As a values-based company, we are deeply committed to our corporate responsibilities. Our culture is centered on our Purpose, Vision, and Mission Statement, and our Guiding Values. We design our policies, procedures and systems to align with these high standards. Our Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program is designed to align with our values and sustainability objectives and our goal to serve as a good corporate citizen, especially in the communities in which we operate.
Microchip’s "Professional Ethics and Social Responsibility are Practiced" Guiding Value requires that all employees, directors and officers comply with all applicable laws and regulations and abide by our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (Code of Conduct) and associated policies. Our Code of Conduct establishes how to behave ethically in a broad range of business situations.
Microchip’s Supplier Code of Conduct expressly communicates our expectation of lawful and ethical behavior throughout our supply chain. Microchip’s Supplier Code of Conduct incorporates the Responsible Business Alliance (RBA) Code of Conduct standards for labor, health and safety, the environment and ethics for our supply chain.

This policy sets out the fundamental principles embedded in our business operations and culture to promote human rights. We have also included information on Microchip's Position on Sales to Russia in light of its invasion of the Ukraine, and about our trade controls program.
