OVERSIGHT AND ADMINISTRATION IN GOVERNANCE

Motion recognizes the key to a successful sustainability program is determined by the strength of the governance that embodies it:

Of these initiatives, we will highlight our Supplier Program as part of our inaugural 2021 reporting and add others as our reporting develops.

Under the leadership of Genuine Parts Company, our governance programs are tightly integrated and reflective of strategy and planning, including corporate risk management. In addition, Motion is also working on key projects to better govern and report on material items to our customers, such as Value Chain Management. We are implementing a new initiative that will allow greater transparency into our value chain and provide reportable metrics on human rights, ethics, sustainable sourcing, and environmental responsibility.

ETHICS REPORTING

Motion requires all teammates to complete ethics training, both as part of the onboarding process and annually throughout their time with the company. Leaders and managers are responsible for reinforcing the Code of Conduct throughout our business units and at all levels of the organization. At Motion, we strive to work with integrity and honesty in all situations. We have institutionalized this to the level that working ethically is one of our four core values. Integrity is the foundation of trust upon which our reputation is built.

To that end, we provide an ethics hotline for reporting concerns, such as:

The system is neutral, administered by a third party, and available 24/7/365 via phone or online. In addition, we have a zero-tolerance policy against any nature of retaliation for whistleblowing.
