About This Report
This report addresses stakeholder concerns for our citizenship governance practices and commitment to our employees, the environment, and society. It reflects our thinking and progress to date on the issues that affect the sustainability and health of our business and society, and describes the tangible benefits of our citizenship activities.
It covers key social and environmental performance information for fiscal year 2006 (FY2006) for Cisco, excluding our Scientific Atlanta and Linksys subsidiaries (the former because it was acquired in February 2006, too recently to be included, and the latter because it is operated independently). All currency references are represented in U.S. dollars unless otherwise indicated.
We have prepared this report with the guidance of current Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) guideliness; the UN Global Compact; and feedback from our employees, shareholders, customers, partners, and the community of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs).
We believe that this information is a faithful representation of our business operations, presented in the context of our social and economic responsibility to our employees, shareholders, customers, partners, and the communities in which we operate.
