed from the mines, smelters and refiners. Therefore, Eaton must rely on its suppliers to provide information about the origin of the Minerals in its products. Some of Eaton’s products may contain the Minerals either from recycled sources or in their processed form.
For the reporting period from January 1 through December 31, 2023, Eaton conducted a good faith reasonable country of origin inquiry of the Minerals that are necessary to the functionality or production of the products that Eaton manufactured or contracted with others to manufacture during the reporting period. Based on this reasonable country of origin inquiry, Eaton was unable to conclude that these Minerals did not originate from Conflict Affected and High Risk Areas (CAHRAs) including the Democratic Republic of the Congo (the DRC) or adjoining countries. Accordingly, Eaton undertook due diligence measures on the source and chain of custody of the identified necessary Minerals.
3.DUE DILIGENCE
3.1 Design of Due Diligence
Our due diligence measures were designed to conform, in all material respects, with the due diligence framework set forth in The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas and the related Supplements for tin, tantalum, and tungsten and for gold. Pursuant to this framework, we undertook to: (a) establish company management systems, (b) identify and assess risks in our supply chain, (c) design and implement a strategy to respond to the risks identified, (d) support the development and implementation of independent third party audits of smelter and refiner sourcing, and (e) report on the results of our supply chain due diligence.
3.2 Due Diligence Measures Performed
a. Establishment of Company Management Systems
Eaton has taken steps to develop strong company management systems pertaining to the use of Minerals in our products and supply chain. These include the development of a conflict minerals policy, which is available at http://www.eaton.com/content/eaton/us/en-us/company/policies-and-statements/responsible-sourcing-of-conflict-minerals0.html. In addition, we have implemented an internal management reporting structure to manage and oversee Eaton’s conflict minerals activities consisting of a dedicated Conflict Minerals team and executive-level Conflict Minerals Steering Committee chaired by Eaton’s Vice President for Global Supplier Performance. We have also established formal requirements for suppliers related to the use and reporting of Minerals, including the implementation of a supplier conflict minerals solicitation process utilizing tools created by the Responsible Minerals Initiative (RMI) which includes the Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (CMRT). Through our policy and participation in RMI, Eaton is committed to responsible sourcing of Minerals from CAHRAs including the DRC and adjoining countries and requires suppliers and smelters or refiners to source responsibly from these regions. Finally, we maintain a global ethics e-mail address and telephone helpline (http://www.eaton.com/content/eaton/us/en-us/company/policies-and-statements/responsible-sourcing-of-conflict-minerals0.html) which can be used by employees, suppliers or other stakeholders to report any concerns relating to Eaton’s sourcing activities.
b. Identify and Assess Risks in our Supply Chain
As a downstream user of Minerals, Eaton is many layers removed from the mine or location from which the Minerals originated and the smelters and refiners which processed the Minerals. We solicited relevant suppliers using due diligence tools including the RMI’s CMRT. Our solicitation letter included an explanation of the Minerals and the related legal regulations, a request for suppliers to comply with the regulations and respond to us, and our contact information to direct any questions. Additional solicitation requests, including in additional languages beyond English, were sent to suppliers that did not respond or provide sufficient information. Through this process, during 2023 we solicited approximately 1,000 suppliers.
We verified the information provided by our suppliers (to the extent possible) by comparing it to the information shared on the RMI website and monthly plenary calls, and against CMRT acceptance criteria for completeness and consistency of responses. Through this process, for suppliers who provided names of smelters and refiners, we determined the conformance status of those supplier-reported smelters and refiners. For those suppliers who provided country of origin information for the Minerals, we confirmed the listed countries of origin for each smelter and refiner if that information was available from RMI.
c. Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks
Eaton’s strategy to respond to identified risks includes the development of a conflict minerals policy, referenced above. This policy is also included in Eaton’s Purchase Order Terms and Conditions and associated Supplier Code of Conduct (the Code). Both the Purchase Order Terms and Conditions and the Code are used to communicate requirements to our suppliers, including expectations relating to the use and sourcing of the Minerals. In particular, Eaton’s Purchase Order Terms and Conditions and associated Code require our suppliers to perform due diligence into their respective supply chains to determine whether products sold to us contain Minerals, and whether, and to what extent, the Minerals are sourced from smelters and refiners conformant to RMI’s Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP), and to report to Eaton the results of this due diligence. The Terms and Conditions and the Code are available on our website at https://www.eaton.com/us/en-us/company/selling-to-eaton.html.
Eaton monitors the information received from suppliers in response to our solicitations, and periodically shares summaries of this information with our Conflict Minerals Steering Committee. Eaton is a member of RMI (member Code EATN) and uses data from the RMI to determine the conformance status of supplier-reported smelters and refiners, as well as reported country of origin information related to the Minerals sourced from such smelters or refiners, if available. Through our membership in RMI, Eaton further supports several complementary programs such as iTSCi, LBMA, and RCS Global Group’s Better Mining Project, with which RMI collaborates to jointly address Minerals issues in CAHRAs including the DRC and adjoining countries.
Suppliers that are either non-responsive or provide incomplete or inconsistent responses to Eaton’s solicitations are escalated within Eaton’s Supply Chain Management organization for follow-up engagement. Responding suppliers reporting smelters and refiners that are non-conformant or have other identified red flags receive follow-up communication to remind them of Eaton’s expectations relating to the use and sourcing of Minerals as well as support and resources including training available to them through our membership in RMI. Corrective action plans are assigned as needed to ensure suppliers improve on their due diligence practices and comply with Eaton’s Purchase Order Terms and Conditions and the Code.
d. Support the Development and Implementation of Independent Third-Party Audits of Smelter and Refiner Sourcing
As a downstream user of Minerals, Eaton and its direct supply chain are many layers removed from the mine or location from which the Minerals originated and smelters and refiners that process the Minerals. Through our membership and participation in the RMI, we collaborate at a cross-industry level, and we continue to support the development and implementation of due diligence practices, the RMI Responsible Minerals Assurance Process (RMAP) and tools such as the CMRT. In addition, Eaton has contributed financially to RCS Global Group’s Better Mining program which has been recognized as a valid upstream assurance mechanism for its work to address risks associated with artisanal small mines.
e. Report on Supply Chain Due Diligence
Eaton publicly communicates our conflict minerals policy, due diligence activities and related supplier expectations on our website and in our Form SD and Conflict Minerals Report available at: http://www.eaton.com/content/eaton/us/en-us/company/policies-and-statements/responsible-sourcing-of-conflict-minerals0.html.
4.RESULTS OF REVIEW
For the reporting period of January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023, Eaton solicited approximately 1,000 suppliers to gather detailed information regarding the existence of the Minerals in products sold to us, as well as the origin and chain of custody of the Minerals, using the CMRT. Based on the information provided by Eaton’s suppliers and our own due diligence efforts through December 31, 2023, we do not have sufficient information to conclusively determine the countries of origin or chain of custody of Minerals in our products. A majority of our suppliers responded that their materials did not contain the Minerals, they used recycled materials, they were unable to determine whether the products they sold to us contained Minerals, or they were still in the process of evaluating the source of the Minerals in their products.
Based on the information provided by our suppliers, Eaton believes the smelters and refiners that may have been used to produce Minerals in Eaton’s products include those listed in Annex I. Based on information provided by our suppliers and information available from the RMI, Eaton believes that the countries of origin of Minerals processed by these smelters and refiners may include the countries listed in Annex II. Eaton found no reasonable basis for concluding that any Minerals known to be in its supply chain directly or indirectly financed or benefitted armed groups in CAHRAs including the DRC or surrounding countries.
5.STEPS TAKEN TO MITIGATE RISK
Eaton intends to continue to evaluate its due diligence program in accordance with the provisions of the Rule. In particular, we intend to annually review the criteria used to select suppliers for solicitation and to continue to engage with our suppliers to identify the Minerals used within our supply chain, as well as the origin and chain of custody of those Minerals. We intend to continue to engage with third party programs such as the RMI. Finally, to the extent any Eaton supplier is found to be using non-conformant smelters or refiners within its supply chain, Eaton intends to engage that supplier and re-communicate our requirement for suppliers to commit to comply with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas, as per Eaton’s policy.

*The list of possible countries of origin of Minerals processed by supplier-reported smelters and refiners is based upon RCOI information available from The Responsible Minerals Initiative. As a downstream manufacturer many tiers removed from the smelters/refiners and mines of origin, Eaton does not have sufficient information to conclusively determine the countries of origin or chain of custody of Minerals in our products.
