3Com Corporation is committed to sustainable environmental management and to providing a safe, healthy and productive work environment for its employees throughout the world. Since it was founded almost three decades ago, the company has been putting its ideals into action. Our business goals, the 3Com Values Statement and the company’s Environmental Health and Safety Policy align with each other. They guide our daily activities and our ability to bring to market award-winning products and solutions, year after year.

3Com seeks to preserve and protect the vital natural resources of clean air, water and land. To this end, 3Com is committed to the reduction of waste, pollution and overall consumption of water, as well as to the efficient usage of energy. 3Com endeavors to identify opportunities to minimize the negative impact on the environment of its activities, products and processes.

I’m proud to be able to say that 3Com employees actively share the company’s commitment to identifying environmental hazards and developing solutions to alleviate them. Together we work to achieve the following goals:

• Monitor performance through the collection and analysis of environmental health and safety data
• Identify, assess and prioritize opportunities to improve environmental performance and reduce workplace risks
• Incorporate environmental health and safety considerations, wherever possible, into the planning and design of 3Com facilities and operations, products and packaging
• Implement pollution prevention and other environmental considerations, wherever practical and feasible, into 3Com daily business practices
• Develop programs to foster environmental stewardship among employees, customers and suppliers
• Measure our environmental goals against actual performance
• And of course, comply with all applicable laws and regulations

We appreciate the support of our channel partners as together we work to bring 3Com customers high-value solutions that support our commitment to environmental health and safety.
