Ethical Profile

Mixed.

Arbe Robotics Ltd. primarily develops 4D imaging radar for civilian autonomous vehicles. While its technology has potential dual-use applications, there's no explicit evidence of current military involvement. A 2019 survey indicates Arbe will sign agreements confirming non-military use with customers. The company states it works with partners upholding social responsibility and is working towards conflict-free mineral sourcing. However, critics point to the inherent risks of dual-use technology and the potential for civilian harm from inaccurate data in AI systems.

No evidence available to assess Arbe Robotics Ltd. on Better Health for All.

Fair Money & Economic Opportunity

0

Arbe Robotics Ltd. is a fabless semiconductor company that develops 4D imaging radar solutions for autonomous vehicles, primarily serving automotive manufacturers and technology companies. Its core business does not involve providing financial services, lending, or deposit services to consumers.

1
Therefore, all KPIs related to consumer financial products, services, or financial inclusion initiatives are not applicable to the company's operations, and no relevant evidence was found in the provided articles.
2

Fair Pay & Worker Respect

0

No specific, quantitative data points were provided in the articles for any of the KPIs under the 'Fair Pay & Worker Respect' value. Information regarding living wage coverage, CEO-median pay ratio, collective bargaining share, safety incident rate, pay equity ratio, worker engagement score, turnover rate, labor violation incidents, insecure contract share, or health insurance coverage was not available.

1
While CEO compensation was mentioned in multiple articles, median employee compensation was not, preventing the calculation of a pay ratio.
2
Employee review ratings from Glassdoor were provided, but the article explicitly stated 'No data available' for the worker engagement score KPI, and these ratings do not constitute a formal 'employee-survey engagement/satisfaction index' as required by the rubric.
3
Furthermore, the absence of mention of regulatory actions or violations in one article does not constitute concrete evidence of zero incidents across all sources.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

0

No specific, quantifiable data points were found in the provided articles to assess Arbe Robotics Ltd. against the 'Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing' value. While the company's Code of Ethics and Conduct, adopted on August 31, 2021,

1
emphasizes ethical conduct and fair dealing with suppliers,
2
it does not provide details on fair-trade certifications,
3
supplier audit frequency,
4
forced or child labor incidents,
5
supply chain traceability,
6
remediation speed,
7
ethical clause coverage in supplier contracts,
8
materials risk,
9
or supplier diversity spend.
10
Therefore, no KPIs could be scored based on the available evidence.

The provided articles do not contain specific, quantifiable data points that align with the defined KPIs in the rubric for "Planet-Friendly Business." While one article mentions compliance with RoHS and REACH directives and the absence of Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) above 0.1% in products, these facts do not directly map to any of the provided KPIs, which require specific numerical values such as total GHG emissions, percentage of renewable energy, water use per revenue, or a count of environmental compliance violations.
