Introduction Transforming care Investing in our people Accelerating possibilities Protecting the environment Creating value responsibly Appendix Resiliency in the eye of the storm Across Boston Scientific, operational and climate resiliency efforts ensure the safety of our global workforce and the reliable delivery of our medical solutions to providers caring for patients. We continually assess potential vulnerabilities and take action wherever necessary to protect our people, facilities and supply chain. After Hurricane Maria devastated the Caribbean in 2017, we implemented critical infrastructure upgrades at our Dorado, Puerto Rico manufacturing site. It was an investment that proved invaluable when Hurricane Fiona hit the island in 2022 and global and local teams implemented proactive measures that kept disruption to a minimum. Days before Fiona made landfall, products were stocked and secured to ensure an uninterrupted supply chain, and we switched to independent water and power systems capable of providing us with up to two months of backup utilities and supplies. As part of our long-term risk management strategy, facility upgrades at our Dorado, Puerto Rico manufacturing site over the last five years included a hurricane roof, hurricane shutters and increased generator capacity. With the facility prepared, we proactively shut down and sent our 800 employees home to ensure their safety. We immediately confirmed that all our people and their families were safe as Fiona left the island, then turned “ We all pulled together, and the plan kept our people and operations protected, our focus to reopening. Our Dorado team rallied to resume while also ensuring our life-saving products made it to the patients who needed operations a day later, a testament to their perseverance them. Our teams were many steps ahead of the storm, looking out for all of us.” and a resiliency plan that left nothing to chance.
