In a series of three electronics sector sheets, three high-risk phases in the electronics supply chain are discussed: metal mining, the manual production in low-wage countries, and the disposal of electronic products (‘e-waste’). This sheet is devoted to e-waste. The electronics sector as a whole is characterised by long and global supply chains with high levels of outsourcing. These sector sheets aim to provide information to socially responsible investors about the environmental and social risks present in these supply chains. The series is an additional tool to support their engagement with electronics companies.
