Better Health for All

First Sensor AG develops and manufactures sensor solutions for various industries, including medical applications such as respiratory, sleep diagnostic, anesthetic, dialysis, and imaging equipment.

While these medical applications inherently provide health benefits, the provided articles do not offer a quantitative breakdown of the company's product portfolio or revenue by industry segment (e.g., percentage of products or revenue from medical applications versus industrial or transportation applications). Therefore, it is not possible to assess the net health effect of the firm's principal goods or services against the rubric's quantitative thresholds. Additionally, no evidence is provided for other KPIs such as harmful revenue share, price accessibility, vulnerable reach, risk transparency related to health, health innovation investment, health externalities, health equity programs, healthcare workforce support, preventative health measures, healthcare data responsibility, global health crisis response, or mental health initiatives. The safety record provided refers to employee safety (TRIR of 0.3 per 100 employees), which falls outside the scope of this value, as explicitly stated in the value definition.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

First Sensor AG, a manufacturer of sensor solutions, does not operate in the financial services sector.

The provided articles focus on general corporate responsibility, environmental performance, and ethical conduct, but contain no information regarding lending, insurance, or other financial products or services. Consequently, all KPIs under the 'Fair Money & Economic Opportunity' value are not applicable, as the company does not offer consumer credit products, manage customer financial data, or engage in financial inclusion initiatives.

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

First Sensor AG is not bound by collective wage agreements group-wide, with only one Berlin location having a time-limited agreement, indicating very low union coverage.

The company's 2018 Code of Conduct states a commitment to complying with national laws on working hours and prohibiting forced and child labor, and paying at least minimum legal requirements. The Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) was 5.5 per 200,000 hours in 2020. In terms of pay equity, the proportion of women in overall management positions was 25.27% in 2020, and 26.53% in higher-level management, which is lower than desired. The company's remuneration system is designed to be gender-neutral and based on performance and market rates, aiming for equal pay for equal work. No specific quantitative data is available for living wage coverage, CEO-median pay ratio, worker engagement score, turnover rate, labor violation incidents, insecure contract share, or health insurance coverage.

Kind to Animals

No specific, concrete evidence was found in the provided articles to score First Sensor AG against any of the 'Kind to Animals' KPIs. The company manufactures sensors, and the articles do not provide information on animal testing, animal-derived ingredients, animal agriculture, or specific animal welfare policies or audits relevant to its operations or supply chain. While supplier audits are mentioned, they are explicitly for worker treatment, safety, and human rights, not animal welfare.

The company's involvement in the ClearFarm project relates to developing sensor technology for monitoring animal welfare on farms, which is a product offering, not an internal animal welfare practice or policy of First Sensor AG itself.

No War, No Weapons

The company adheres to international standards including the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, as stated in its 2023 CSR report.

Its 2019 Supplier Code of Conduct requires suppliers to notify recipients if delivered goods are subject to dual-use regulations, and to take appropriate actions to prevent the use of conflict resources, specifically mentioning an import ban on resources from conflict regions like Congo, Rwanda, Uganda, and Burundi, and compliance with Dodd-Frank Act Section 1502. The Supplier Code also recommends the use of the Conflict-Free Sourcing Initiative's CMRT template for information on smelters and refineries. TE Connectivity, the parent company, reported in its 2024 Conflict Minerals Report that approximately 60% of its covered products contained 3TG (tin, tantalum, tungsten, and gold), with 2% identified as high risk, and 22.2% of high-risk parts remediated.

Planet-Friendly Business

First Sensor AG reported total Scope 1 and 2 emissions of 1,062 tCO₂e in 2024 (222 tCO₂e for Scope 1 and 840 tCO₂e for Scope 2).

However, Scope 3 emissions were not reported. The company's energy consumption in 2024 was 13,748,089 kWh, with no indication of renewable energy sources. Water consumption in 2024 was 45,793 m³ against a revenue of €121.4 million, equating to approximately 377 m³ per €1 million revenue. In 2023 and 2024, 0% of revenue, capex, and opex were aligned with the EU Taxonomy. The company reported no environmental compliance violations in 2024 requiring Supervisory Board reporting.

Respect for Cultures & Communities

The First Sensor AG CSR Report 2023 () explicitly states that it "does not provide specific data on formal partnerships with indigenous or local communities, revenue reinvested in local community development, cultural appropriation incidents, cultural impact assessment protocols, local employment ratios, grievance mechanisms, complaint resolution times, FPIC participation rates, community governance inclusion, cultural preservation investment, local procurement share, indigenous supplier count, cultural site protection, social license to operate, charitable giving to cultural heritage organizations, community fund allocation, language inclusivity, cultural incident response, or cultural training completion."

No other provided articles offer specific, quantitative data for SIS.XETRA regarding any of the KPIs related to Respect for Cultures & Communities. Information pertaining to the parent company, TE Connectivity, is not explicitly attributed to SIS.XETRA's specific operations or local community impacts.

Safe & Smart Tech

First Sensor AG states that data is erased when no longer needed, subject to legal retention periods, which aligns with standard data retention practices.

The company explicitly states compliance with GDPR, German, and EU regulations, including the German Corporate Governance Code and IFRS. It also mentions integrating the TE Code of Conduct into its compliance management system and conducting quarterly risk assessments for regulatory risks. No specific evidence was found for other KPIs related to Safe & Smart Tech, such as data breach severity, cybersecurity investment, or AI ethics governance.

Zero Waste & Sustainable Products

First Sensor AG has reported no waste disposal violations in the past three years. The company has reduced paper consumption to essentials and plans to further reduce it through electronic archiving.

However, the company does not provide formal waste reduction targets, only vague statements about being part of TE Connectivity's strategy which includes waste reduction goals. The company provides customers with information on responsible disposal of products.
