Better Health for All

Lotus Technology Inc.'s core products are all-electric vehicles, which inherently reduce air pollution and contribute to public health. The Eletre model monitors in-cabin carbon dioxide, PM2.5, air humidity, and other pollutants, providing direct health benefits to occupants.

The company has no revenue from products with direct negative health impacts. The Eletre is designed to meet global five-star crash safety requirements, is equipped with an intelligent anti-roll control system, and restricts over 200 categories of potentially harmful substances. Wuhan Lotus Cars Co., Ltd. obtained ISO 26262: 2018 Automotive Functional Safety ASIL D Product Certification and passed several EU and UN regulatory safety tests. However, the company reported 1 work-related injury and 2 lost days in 2022, and 0 fatalities. The company's luxury vehicles are not accessible to low-income or marginalized populations, making 'price_accessibility' and 'vulnerable_reach' not applicable. While Lotus Tech identifies climate change risks under the TCFD framework and has established risk management measures, there is no evidence of public disclosure or marketing about the health risks and benefits of its products. The company has acquired 193 patent authorizations and 386 patent applications as of December 31, 2022, and operates 5 R&D centers, but no specific percentage of R&D budget is allocated to improving health outcomes or accessibility. Lotus Tech aims for carbon neutrality by 2038, and its Eletre model reduces CO2 emissions by over 200 kg per 150,000 km, but there is no evidence of direct positive health externalities from its operations. The company has diversity goals and provides assistance with school enrollment for employees' children, but these are not health equity programs for external vulnerable populations. Lotus Tech provides social insurance, commercial insurance, supplementary medical insurance, quarterly benefits, holiday benefits, birthday benefits, physical examinations, and mental health services for its employees. In 2023, it established care incentive funds for employees and their families. Lotus Tech has an information security management system grounded in ISO/IEC 27001, and Wuhan Lotus Technology Co., Ltd. has secured ISO/IEC 27001 certification and passed EU R155 and R156 certifications. In 2022, there were 0 complaints concerning information security, data security, or privacy protection incidents. The company provides mental health services for employees, including dedicated health consulting positions and employee assistance programs. Lotus Tech sponsors university teams and provides technical guidance, but this is not public health education. The company's products do not have addiction potential.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

In 2022, Lotus Technology Inc. reported one work-related injury, resulting in two lost days, and zero fatalities.

Based on 2,913 full-time employees, this translates to a TRIR of approximately 0.033 per 200,000 hours. The company's employee turnover rate in 2022 was 16.6%. For the 2022 reporting period, no substantiated labor-law or human-rights violations were reported, and there were no incidents of discrimination.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

No quantitative data was provided in the articles for any of the Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing KPIs.

The company's 2022, 2023, and 2024 ESG reports, along with its Supplier Code of Conduct, mention commitments to a sustainable supply chain, supplier management, evaluation measures, and training. However, these documents do not include specific metrics for fair trade certification share, audit frequency, forced or child labor incidents, traceability coverage, remediation speed, ethical clause coverage, materials risk index, or supplier diversity spend.

Kind to Animals

The company manufactures electric vehicles, and the provided articles focus on environmental sustainability, carbon neutrality, and material minimization. While there are mentions of 'Nature Positive' initiatives and participation in global sustainability frameworks like the UN Global Compact, there is no specific evidence regarding animal welfare practices, animal testing, the use of animal-derived materials, or investments in animal-free alternatives in their products or supply chain.

Therefore, no KPIs under the 'Kind to Animals' value can be scored based on the available information.
