Multinational Crown Holdings has been sneaking into the list of most responsible companies 2023 according to Newsweek.
Newsweek presented the fourth annual list recognizing the best organizations in the United States. 2,000 organizations were selected that stood out for their outstanding and voluntary efforts in their respective industries in corporate social responsibility and sustainability. The final list included 500 companies from 14 different industrial sectors, with the majority belonging to the materials and chemicals sector. This recognition emphasizes Crown’s own commitments to its workforce and operational impact, as well as the manufacturing industry’s progress and leadership around broader sustainability goals.
The more than 30 KPIs used for the assessment focused specifically on company performance in the environmental, social and corporate governance areas. In addition, an independent survey was conducted to assess the reputation of companies by asking U.S. citizens about their perception of the work the company performs.
Upon review, Crown scored in the top 15% in the corporate governance category. This position reflects high ratings in disclosure and transparency, including compliance guidelines, anti-corruption and active participation in the United Nations Global Compact. All scores demonstrate Crown’s areas of strength and achievement, even without taking into account the latest sustainability report that documents additional progress toward its goals.
“We are honored by this recognition from Newsweek and to be distinguished alongside many prestigious companies with a dedication to corporate stewardship,” said John Rost, Ph.D., Crown’s vice president of Global Sustainability and Regulatory Affairs. “Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do, and we continue to take our performance to the next level. This ranking emphasizes the critical importance of enacting clear and precise goals for employee safety, a healthy work environment and sustainability. We continue to accelerate our company’s progress through constant dedication and innovation, and we look forward to the next steps that propel us toward our goals.” he added.
