3rd party audits for manufacturing sites are done every 30 months and managed through an internal audit-management system. A formal report is issued and corrective actions are tracked until successfully closed.
Non-manufacturing facilities (labs and R&D) have 3rd party audits on an average of two sites per year. Reports are issued and monitored until successfully closed.

Team member training is conducted regularly worldwide to ensure all team members have the knowledge and skills needed to control and minimize environmental risks.

NXP's data-management system tracks and calculates our environmental performance per facility. EHS conducts a monthly validation of reported data for every facility that a) we own, rent or lease and manage, b) has 50 or more team members, and c) is in our financial reporting.
Validation consists of the following steps:
EHS also conducts internal data audits of the manufacturing sites as well as the larger office and R&D sites. The audits check for proper reporting procedures and data trails.
