Employees receive regular training and materials as part of our antitrust and competition law compliance program, and are responsible for being aware of the risk and costs of violating the laws. We disclose all material litigation and legal proceedings in our periodic filings to the SEC.
GRI 207: TAX
207-1	Approach to tax	In addition to providing employment and fostering economic activity, we also support the communities in which we operate through a variety of federal, state and local tax payments. Our approach to tax planning is to develop tax-efficient solutions that support our company’s operational initiatives and goals and minimize our consolidated tax risks and liabilities. Our corporate tax policies and strategy are rooted in our company’s Code of Ethics. We observe all applicable tax rules and regulations in the jurisdictions in which we have a tax presence. We have a low tolerance for tax risk. We strive to obtain certainty for our financial reporting obligations and prevent any potential negative impacts to our shareholders and our company’s reputation. Our tax strategy includes: Satisfying all income tax reporting and filing obligations in a timely manner and in accordance with laws and regulations Mitigating tax risk through thoughtful implementation and documentation, proactive involvement in legislation, and participation in current audit programs with federal, state and local governments Ensuring sustainable, arms-length pricing on intercompany transactions For U.S. federal and state income tax purposes, we have elected to be taxed as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) and continue to operate in a manner that qualifies us for REIT status. As such, a significant portion of our income is not subject to corporate income tax, provided we distribute our taxable income to our shareholders. Risk Management
207-2	Tax governance, control, and risk management	The Chief Financial Officer ensures compliance with strategy. Tax risks are part of the enterprise risk assessment conducted with our senior management team and board of directors. Anyone can confidentially and anonymously report unethical or unlawful behavior or integrity in relation to tax to Weyerhaeuser EthicsOnline or call our EthicsLine at 800-716-3488.

GRI 305: EMISSIONS
305-1	Direct (Scope 1) GHG emissions	Improving Air Quality	We utilize World Resources Institute (WRI) standards and the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Accounting and Reporting Standard to calculate our annual greenhouse gas emission inventory. Gases included in the calculations include carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄) and nitrous oxide (N₂O). We use National Council for Air and Stream Improvement, Inc. (NCASI) calculation tools for estimating greenhouse gas emissions from wood products facilities and a NCASI tool to calculate carbon stored in forest products. Our estimates of greenhouse gas emissions and carbon sequestration represent our corporate carbon scope 1 (direct) and scope 2 (purchased electricity) inventory. They do not include emissions not owned or controlled by Weyerhaeuser. Our Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG-generating emissions include stationary sources, mobile sources and process emissions, including all Weyerhaeuser-owned industrial stationary sources that combust fossil fuels and burn biomass in the U.S. and Canada; all Weyerhaeuser-owned landfills; mobile sources, including Weyerhaeuser aviation, logging trucks and company-owned and -leased vehicles; fertilizer application (e.g., N₂O emissions) on Weyerhaeuser Timberlands; purchased electricity; and purchased steam. Weyerhaeuser utilizes a threshold of significance and assumes that any source of emissions that represents less than 2 percent of total annual emissions is de minimis and will not be included in the inventory. Our greenhouse gas inventory process adheres to the guidelines published by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol Initiative's Greenhouse Gas Protocol Corporate Standard, Revised Edition, and its associated calculation tools that are relevant to our operations. Following the protocol, adjustments to the baseline year and subsequent years’ data have been made on a whole-year basis for divestments and acquisitions affecting our greenhouse gas inventory. In 2017, we also adjusted our baseline and all subsequent years to correctly account for the appropriate eGRID emission factors for the closest respective year; previously, we had incorrectly recalculated all years with the most recent eGRID emission factors. The absolute value of our entire greenhouse gas emission inventory can change because of these adjustments. We know forests sequester and release carbon in variable amounts over time. The rate of forest carbon sequestration is subject to seasonal variation, annual variation due to climate and disturbance impacts, age-related variation due to the natural cycle of tree growth, and effects from forest management practices such as fertilization and harvesting. The U.S. Department of Energy 1605(b) guidelines affirm that sustainably managed forests balance harvest and growth cycles over time and landscape and can be considered carbon neutral, meaning the carbon that is released from harvesting is offset by the growth of the remaining trees. To quantify the amount of long-term forest products carbon stored in our products – which we call Product Sequestration – we use the U.S. Forest Service 100-year average carbon storage estimates approach and a tool produced by a research organization supporting our industry.

In 2013, we evaluated including Scope 3 categories into our GHG inventory, based on WRI’s Corporate Value Chain (Scope 3) Accounting and Reporting Standard. Eight of the fifteen Scope 3 categories were considered related to our company, but we have chosen not to initiate this work until customer requests increase to a significant level and industry-specific guidelines are developed to ensure comparability with other forest product companies. We are a large, vertically integrated company, with most of our value chain embedded in our company. Most of our suppliers are small forest landowners, who are already helping reduce the risk of climate change by managing forestlands — nature’s best carbon-capturing systems.

401-3	Parental leave	As of Jan. 1, 2020, Weyerhaeuser offers paid parental leave: All U.S. nonunion employees can take up to four weeks of fully paid leave upon the arrival of a new child or children in their family. (Canadian employees receive parental leave in accordance with provincial employment standards.) This is in addition to our current six-week disability leave for birth mothers, our adoption assistance program and other family-related benefits.
GRI 402: LABOR/MANAGEMENT RELATIONS
402-1	Minimum notice periods regarding significant operational changes	Our labor contracts generally require 5- to 10-day advance notice to change employees' scheduled hours of work. In addition, the U.S. WARN Act requires 60-day notice of covered plant closings and covered mass layoffs. If the company needs to curtail operations sooner, we pay employees for the notice period.

Disability Management, Benefits, Workers Compensation and Occupational Health all operate under their appropriate confidentiality processes with information firewalls. Employee occupational medical records required by OSHA regulations are maintained by designated company medical records custodians. Employee medical information and human resources files are maintained separately. US employees are informed of their right to access medical records in accordance with OSHA regulations. Consulting occupational health nurse(s) and in-house health professionals, such as industrial hygienists, practice under their respective ethics codes and professional practice requirements to maintain confidentiality. The company has a guidance document, Privacy Guidelines for Safety Reporting, that provides guidance on privacy issues in preparing reports and alerts.
403-4	Worker participation, consultation, and communication on occupational health and safety	It is an expectation that each manufacturing site has an active health and safety committee perform planned activities in support of their site’s risk-based safety plans, including regular workplace audits, as well as fulfilling any auditing requirements in accordance with OSHA or provincial requirements. Auditors verify through meeting minutes, action plans and interviews that: the safety committee meets monthly; the committee consists of a cross-section of employees, representing different departments, functions and shifts; the chair is someone other than a member of the site leadership team; and there are written guidelines outlining the committee's objectives, authority and responsibilities. Employees and leadership must consider the committee to be effective in addressing site issues and a group whose decisions are acted upon. The results of a 2020 safety goal for employee involvement showed 82 percent of sites meeting the criteria of 90 percent + employee involvement.
403-5	Worker training on occupational health and safety	Data: Training & Education We use a Safety Training Matrix to identify mandatory training for all employees, and safety training programs are updated annually. There were 23,149 online safety trainings completed in 2020.

The provincial governments grant many entities, including Weyerhaeuser, the rights to operate in these forests. The laws applied to land management are strict and are reflected in agreements and contracts with the provincial government.
