Fighting climate change
Forcepoint supports Corporate Social Responsibility and Environmental, Social and Governance initiatives through a variety of measures, policies and procedures supported by leaders and teams with appropriate subject matter expertise. As an information technology company without traditional manufacturing operations or real estate ownership supporting product development/services, our focus on “environment” is associated with sustainability initiatives.
Forcepoint implements reasonable steps to maximize office environment energy efficiency through flexible work arrangements. A large portion of employees are classified as “remote” workers (work from home fulltime) or flex workers (two-days maximum in office per week). This initiative is permanent and will not change once COVID-19 restrictions are removed. Since 2020, Forcepoint seeks to minimize commercial office space footprint. Forcepoint remains steadfast in supporting environmental sustainability through environmentally responsible programs: e-wastes, recyclables and decreasing energy consumption.
Measures and documents in place to support ESG concepts include, but are not limited to:
• Hired fulltime Environmental, Health & Safety (EHS), Principal under the Global Real Estate & Facilities (GRE&F) organization in 2020.
• Flexible work arrangements reduce carbon footprint via decreased transportation emissions and impact on environmental resources required to support commercial office spaces. (HR policy: employee work environment guidelines as core component of Forcepoint’s standard work model supporting sustainable, effective work environment.).
• Office lighting systems sensors designed to automatically shut off overhead lighting based on lack of motion.
• Recycle waste bins throughout offices. Company programs include recycling measures: paper (e.g., shred bins), cardboard, cans, bottles, electrical waste, light bulbs, and batteries.
• Shared multifunctional printer stations reducing paper consumption.
• Custodial services utilizing sustainable cleaning solutions.
• IT e-waste initiatives: partner pick-up, destruction and certification.
• IT “Bring Your Own Device Policy” decreases company-issued IT devices and e-waste.
• Reducing IT footprints moving from onsite data centers/server rooms to cloud and co-location model. - Covid-19 recovery

Forcepoint implemented Site Incident Support Teams (“SIST”) for each major site. The SIST includes a designated site leader along with representatives from Facilities, Human Resources and IT and will be responsible for facilitating local response to any crisis situation, including COVID-19. As we begin office reopening efforts, the SIST will lead site-level efforts, including ensuring overall governance in line with local requirements. - Tackling economic inequality
