Varex Imaging Corp

ISIN: US92214XAC02 | United States | North America
Score 1 - Limited
Full assessment

Varex Imaging has a constrained governance framework for lobbying that does not extend to climate-related issues. The company states that "Varex does not have a government relations or lobbying function," and that "as part of our conflict-of-interest policy, the Company does not give political donations globally," while it "indirectly make[s] our voices heard" through trade associations. It describes internal controls by noting that "only a limited number of individuals are authorized to engage in efforts to discuss legislation or government policy with political officials," and that employees "are encouraged to consult the legal department for support," complemented by annual training for interacting with government officials. However, we found no evidence of a named individual or formal body overseeing these activities, no policy to align lobbying with climate goals, and no mechanism to monitor or manage association positions, indicating limited oversight and no climate-specific governance.
