CONFLICT MINERALS REPORT 2024

Section 1: Introduction

This Conflict Minerals Report (this "Report") covers the period of January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, in compliance with Rule 13p-1 (the "Conflict Minerals Rule") under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"), the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") issued the Conflict Minerals Rule to require certain companies to disclose their use of conflict minerals if those minerals are "necessary to the functionality or production of a product" manufactured by those companies. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, those minerals include tin, tungsten, tantalum or gold (together, such minerals are referred to as "3TG"). Congress enacted the Conflict Minerals Rule due to concerns that the exploitation and trade of conflict minerals by armed groups is helping to finance conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo ("DRC") region. The Conflict Minerals Rule focuses on 3TG emanating from the DRC and nine adjoining countries (together, the "DRC Covered Countries").

Under the Conflict Minerals Rule adopted by the SEC, companies (including Lear Corporation) are required to publicly disclose their use of conflict minerals, including through filing a "conflict minerals report" as an exhibit to Form SD, the form created for conflict minerals disclosure.
Lear's Commitment to Responsible Materials Sourcing
Lear Corporation ("Lear" or the "Company") is a "downstream" company and is part of a global and complex supply chain, with several layers of manufacturers before reaching the smelters and refiners that may process 3TG that may ultimately be used in the products manufactured by Lear.

Lear does not have a direct business relationship with any smelters or refiners that process 3TG and does not directly purchase primary sourced 3TG minerals from mine sites. However, Lear cares about our impact on people and the planet and recognizes that sourcing responsibly is part of a broader approach to protecting the people and environments where we do business, as well as places far removed from our direct supply base.

At Lear, we believe the best way to deliver the highest quality products and services is to maintain a work environment that fosters collaboration, interaction, tolerance and respect. As champions of human rights, our "Human Rights Policy" clearly defines how we approach, govern and defend the dignity of people throughout our operations, the communities in which we operate, and our global supply chain.

Our Human Rights Policy is guided by the United Nations Global Compact, including its Ten Principles and Sustainable Development Goals, as well as the 1998 ILO Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work.

Exhibit 1.01

As discussed later in this Report, Lear requires the suppliers in its supply chain to comply with Lear's conflict minerals reporting requests, engage in due diligence of their respective supply chains and provide information regarding the origin of and facilities used to process the 3TG contained in the materials supplied to Lear. We ask suppliers to ensure that materials used in our products do not directly or indirectly provide funding to conflicts or human rights abuses. We endeavor to use only components with raw materials where extraction, transport, trade, processing and export are obtained from validated sources as a matter of principle, wherever practicable. We also look beyond our direct supply chain to promote appropriate sourcing measures, including the sourcing of the raw materials used in our products.

Most components that use 3TG are in our E-Systems electronics and electrical distribution systems and our Seating structures and mechanisms. Our latest product information is available on Lear's public domain https://www.lear.com/technology.
Section 2: Due Diligence Framework
The final Conflict Minerals Rule adopted by the SEC requires that an issuer of the report undertake a due diligence process and that such due diligence follow a nationally or internationally recognized due diligence framework. Because Lear's products, like those of many of its peers in the automotive industry, contain 3TG minerals, Lear also conducted a "Reasonable Country of Origin Inquiry" ("RCOI") regarding the origin of the 3TG minerals used in its products. Lear designed its due diligence measures to be in conformity, in all material respects, with the internationally recognized five-step due diligence framework established by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD"), the Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (the "OECD Guidance"), which satisfies the Conflict Minerals Rule requirements regarding due diligence.
The following provides a description of Lear's due diligence process:
2.1 OECD Step 1: Strong Management System
A.Conflict Minerals Sourcing Policy

Lear developed an enhanced "Responsible Materials Sourcing Policy" that is published on Lear's public website at: https://www.lear.com/. It is also contained in Attachment A to this Report.

The policy states that Lear will comply with the disclosure and reporting requirements of the Conflict Minerals Rule of the Dodd-Frank Act, as well as the rules of the SEC promulgated thereunder.

The policy also states that Lear requires legal and ethical sourcing of materials in its supply chain and imposes an obligation on Lear's suppliers to engage in due diligence of their respective supply chains to understand and report the content of the parts such suppliers provide to Lear.

3


Exhibit 1.01

The policy requires suppliers to perform due diligence on the source and chain of custody of their raw materials in accordance with all applicable laws, as well as the OECD Guidance and other relevant guidance.

The policy is also cited in our "Lear Supplier Sustainability Policy" describing Lear's pursuit to prevent the flow of funds to armed groups and conflicts as part of its broader sustainability objectives. The "Lear Supplier Sustainability Policy" is published on Lear's public website at https://www.lear.com/. It is also contained in Attachment B to this Report.

To reinforce the importance of alignment with and adherence to the “Lear Supplier Sustainability Policy,” Lear requires that all suppliers of products containing conflict minerals and raw materials identified in the Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (CAHRAs) [set forth in the OECD Guidance] implement and maintain their own responsible materials sourcing policies.

Lear’s Minimum Sustainability Requirements for Suppliers are contained in Attachment B.1 to this Report.

B.Internal Management Structure

Leadership Oversight

Lear's Board of Directors has assigned its Governance and Sustainability ("G&S") Committee oversight responsibility for Lear's environmental, social, and governance strategy and activities, including oversight of supply chain sustainability.

To further integrate sustainability into our business, Lear has added specific sustainability responsibilities to Senior Management. Our overall sustainability leadership is now led by the Senior Vice President and Chief Administrative Officer. He is supported by executive leaders across the spectrum of sustainability, including our Vice President – Global Sustainability.

Cross Functional Team

A cross functional team within Lear’s organization with leadership representatives collaborates to support the supply chain due diligence process undertaken by Lear related to the Conflict Minerals Rule. Representatives include Vice Presidents from Lear’s Sustainability, Purchasing, Ethics and Compliance, Legal, Engineering, Operations, Marketing and Communications, Sales and Quality teams.


4


Exhibit 1.01
The purpose of the Cross Functional Team is to ensure availability of resources necessary to support Lear's supply chain due diligence process related to the Conflict Minerals Rule. The team helps guide and influence Lear's policies and reporting, monitors the execution and effectiveness of Lear's due diligence process and collaborates to develop improvements to such process.

Report Findings to Designated Senior Management and Board of Directors

Lear's designated members of the Company's Senior Management and the Company's Board of Directors are provided an update relating to conflict minerals activities by the Sustainability team at least annually, or upon request.

C.Controls and Transparency Over the Mineral Supply Chain

Industry Driven Programs

The OECD Guidance encourages participation in industry-driven programs to establish an industry-wide system of controls and transparency over the mineral supply chain including either a chain of custody or a traceability system. As outlined in the OECD Guidance, Lear supports an industry initiative that validates smelters' or refiners' ("SORs") due diligence activities, such as the Responsible Minerals Initiative® ("RMI"®) of the Responsible Business Alliance. Lear is recognized in RMI under company member code "LEAR."

RMI validates SORs’ due diligence activities through its Responsible Minerals Assurance Process ("RMAP"). The RMAP uses an independent third-party assessment of SOR management systems and sourcing practices to validate conformance with RMAP audit standards. The assessment employs a risk-based approach to validate SORs' company-level management processes for responsible mineral procurement. Companies can then use this information to assess and make informed choices concerning their supply chains.
The RMAP standards are developed to meet the requirements of the OECD Guidance, Regulation (EU) 2017/821 of the European Parliament and the Dodd-Frank Act.

Lear actively participates in the Automotive Industry Action Group ("AIAG"), an automotive industry group whose members include original equipment manufacturers ("OEM") and "Tier" suppliers. Lear participates in periodic meetings and coordinates with AIAG through the Responsible Materials Work Group ("RMWG"), which was established to prepare suppliers for reporting that will enable compliance with provisions of the Conflict Minerals Rule. The RMWG created different subgroups to support specific initiatives to develop tools and resources to assist companies and their supply chain in the reporting processes. Lear joined the Smelter Engagement Team ("SET"), Supplier Communication, Industry Best Practices and Global Requirements & Raw

5


Exhibit 1.01
Materials Sourcing subgroups of the RMWG. Lear also participates in the RMI's SET. The SETs conduct research and outreach encouraging SORs to participate in the RMI which supports the validation of SORs management systems and due diligence process. Validation through the RMI evaluates chain of custody and/or traceability of the minerals from the mine to the SORs. This is the primary methodology for downstream suppliers (such as Lear) to have influence on the upstream supply base (such as the smelters and refiners).

D.Company Engagement with Suppliers

Lear has established an online supplier portal and communication resources to strengthen Lear's engagement with its suppliers.

The supplier portal is available at Lear's website at https://www.lear.com/suppliers. Suppliers receive communications via Lear's online supplier bulletin posted on this website.

The "Suppliers" tab on Lear’s website also serves as a supplier information portal that provides the supply chain the opportunity to view and access important Lear information and updated web guides for suppliers. Web guides are incorporated in the “Purchase Order Terms and Conditions” used by Lear when contracting with suppliers, and such web guides contain requirements in addition to those specifically set forth in the Terms and Conditions. Web guides include a “Global Requirements Manual and Code of Conduct for Suppliers” and contain information for suppliers regarding the Conflict Minerals Rules. Also, under the “Suppliers” tab, additional conflict minerals related documents are provided (e.g., Lear’s “Responsible Materials Sourcing Policy,” supplier expectations and communication requests to the supplier).

Suppliers may contact a Lear conflict minerals representative anytime via e-mail at: conflictminerals@lear.com.

All 3TG relevant suppliers are provided, on an annual basis, a communication letter that outlines reporting instruction and expectations. It also includes information on resources that may help suppliers with their reporting activities. A sample letter is contained in Attachment C to this Report.

Suppliers are required to ensure that their company and suppliers are not associated with any prohibited transactions, comply with all applicable legal requirements, and prevent incidents or conditions that may result in a violation of law and restrictions. These requirements are outlined further in Lear's enhanced "Human Rights Policy" that is contained in Attachment D to this Report.


6


Exhibit 1.01
E.Grievance Mechanism

The conflictminerals@lear.com mailbox is a mechanism available for any interested party to communicate their concerns/grievances regarding Lear's conflict minerals process.

This mailbox is checked daily for communications from interested parties.

In the event that a grievance is submitted via the mailbox, the Conflict Minerals Teams responsible review the contents of the grievance, discuss with appropriate Lear individuals from the Cross Functional Team to seek resolution and communicate back to the person submitting the grievance.

A process for reporting concerns has also been established for Lear employees or any other potentially affected party worldwide to report concerns on any potential risks associated with human rights or any other business risks. Reports can be made confidentially and anonymously via our Ethics & Compliance helpline (online or telephone), online complaint webform, email, a mobile intake app or regular mail. Further details on Lear standards associated with the reporting process can be found on Lear's Code of Business Conduct and Ethics located at https://ir.lear.com/corporate-governance. This information is also found in Lear's Annual Sustainability Report at https://www.lear.com/sustainability.


2.2 OECD Step 2: Identify and Assess Risk in Our Supply Chain

Lear engaged in a number of steps to identify which of its suppliers are known to have 3TG in their products and request that such suppliers complete a template to assist Lear in identifying and assessing risks in its supply chain. These steps included:

A.Identification of Suppliers and Point of Contact; Completion of RCOI

Lear utilizes the International Material Data System ("IMDS") to identify and assess risk of relevant suppliers that provide components to Lear, as an initial step. Lear communicates the conflict minerals reporting request by e-mail with its suppliers identified in the IMDS list known to have 3TG in their products.

The IMDS is a collective, computer-based material data system for the automotive industry to manage environmental relevant aspects of the different parts in vehicles.

Suppliers are requested to identify the individual(s) responsible for providing conflict mineral information for their company.

An RCOI is completed using the RMI's Conflict Minerals Reporting Template (the "CMRT"), which is described in further detail below.


7


Exhibit 1.01
RCOI is an inquiry regarding the origin of 3TG that is designed to determine where the minerals used by Lear's suppliers originated or if they are from recycled or scrap sources.

The CMRT was developed by the RMI as a standard reporting template for companies to use to facilitate disclosure and communication of information regarding SORs that provide material to a company's supply chain. It includes questions regarding a company's conflict minerals sourcing policy, engagement with its direct suppliers and a listing of the SORs the company and its suppliers use. In addition, the CMRT contains questions about the origin of conflict minerals included in suppliers' products, as well as about the due diligence conducted by suppliers.

B.    Assessment of Risk

Lear considers the following risk elements in its due diligence process:

Completeness of the submission of information by Lear's suppliers, especially for those suppliers known to have 3TG in their components.

Disclosure of SORs data and determination of whether SORs had been validated to be conformant with the RMI RMAP.

Consistency and accuracy of information by cross-checking suppliers’ reports with the IMDS data.

Presence of Conflict Minerals Sourcing Policy.

The CMRT Completion Guide, Smelter Facility Database of RMI and other available guidance across the industry, such as the AIAG Conflict Minerals Guides and Resources, are used to determine completeness and validity of submissions by analyzing the suppliers' answers to each question contained in the CMRT.

As questions arise regarding supplier submissions, Lear communicates by e-mail with the supplier for clarification and understanding.


2.3 OECD Step 3: Design and Implement a Strategy to Respond to Identified Risks

Lear's conflict minerals due diligence is an on-going and proactive process. Lear's strategy for identifying risks focused on the following:

An assessment of all responses received from suppliers in connection with the risk assessment process outlined in Section 2.2B. Supplier responses are categorized as follows: (i) accepted (meaning the response satisfied the requirements and

8


Exhibit 1.01
expectations set forth in the CMRT); (ii) inconsistent or incomplete (meaning the response contained inconsistent information when compared against known or existing IMDS data and clarification is required, or expected inputs are missing); and (iii) rejected (meaning the CMRT data is invalid or not presented in the required format). Categorizing a response is prompted by the completeness or quality of the answer and cross-checks undertaken by Lear. Suppliers are notified by e-mail of the status of their CMRT responses and if rejected, or if incomplete or inconsistent submissions, suppliers are asked to correct and resubmit.

A listing of SORs information provided to Lear by its supply chain is compiled. The listing contains both conformant SORs and those that are not yet validated to be conformant with RMAP. As noted, Lear supports the RMI and their independently verified list of conflict-free SORs through their RMAP smelter outreach.

2.4 OECD Step 4: Independent Third Party Audit of Supply Chain Due Diligence

As a downstream supplier, Lear does not have a direct relationship with 3TG smelters and refiners and does not perform or direct audits of these entities within its supply chain. Lear supports an independent third-party audit effort through our continued membership with RMI. Validation through the RMI evaluates chain of custody and/or traceability of minerals from the mine to the SORs. Through membership and continued participation, Lear supports and contributes to RMI's ongoing RMAP audit efforts.

Additionally, Lear collaborates with global third-party supply chain risk management solutions, such as [those offered by] NQC Ltd. and Prewave, to further assess and monitor direct and extended supply chain risks related to sustainability. This includes human rights and high-risk materials sourcing risks, such as conflict minerals.

As part of this initiative, Lear works with both internal and external stakeholders to implement a comprehensive supply chain risk management and monitoring system. This involves direct engagement with Lear’s supply base and on-site surveillance, as needed.

2.5 OECD Step 5: Report on Supply Chain Due Diligence

Lear prepares this Report and the associated Form SD and makes such documents available online at: https://ir.lear.com/sec.cfm.


Section 3: Due Diligence Measures Undertaken

In accordance with the OECD framework and industry best practices, Lear took the following measures during this reporting year to exercise due diligence on the source and chain of custody of conflict minerals as defined by Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Act and support expanded supplier outreach efforts to leverage responsible sourcing practices within Lear's supply base:

9


Exhibit 1.01
Utilized IMDS resources and Lear Purchasing supplier list to identify and assess risk of relevant suppliers that provide components to Lear. For 2024, a total of 718 suppliers were identified as in-scope for 3TG in their products.
Communicated the conflict minerals reporting requirements and instructions to all in-scope suppliers. The communication letter is contained in Attachment C to this Report.
Continued implementation of the risk assessment process outlined in Section 2.2B.
Utilized the RMI facility database tools and RCOI data resources to evaluate the SORs identified in Lear's supply chain and determine the status of such SORs.
Participated in the AIAG RMWG and RMI through periodic discussions and forums. Additionally, Lear enhanced collaboration with global industry workgroups by engaging with the European Association of Automotive Suppliers (“CLEPA”) and Drive+ of Drive Sustainability. These industry associations work towards promoting responsible materials sourcing and improving traceability at an industry-wide level.
Developed and began to implement an enhanced supplier risk management process that includes, among other things, prioritization of suppliers based on country and commodity risk. Our country risk score is based on certain indexes commonly used in the sustainability landscape. Our commodity risk analysis is based on, among other considerations, certain industry standards as well as applicable legal requirements. The minerals sourcing risk criteria covers the Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas (CAHRAs) [set forth in the OECD Guidance].
Supported the RMAP through continued engagement and participation with RMI.
Conducted smelter outreach through letter communications encouraging eligible SORs to participate in the RMAP audit process.
Leveraged the use of the Lear Global Suppliers Bulletin for periodic supplier outreach and communication of Lear policies and resources. See Lear’s latest Annual Sustainability Report for additional information.
Continued to improve disclosure transparency by including conflict minerals information and updates in Lear's Annual Sustainability Report.

Section 4: Continuous Improvement Efforts to Mitigate Risk

In connection with the findings of our latest due diligence efforts, we plan to take the following actions to further enhance our due diligence process and further mitigate the risk associated with the 3TG materials used in our products:

Further integrate our conflict minerals compliance requirements into Lear's global supply chain.

Continue to strengthen our engagement and collaboration with key relevant suppliers and new suppliers regarding conflict minerals reporting requirements.

Explore advanced risk assessment tools to better identify and evaluate potential risks within our supply chain.

Continue to engage with AIAG RMWG, RMI, CLEPA and Drive+ and provide input on various relevant topics and projects, such as outreach efforts, industry best practices, the

10


Exhibit 1.01
development of guidance and resources for the supply base and the coordination of processes to align with industry peers globally.

Continue to partner with relevant suppliers to facilitate continued improvement on response rate and to encourage these suppliers to work towards 100% identification of SORs in their supply chains.

Lear is committed to using only components with raw materials where extraction, transport, trade, processing and export are obtained from validated sources as a matter of principle, where practicable.


Section 5: Due Diligence Results

Lear has conducted the RCOI and due diligence efforts outlined in this Report to determine whether any of the 3TG used in its products originated from DRC or DRC Covered Countries or from recycled or scrap sources.

Lear continues to identify a significant number of SORs and remains committed to improving its processes to mitigate risks associated with conflict minerals through continued focus on the following activities:

Enhancing capacity through continued education and outreach within its supply base
Reinforcing Lear’s sourcing policies and supplier requirements
Engaging eligible SORs to participate in the RMAP process
Continuing assessment of potential areas for improvement within its business practices to ensure responsible sourcing and compliance with applicable conflict minerals regulations

RESPONSIBLE MATERIALS SOURCING POLICY
On August 22, 2012, under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the final rule to impose disclosure and reporting requirements related to conflict minerals (tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold). The rule requires U. S. publicly traded companies to disclose the presence of conflict minerals originating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) or adjoining countries in the products they manufacture, if the conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of such products.

As a supplier in the automotive and non-automotive industries, Lear uses a wide variety of materials in the products it manufactures. The supply chain for these materials is complex.

It is Lear's policy to comply with the disclosure and reporting requirements of Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as well as all rules of the SEC promulgated under such Act. Lear works to prevent incidents or conditions that might result in a violation of law. Lear requires legal and ethical sourcing of materials in our supply chain. Lear requires its suppliers to engage in due diligence of their supply chains to understand and report the content of their parts supplied to Lear.

We expect suppliers to source responsibly and ensure that materials used in our products do not directly or indirectly contribute funding to conflicts or human rights abuses. Lear requires suppliers to perform due diligence on the source and chain of custody of their raw materials in accordance with all applicable laws, as well as the "Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas" of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and other relevant guidance.

Suppliers are required to cooperate with Lear’s direct audit or through a third-party auditing firm utilized by Lear.

Compliance, Monitoring and Reporting
We comply with all applicable legal requirements and work to prevent incidents or conditions that might result in a violation of law. We monitor our operations and our suppliers for potential violations and take action if violations occur, up to and including termination of employment or contract.

We have established a process for reporting concerns about any potential human rights or business risks through a Compliance and Ethics Hotline. Employees, suppliers, and business partners can make anonymous reports in their respective language via a toll-free phone call, e-mail, online website or regular mail. Lear requires its suppliers to make this reporting resource available to its employees and upstream supply chain, with consideration for individuals with limited access and disabilities.

We have a strong anti-retaliation policy and will not tolerate retaliation against anyone who in good faith raises a concern, reports misconduct or participates in an investigation.

We report our actions and engagement with suppliers in our Annual Sustainability Report. We also publish on our website our values, principles, policies, and practices that this Policy reinforces.

HUMAN RIGHTS POLICY

Be Inclusive. Be Inventive. Get Results the Right Way. These are Lear Corporation’s core values and the foundation to our long-term success. As part of our commitment To Get Results the Right Way, we respect and reinforce human rights throughout our operations, our communities in which we operate, and our global supply chain. We also embrace the international human rights principles expressed in the following conventions:

The Ten Principles of the United Nations Global Compact of which Lear is a participant;
The Universal Declaration of Human Rights;
The International Labour Organization’s 1988 Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work; and
The United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals.

We apply this policy throughout our company, the entities that we own, and the entities in which we hold a majority interest and to anyone who represents and works with Lear, including employees, officers, directors, and business partners. This policy is overseen by Lear’s Board of Directors.

Workforce Diversity, Equity and Inclusion
At Lear, we made Be Inclusive our first core value to emphasize the importance we place on maintaining a diverse workforce and an equitable and inclusive workplace. We know that the strength of our company lies in the diversity of our team and our ongoing efforts to always Be Inclusive and equitable. We provide all employees with a professional working environment which is free from discrimination and harassment. We offer fair and equal employment opportunity to every person regardless of race, sex, color, veteran status, national origin, disability or health status, sexual orientation, gender identification or expression, age, religion or religious beliefs, genetic information, political affiliation, or any other legally protected status. Consistent with this, and recognizing, in particular, the discrimination that women frequently experience, we support women’s rights, such as support for equal pay. We make all hiring, compensation, promotion, and other employment decisions based on qualifications, performance, skills, experience, and other permissible factors. We follow all employment laws wherever we conduct business.

We provide our employees with and encourage them to join several employee-led groups made up of individuals who share common interests, backgrounds such as veteran status or demographic factors such as gender, race or age. Through these Employee Resource Groups, our employees are heard, valued and engaged in driving the company’s success.

Coercion, Harassment and Discipline

19


Exhibit 1.01
We treat employees with dignity and respect. We do not tolerate physically, mentally, emotionally or otherwise abusive practices toward any of our employees (including members of a union), including by any private or public security personnel we may utilize. We have systems in place to prevent, detect, report and resolve unacceptable employee treatment such as unlawful acts, harassment or discrimination, workplace violence, inappropriate use of discipline, mental or physical coercion as a form of discipline, physical or mental punishment, physical or verbal abuse or intimidation, and any type of corporal punishment. To ensure robust reporting by our employees, we forbid retaliation against anyone who in good faith reports or cooperates in an investigation of such mistreatment. We take appropriate corrective action in response to any findings of unacceptable employee treatment or retaliatory action. See the Harassment-Free Workplace Policy.

Wages, Hours, and Working Conditions
We comply with all applicable wage and hour laws, including equal pay, minimum wage, overtime, maximum hour rules, meal and rest periods. We also provide legally mandated benefits. Where local industry standards exceed applicable legal requirements, Lear pays fair wages and ensures working conditions that are competitive with the higher local industry standards.

We employ ethical recruitment practices. We prohibit recruiters from charging recruitment fees to potential employees and from withholding identity documents. Where our employees have written employment contracts, we provide access to those contracts.

Employee Health and Safe Workplace
The safety and health of our employees is of paramount importance. We will not put employees in a situation that could be harmful to their well-being. We believe that safe workplaces are a result of the dedication of everyone at Lear. We make it our responsibility to embed safe behaviors in everything we do, coupled with strong programs, operating discipline, robust communications and training, and compliance with applicable safety and health laws and regulations. We know that working together, we can mitigate or eliminate hazards and risks, and get results the right way. See the EHSS Policy.

Privacy
We respect the privacy of individuals, including employees and customers. We follow globally recognized privacy principles and implement reasonable and appropriate practices in our collection, use, and sharing of personal information about individuals.

Child Labor
We prohibit child labor in any of our facilities worldwide and meet all applicable laws regarding minimum age for employment in all countries and regions where we conduct business.

Forced Labor and Human Trafficking
We believe that all employees should have the right to voluntarily elect whether to be employed by Lear. We do not use forced or involuntary labor of any kind, including prison labor, indentured labor, bonded labor, military labor, modern forms of slavery and any form of human trafficking. See the Transparency in Supply Chains Act Disclosure.

Freedom of Association and Collective Bargaining
We respect employees’ right to form, join or not to join a union, or to have recognized employee representation in accordance with local law. We are committed to maintaining a constructive dialogue and to negotiate in good faith

20


Exhibit 1.01
with employees’ freely chosen representatives. We do not harass, discriminate against, or otherwise penalize employees, their representatives, or union members because of their interest and/or membership in, or affiliation with, a union, or their legitimate union activity, in accordance with international and local labor standards.

Responsible Sourcing
We source responsibly and ensure that materials used in our products do not directly or indirectly provide funding to conflicts or human rights abuses. We endeavor to use only components with raw materials where extraction, transport, trade, processing and export are obtained from validated sources as a matter of principle, wherever practicable. We do not use materials prohibited by applicable national or international law.

We are committed to protecting the environment, including forests (see our No Deforestation Policy), land, water and other biodiversity, and expect our suppliers to do the same. We believe access to clean water is a fundamental human right. We do not permit forced evictions or illegal deprivations of land within our operations or our supply chains, and are committed to respecting the rights of vulnerable groups around the world, such as indigenous groups and other minorities.

As part of our responsible sourcing efforts, we follow the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains of Minerals from Conflict-Affected and High-Risk Areas. We also participate in industry-driven initiatives (e.g. Responsible Minerals Initiative) that validate and establish industry-wide control systems and transparency over the upstream supply chain such as chain of custody or traceability systems. See the Responsible Materials Sourcing Policy and Supplier Sustainability Policy.

We expect our suppliers to align themselves with our commitments to human rights, including as to responsible sourcing, and to pass this requirement on to their own suppliers.

Compliance, Monitoring and Reporting
We comply with all applicable legal requirements and prohibit incidents or conditions that might result in a violation of law. We put in place several reporting mechanisms and have strong anti-retaliation policies. We monitor our operations, our partners and our suppliers for potential violations and take action if violations occur, up to and including termination of employment or contract.

We provide multiple channels for reporting concerns about any potential human rights or business risks. Employees, suppliers, business partners or any potentially affected party worldwide can make confidential and anonymous reports in their language via our Ethics & Compliance helpline (online or telephone), online complaint webform, email, a mobile intake app, or regular mail. Access to these complaint reporting channels is proactively communicated, and reports received through these channels are appropriately and transparently reviewed. We review the effectiveness of the existing complaint reporting channels annually and on an ad hoc basis.

21


Exhibit 1.01
Reporting
We report our actions and engagement on human rights in our annual sustainability report. We also publish on our website our values, principles, policies, and practices that this policy reinforces. See Lear’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.
