Sustainability requirements: Paramount's sustainability approach emphasizes environmental responsibility within its supply chain, particularly addressing Scope 3 emissions. Suppliers are expected to comply with all environmental laws and regulations and are encouraged to align with Paramount's sustainability values. Paramount is working to gather primary emissions data from suppliers to enhance Scope 3 emissions tracking, using the GHG Protocol and moving toward Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) goals. Sustainable sourcing and procurement policies guide supplier selection, with an emphasis on sourcing environmentally responsible products and services. In 2023, Paramount integrated ESG criteria into Requests for Proposals, requiring suppliers to disclose sustainability initiatives and emissions data.
