Employee Resource Groups

In 2022, we:

• Established United Veterans, a new ERG which supports our active-duty and retired military veterans in the US
• Grew ERG membership overall, year-over-year, by 24%

Membership and participation in ERGs is open to all NXP team members, and global engagement is encouraged. Each ERG has defined mission/vision statements and goals, as well as executive oversight and sponsorship.

To track the progress of our growing ERGs, we measure membership, team-member engagement, and programming for each group. To measure employee experiences with the ERGs, team members provide direct feedback to ERGs through surveys sent to participants.

• Based on this feedback, 2022 performance by our ERGs increased by 18% compared to 2021.
• In 2022, the ERGs collectively hosted more than 100 events, including professional-development workshops, networking sessions, and cultural-awareness activities. For example, our Interconnection ERG celebrated Eid al-Adha by inviting team members to enjoy traditional Muslim food and learn more about the holiday.

In addition to planning events and organizing efforts within the countries and regions where they operate, NXP ERGs identify ways to partner across geographic sites and teams. An example of this collaborative effort is the company’s annual observation of International Women’s Day (IWD), which celebrates the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. In 2022, thousands of NXP team members around the world participated in more than 65 virtual and onsite IWD events. Another example of global collaboration is NXP’s first Pride flag-raising across our global sites. Additional annual observances celebrated by our ERGs include Black History Month, Pride Month, Hispanic Heritage Month, and Global Diversity Awareness Month.

NXP’s commitment to DE&I is also reflected in our collaboration with universities. We are committed to increasing representation of women and other under-represented groups in the communication material we use with universities and at career fairs. To promote recruiting from diverse talent pipelines, our ERGs collaborate with our internal Talent Acquisition Team.

For example, to support NXP’s aspirational goal to improve gender representation:

• The Women in NXP China chapter participated in a video campaign for new college graduates where they shared their experiences on NXP’s inclusive culture and development opportunities.
• In the EMEA region, we organized panel discussions with local female NXP engineers in March 2022, helping to connect female university students with role models.
• Another initiative, called “Women in Technology,” was started in 2022 in India. This is a year-long program, designed for women in engineering studies, that consists of specialized training by industry experts for a total of 50 women. The aim is to encourage young women and mentor them for a successful career in the industry.

Also, the Black Achievement and Leadership Team ERG partnered with National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE) chapters to host Leveling Up Workshops, an internally developed, career exploration workshop which provides guidance, support, and early access to tools, tips, and NXP resources to students.
