larations. By adhering to regulatory rules and guidelines, Na-
patech ensures that its products are free from specific hazardous
substances that can cause significant harm to the environment
and human health. When improperly disposed of, these sub-
stances can pollute our land, air, and water, posing serious envi-
ronmental challenges. Furthermore, Napatech’s conformance
with environmental regulations is a testament to our commit-
ment to environmental responsibility. For example, the REACH
regulation is designed to protect human health and the environ-
ment from potential risks posed by chemicals. By complying with
REACH, we ensure that the substances we use during manufac-
turing and in our products for the market are safe for both hu-
mans and the environment.
structured Employee Development Interviews and increased the
number of one-on-one employee satisfaction interviews. Em-
ployee satisfaction surveys are carried out every third year as
part of the mandatory health and safety risk assessment.
Our latest employee satisfaction survey from 2022 placed us well
above the benchmark level overall. We detected that some of-
fices were exposed to heat during the summer, so we have fitted
sun protection to meet the challenges with heat. Furthermore,
in 2024, we continued to pay attention to the ergonomic area
and offered all employees counseling to prevent injuries due to
sedentary computer work.
In 2024, Napatech continued our focus on the physical working
environment, including stress and harassment, and launched a
harassment policy to ensure a healthy and safe working environ-
ment where employees can thrive and feel secure. This is for pre-
ventative reasons and to contribute to a good tone of communi-
cation. In addition, we implemented initiatives to reduce the
noise from our server labs.
Furthermore, we work closely with our contract manufacturer in
the US to improve their environmental performance through
more efficient resource use and waste reduction. On our re-
quest, our contract manufacturer is ISO 14001 certified. In four
meetings during 2024, we continued discussing the initiatives
under their environmental management system with our con-
tract manufacturer to evaluate the effectiveness of the pro-
cesses.
Napatech's 94 full-time employees, as of December 31st, 2024,
including eight women (9%), compared to eight (10%) in 2023. In
general, Napatech wants to increase the presence of women
throughout the organization. Our efforts are focused on improv-
ing work-life balance as one way to attract more female appli-
cants. It is, however, always the candidate who is deemed best
suited for a position that will be offered the position. It has been
difficult to raise the presence of women in the organization as
women are significantly underrepresented in the workforce the
group is recruiting within.
