ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL, AND GOVERNANCE OVERSIGHT
Our Board is committed to overseeing Whirlpool Corporation’s integration of environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) principles throughout the Company. Senior leaders in our product, sourcing, manufacturing, legal, communications, government relations, and technology functions comprise our Sustainability Steering Committee, which establishes and oversees the Company’s strategic priorities on relevant ESG issues. We have a responsibility to leave the world a better place now and for generations to come and we forge ahead as we’ve always done: doing the right thing, the right way, with integrity.
