Better Health for All

Level 3 Communications (now Lumen Technologies) is a telecommunications provider, and its core business does not directly involve health products or services. Consequently, its principal goods and services have a neutral health impact. The company does not generate revenue from harmful health products, nor do its services carry direct health risks for users, or require health-related pricing accessibility or risk transparency. It is not a pharmaceutical, food, or clinical research organization, and its products do not have addiction potential, making several health-related KPIs not applicable. While the company participates in programs like E-Rate and Rural Healthcare to provide telecommunications access to healthcare facilities in underserved areas

, the provided articles do not offer specific, quantifiable data on the reach to vulnerable populations or the scale and quality of health equity programs, leading to their omission. No specific data was found regarding health innovation investment, health externalities, healthcare workforce support, global health crisis response, mental health initiatives, or healthcare education.

Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing

The provided articles do not contain specific quantitative data for any of the Fair Trade & Ethical Sourcing KPIs. While L3Harris (LVLT.US) emphasizes ethical supply chains

, has a supplier code of conduct addressing conflict minerals and human trafficking , and is a CTPAT Tier III member , there is no information on fair-trade certification share, audit frequency, forced/child labor incidents, traceability coverage, remediation speed, ethical clause coverage percentage, materials risk index, or supplier diversity spend.

Kind to Animals

No specific, concrete data points were found in the provided articles to score any of the KPIs related to the 'Kind to Animals' ethical value. While the company is a communications provider, and some articles mention general environmental mitigation efforts during network construction or philanthropic support for 'animal welfare' as a cause area (e.g., Level 3 Foundation's $250,000 employee contribution match in 2015

), this information does not provide measurable outcomes, percentages, or specific policies required by the rubric's KPIs, such as cruelty-free certifications, animal testing volumes, humane certifications, or quantifiable wildlife conservation impacts. The articles do not explicitly state the absence of animal-derived products, animal testing, or animal agriculture operations, which would be required to assign a '0' (N/A) tier.

No War, No Weapons

The provided articles detail supply chain management practices, ethical standards, and compliance measures for L3Harris Technologies.

However, the company being assessed is LVLT.US (Level 3 Communications), which is now part of Lumen Technologies. As the articles pertain to a different entity (L3Harris) and explicitly state they contain no specific data relevant to LVLT.US, no evidence is available to score LVLT.US against the defined KPIs.
